Validated Industries
Testing is more precise because we can choose the specific industry or job against which to screen, knowing that the test has been fully validated against that industry.
Since the mid-1980s, Assess Systems have been involved in the development of tailored selection systems for client companies. In each case, as part of the project, we were asked to develop and validate work personality tests. These projects were conducted in a variety of industries.
While in each validation study a custom selection tool was developed to meet the unique aspects of a particular job, it became increasingly apparent that these instruments shared in common many work-personality dimensions. These dimensions are the prediction of productivity, cooperative work behaviours and integrity.
Each SELECT test measures both those common dimensions predictive of performance in most entry-level jobs, as well as unique dimensions specific to the particular job for which it has been validated.
