Cutting down recruitment time with online assessments

In the world of graduate recruitment, time is often of the essence.  With hundreds of applications to get through, following a traditional approach to graduate recruitment can take many weeks and cost your company numerous lost hours.  Talent Technologies can offer you an easier way with a range of online assessments from Previsor, a leading provider of pre-employment assessment and selection solutions.

 How do Previsor’s online assessments work?

·       By combining cognitive abilities and personality dimensions into one assessment, the first stage of PreVisor’s online testing  takes graduates only 20 minutes to complete. This is what we refer to as a 'screening' assessment.

·     Recruiters are then presented with a stack ranked list of applicants helping to determine who will go through to the next stage of testing, the 'selection' assessment. The selection assessment is a longer (aproximately 50 minutes) assessment measuring a wider range of competencies.

·     The results from this second stage of testing (which also include a mix of cognitive ability and personality) are compared not only to the pool of your current applicants but also to a norm group of over 10,000 New Zealand and Australian graduates.

 How could Previsor’s assessments help you?

·        Get your job offers out before your competition.  By providing you with a ranked list of candidates, Previsor will rapidly help you to identify which candidates make it through to the second stage of recruitment without you needing to physically score each candidate.  The time saved in the recruitment process means you get in touch with the best candidates before your competition does.

·        Get through higher volumes of candidates.  With all testing and scoring happening online, you can simply download the results and pick the highest scoring candidates to progress through to the interview stage. Wave goodbye to spending hours sifting through hundreds of CV's that look the same.

·        Return on investment.  Client based return on investment studies consistently show as much as 50% time and cost savings from using Previsor assessments and an improvement of leadership in new hires of up to 60%.

·        Customised assessments and reporting.  Previsor assessments can be customised to suit your corporate culture and job descriptions, thereby predicting those candidates who would suit your company’s specific needs.

·        Test cognitive and personality traits in one test.  By offering integrated assessments, Previsor saves time for both you and the candidates.

·        Compare candidates with appropriate benchmarks.  With a norm group of over 10,000 New Zealand and Australian graduates, Previsor offers you the peace of mind that your candidates are being ranked appropriately.
