It is important to ensure that behavioral assessments are both reliable and valid. You also need to include behavioral assessments in your hiring process because they measure attributes that are difficult to quantify. However, skills tests do not tell you whether a candidate is a good fit for the job or your corporate culture. The results of a Gallup poll showed companies that use skills testing average of 33% higher revenue per employee and saw a 17% increase in productivity. Skills tests give you a way to compare candidates based on their demonstrated skills, rather than relying solely on their resumes, which may not always be an accurate reflection of a person’s abilities. Adding behavioral assessment tests to your company’s hiring process is a powerful way to ensure that you find the candidates with the best Job Fit-or suitability-for your open positions.
