PERSONALITY PROFILING

Psychometric testing is now used more and more as part of the recruitment and development processes, it helps companies and organisations identify talent and develop their full potential.
The term “psychometric” refers to the scientific features of reliability, validity and standardisation that are inherent in these tools.
Psychometric tests can be used to assess personality, intelligence, aptitude and specific skills. They typically fall into 3 main categories:

• Personality profiling measures typical behaviour and looks at how individuals relate to each other, deal with emotions (both their own and others), stress, their level of motivation etc. Whilst personality profiling is used extensively in selection, it is a very powerful tool in development.
• Aptitude and Ability testing assesses an individual’s ability in a particular skill, typically verbal, numerical and critical thinking skills. These tests look at both potential and current ability.
• 360 feedback provides a wide picture of performance gathered from a variety of sources.
