PreVisor’s competency assessments measure multiple attributes such as personality, cognitive ability, past performance, and work-sample behaviours to determine a candidate’s suitability for a job role. Using this assessment test during selection will help you evaluate a candidate’s job fit. This thorough evaluation, particularly when combined with a Knowledge and Skills assessment test, reveals not only if the candidate can do the job, but also if they will do the job.

Personality - Knowing a candidate’s personality tendencies helps employers select and place applicants in positions where they are most likely to be motivated and successful. PreVisor's personality testing approach evaluates several factors such as emotional control, stress tolerance, self confidence, adaptability, independence, responsibility, initiative, competitiveness, social awareness, empathy, and influence.

Abilities - Cognitive ability is one of the most predictive worker traits, especially in more complex jobs. Along with specific abilities like numerical reasoning, verbal reasoning, and analytical ability, cognitive ability can tell you a lot about a candidate’s trainability and problem solving skills. PreVisor’s ability tests are frequently combined with other test types to maximise prediction of a variety of performance behaviours, while reducing the potential for adverse impact.

Behavioural - PreVisor has industry-leading biodata instruments that reveal a candidate’s past behaviour and performance to give employers insight into his or her potential for future success on the job. These assessments cover employment and educational background, key developmental experiences, and past achievements. PreVisor’s behavioural assessments also include immersive simulations and realistic situational judgment tests that provide additional information predictive of future performance.
