Why I Would Use Assessments Today
1. To provide more consistency within the selection and hiring process. Also, to get more people involved in the process when appropriate.
There are reliable pre-employment assessments available that generate legal interview questions. So while I could free up more of my time to perform other tasks I could also rest easier knowing that as long as the assessments were used as designed they were perfectly legal. Assessments also help provide stability to the process by providing consistent information. An organization will get the same type of information and insight about all their applicants. Flexible and convenient administration not only improves your selection process but can also shorten your selection process. Valid and reliable assessments can be a valuable addition to your current selection process.

2. To enable an organization to make better hiring and promotional decisions.
Unfortunately I am very familiar with what I would call a "hit and miss" interview and selection process. Never knew who might be doing the interviewing, never knew what questions might be asked and was certainly not sure whether we had selected the best candidate. We also promoted our best hourly employees and made them our weakest supervisors. How can it be that in six short months we went from praising and promoting John to asking him to clear out his desk? How many times did we hire or promote someone that did not meet our expectations? While using assessments is not an exact science, it can significantly increase your chances of selecting the right person for the right job. Studies show that in using only an interview, your odds of selecting a good hire is only about 1 in 7. Using valid tools for benchmarking and job match along with other resources can increase your odds to 3 out of 4. Assessments that allow for the development of customized job match patterns enable an organization to hire or promote individuals who can better meet the mental demands of the job, and who also have the behaviors and motivations to perform the necessary tasks with greater success.
