Degree of quality expressiveness is evaluated by the qualified specialists (external experts and employees of client organization) and conclusions about potential and personal-business qualities of separate workers as well as conclusions about personnel (managerial) potential of the organization are made on the basis of this evaluation.

The problems solved with the application of Assessment Center technology

 

 The main characteristics of Assessment Center technology

Formats of final conclusion:

1. A score of each examinee on competencies and criteria and ranked list. If it necessary- to evaluate criteria expressivity on any complex bases (for example, in mass personnel selection, in formation of reserve group in large number of candidates etc). Formation of group for development, groups for decision-making and risk group. Recommendations to executives for personnel decisions making.
