Aptitude Testing
An aptitude assessment measures a person’s fluid intelligence – how quickly they can learn and retain new skills and procedures. Aptitude tests are an accurate and reliable predictor of a person’s development potential.
Academic achievement whilst undoubtedly playing a large part in selection decisions is not a truly effective measure of a person’s mental ability and potential. Aptitude testing offers a more objective way to assess a candidate’s abilities.
Aptitude tests can provide the answers to question such as:
- Can this person think on their feet?
- Can they cope with the mental demands of the job?
- Could this person be a high flyer?
- Is this person a problem solver?
Assessments that evaluate aptitude, personality tests and ability measurements will arm you with the information needed to make objective and balanced recruitment and development decisions.
Using an aptitude assessment, test or measurement can have a radical impact on your business success. Contact us to find out how.
Where can you use an aptitude assessment?
Aptitude assessments can be used in succession planning and development as well as recruitment. It can assist in the resolution of issues across the organisation such as: high staff turnover, poor performance, ineffective management, succession planning, poor communication, selection and development.
What do aptitude tests measure?
These tests are designed to measure your potential rather than your knowledge. They commonly include verbal, numerical and reasoning tests. For example numerical tests are designed to measure how quickly and deftly your mind can manipulate numbers - not how accurately you can do algebra or quadratic equations.
An individual’s aptitude profile can tell you if that person is likely to be able to think on their feet and cope with the mental demands of the job.
The results are used to give employers an objective assessment of a candidate's abilities, and to enable fair comparisons between candidates.
