Using Proven Assessments – Online, Affordably and at Scale

Webcast Aired: December 6, 2011

Please note that the first five minutes of the webcast were not recorded; our apologies.

This webcast hosted by Dr. Charles Handler, President of Rocket-Hire and a thought leader in the pre-employment assessment space, provides attendees with a clear understanding of the value proposition for using a proven pre-employment assessment methodology.

Additional insights regarding assessments used for high-volume recruitment, and talent management, are provided by Paul Basile, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Matchpoint Careers, Inc., developer of the online solution for scientific recruiting and job-person matching.

Understanding validated assessments is important because they provide the best likelihood of identifying high performing employees, both in pre-employment and in talent management contexts. There is little if any debate on that fact. The ROI of validated assessments is among the highest that any organization can experience with any investment of any kind.

Yet assessments have long been considered complex and slow to implement, expensive and time consuming. That no longer need be the case. Scientific and technical advances now make assessments easy to use, affordable and robust even at a very large scale of operations. All organizations can, now, have world class hiring and talent management.

While the value of a good assessment strategy is proven, the details related to best practices can sometimes be confusing, especially to those who do not have experience with assessment. The goal of this webcast is to provide you with an easy way to understand the basics around assessment tools and how to use them effectively.

During the webcast, we cover the following:

• Understanding the value proposition for assessments
• Defining validity in terms you can understand
• Assessments simplified – the 4 steps to success
• Using technology to help support high volume hiring
