Assessment Centers for HR selection and personnel development

By means of assessment centers, skills and potentials of applicants and employees can be evaluated reliably even before a hiring decision. Immense costs caused by misplacements year in and year out can thus be avoided.

The method of assessment centers is to let candidates face simulated occupational and everyday-life like situations and job specific challenges. A panel of corporate decision-makers and experienced external specialists observe them in the process.

By comparing the observations with previously defined criteria, a differentiated profile of strengths and weaknesses can be created that provides important starting points for the upcoming HR decisions.
