Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Psychometric Test For Placement in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.

What topics are covered in the Psychometric Test For Placement?

Big 5 traits
The Big Five traits, also known as the Five Factor Model, is a framework used to describe human personality. It consists of five dimensions: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. These traits are important to measure in this test as they can help recruiters assess an individual's suitability for a particular job role based on their personality characteristics.
Data Interpretation
Data interpretation is the ability to analyze and make sense of complex sets of data. This skill is essential in many job roles, especially those that involve dealing with large amounts of data or making data-driven decisions. Assessing data interpretation skills in this test can help recruiters identify candidates who are proficient in analyzing data and drawing meaningful insights.
Numerical Reasoning
Numerical reasoning involves the ability to understand and manipulate numbers, and to use mathematical concepts to solve problems. This skill is crucial in jobs that require quantitative analysis, financial modeling, or statistical analysis. Evaluating numerical reasoning skills in this test allows recruiters to gauge a candidate's ability to work with numbers effectively and accurately.
Grammar
Grammar refers to the rules and structures that govern a language. Strong grammar skills are important in written communication, as they ensure clarity, accuracy, and coherence. Including a grammar component in this test enables recruiters to assess a candidate's proficiency in using grammar correctly, which is crucial in roles that involve written communication, such as content writing or editing.
Vocabulary
Vocabulary relates to a person's knowledge and understanding of words and their meanings. Having a rich vocabulary is beneficial for effective communication and comprehension.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
