Assessments

A tool to help validate the skills of a candidate, yielding a better hiring decision

Why Use Assessments?

Most organizations use resumes and interviews to ascertain the qualifications of a candidate. Without a doubt, much can be gained about a person’s background, capabilities, and proficiency through this process.

But not all skills can be evaluated easily in an interview. Saying someone knows Excel is one thing, proving they can use it the way you need them to is another. Having a good rapport with a manager may not translate to how they will interact with an angry client on the phone.

Integral Recruiting Services knows that assessments are a component that helps in the hiring process, but shouldn’t be used as the sole criteria in most situations. We can provide assessments that help your organization to be sure that the professed skills of a candidate are backed up with objective criteria, in order to help make a good hiring decision. We can also help with employment background checks, credit checks and other screening services.

We can help you decide if an assessment will provide value and tell you more about your assessment options.
