Assessment centres
Successful recruitment of senior staff is vital. Far too often, this process is 'managed' by other senior staff and is based solely around aimless 'feel good' interviews that have poor structure and fail to provide consistent, objective assessment of the candidates. There is always scope for subjective, personal preference 'gut-feel' but if you use an assessment centre, at least you can apply the 'gut-feel' factor to a shortlist of appropriate candidates!
Outset has a wide range of HR skill sets, which are used on a daily basis in real businesses. We can draw on this experience to set up assessment centres that focus on the detailed specification (skills, knowledge, experience & personal attributes) required of the role for which you are recruiting.
Using a mix of assessment techniques (psychological tests, role plays, interviews, case studies presentations etc.) we will ensure that only candidates who are fit-for-[your]-purpose make the shortlist for final interview.
An added value by-product of this approach is that the client has a great profile of the successful candidate. Even 'the chosen one' will have some scope for improvement and the detailed profile can be used to highlight any personal development needs from day one.
