Tests

This questionnaire has been developed to explore all facets which determines a persons personality. This way you gain more insight into how a person will probably react and behave in a certain situation. Our report consists of 15 factors measuring personality and an extra factor consistency measuring the reliability of the results. The test will take approximately 25 minutes.

Constructive feedback is essential for personal development. This questionnaire provides detailed feedback on a candidates skills, abilities, personality, motivation, and other work-related characteristics, from a number of different perspectives. The candidate will receive feedback on how he / she sees herself, but also on how others (managers, colleagues, and employees (internal) customers.) see the candidate. It is based on the analysis of the scores on the recently completed questionnaire by the candidate and other people. In addition, the importance of a competency for a function is assessed, strengths and weaknesses are identified and a Personal Development Plan is initiated. This questionnaire will take approximately 25 minutes..

Ability tests are the most effective predictors of success in a job. This has been scientifically proven numerous times. Ability Analysis is a cognitive ability test that measures how quickly a person can comprehend problems, formulate an opinion and/or learn new things etc. With each question the candidate is challenged a bit extra. So the questions are not too easy or too difficult. This test will take approximately 75 minutes.

Appraisal is another word for 90-degrees feedback. Constructive feedback is essential for personal development. This report provides detailed feedback on skills, abilities, personality, motivation and other work-related characteristics from several perspectives. The candidate will receive feedback on how he / she sees herself but also of/on how the manager sees the candidate. It is perfect input for the performance and assessment cycle. This questionnaire will take approximately 25 minutes.

This is an online personality questionnaire. This instrument presents the scores of the candidate based on the five major factors of personality for behaviour in the workplace; the Big Five (Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness, Adjustment and Conscientiousness). In the Big Fifty Personality report the candidates personality profile is translated into competencies. For each competency there is an indication of the extent to which the employee can develop the competency given his/her personality. This questionnaire will take approximately 20 minutes.

Candidates are presented with a host of situations, representative of difficulties and challenges they most likely will encounter in the course of their jobs. In these filmed situations, an actor speaks to them directly. After having seen the film, candidates can immediately respond to the situations, this response is recorded by a webcam. A brief description and example of what kind of reaction was favourable for the particular situation is shown, as well as indicators of a favourable reaction. In this way, trainees can compare their own reaction to the favourable one, which gives them immediate feedback as to how they performed. New recordings can be made, until the candidate is satisfied with his or her reaction.
Currently, a version exists for sales skills. In our opinion, the tool will be useful for other skills, such as leadership skills and general social competencies in a work environment as well.

 Opportunities offered by this method are:

Candidates can take the training individually, without supervision. The means the method is very flexible: candidates can complete it at a place and time of their choosing.
The CamCoach can be offered as an option in a development program in which trainees can compose their own program.
The CamCoach can be used as preparation to a training program. By assigning trainees the CamCoach before starting training, a basic skills level can be achieved. Candidates can more easily identify learning points when they have already had to deal with practice situations.
It can be used as part of a training.  Advantages compared to traditional role-play situations are that everyone will have a chance to participate in every situation.  After this, an actual role-play could take place. A larger learning effect can be achieved in this case, since candidates will be less bothered by cold feet. It can be used as part of an individual coaching programme. The CamCoach offers an opportunity to prepare for an assessment.

This comprehensive questionnaire matches several important domains in psychometrics. Results are based on three questions: Who am I? (personality), What am I capable of? (behaviour) and What do I want? (motivation). These domains are queried through 3 different questionnaires. All results are combined into different kind of job families. Every combination corresponds with specific jobs. Our report also shows matching and non-matching job (families). The results of our Career Interest questionnaire can be used as input for our Employability solution.

The candidate will take a career values test. This instrument offers support in answering the question of whether specific functions, roles or organizations match the values that a person wants to realize in his/her career. This test will take approximately 15 minutes.

The Career Pointer offers a helping hand by indicating on which job one could succesfully orientate themselvesfinding, offering concrete information on best matching job (offers). Job indicators link directly to relevant offers on job portals. Results indicate to which extent the candidate is open to a change of role or job field and to which extent he or she is able to take systematical action steps or ability to talk to others. The candidate will receive specific tips for courses of action suited to his/her way of openness and willingness to act.

The Career Scan can be used when the candidate wants to gain insight if a current job matches with his or her personality, competencies and values or whether another job or career might fit better. The Career Scan looks for three levels of relevant input needed to select the appropriate development activities, to prepare for an appraisal meeting or for making a more than educated guess with respect to training or education. Use of the Career Scan is particularly sensible for personal reorientation with regards to current and future job activities or outplacement in the event of forced exit procedures.
The Career Scan provides an overview of the candidates’ most preferred career values, his or her set of personality traits and the level to which extent he or she possesses or lacks relevant competencies. The outcome of this analysis provides a well balanced advice on the type of job areas that fit most or least. The report also indicates potential, both in terms of managerial skills as well as professional growth. The information will be presented in a clear and graphic overview by means of simple and short textual references in highlighted boxes.

Career Values offers support for answering questions if certain job profiles, roles or organisational values match with those values sought after by the candidate in his or her career. The results of eight core career values are shown in order of priority – that is to say: expertise, management, entrepreneurial skills, dedication, challenge, balance in work and private affairs, security, independence – ranging from most to least important. The instrument can be used for individuals seeking answers on job or career choices. For teams or groups it can be used to measure to which extent individual choices are coherent or differential with reference to their colleagues or organisational values. The preference priority setting is represented on one page in a well-organized graphic overview with concrete suggestions and tips.

Two factors have emerged from studies on human relationships. One factor is about control, influence and dominance and the other is about intimacy and affection. In this report the two factors are compared and translated into 8 different communication styles. This questionnaire will take approximately 15 minutes.

The Competency Check is often called the 0-degrees feedback. During this check the candidate will assess his/her own behaviour. Contrary to the 360 Feedback and Appraisal the candidates workplace is not involved. This report produces detailed feedback on skills, abilities, personality, motivation, and other work-related characteristics. The candidate will receive feedback on how he / she sees herself. This questionnaire will take approximately 15 minutes.

This questionnaire is designed to analyze individual behavior in conflict situations. These are situations in which the interests of two persons do not align. The displayed behavior is a result of personal preference and the situation that the person finds themselves in. This questionnaire will help to analyze the mix of conflict styles. The score on one of the five conflict styles indicates how this style can be of use to you and how it can be managed.

Using our Reference Check will allow you to query a contact in an objective manner. Also it is an optimal preparation for calling a referent. This check will take approximately 15 minutes.

To gain insight into their own capabilities, employees should be able to systematically evaluate their own competencies. But that is just one possible perspective. For a more balanced view, it is equally important to get the various individuals in the employees’ environment involved in the assessment – for example, supervisors, colleagues, employees and customers. The similarities and differences between the various perspectives – also known as 360-degree feedback – offer valuable starting points for discussions about the deployment and development of competencies.
The Reflector 360 provides input that can be used to select the correct personal development activities, to prepare for a performance interview or a career development session. In addition to that, the Reflector 360 can be used for an entire group or a team to see which competencies the group or team collectively masters, or which ones could be improved.
The Reflector 360 provides an overview of the differences between the respondent’s self-appraisal and how others in the immediate environment appraise the respondent: this includes an average across all the respondents as well as division into different groups in the immediate environment. This overview represents the competencies selected by the user and it includes the accompanying specific behavioural indicators. A special version for students is also available.

The information will be presented in a clear and graphic overview by means of simple and short textual references in highlighted boxes.

Which leadership roles fit and which ones do not? How much energy does it cost for one to grow in a certain role? Which personality traits lay at the foundation of a leadership profile? The Reflector Big Five Leadership helps to find the answers. The Reflector Big Five Leadership shows the amount of talent one has to develop and sustain behaviour connected to specific leadership roles. It also shows to which extent one is suited for a managerial or executive position.

Personality as the basis for success
Whether someone is capable showing specific leadership skills successfully, highly depends on his/her personality. The better personality traits fit a leadership role, the easier it will be for this person to show behaviour required for this particular role. The Reflector Big Five Leadership is based on the worldwide highly regarded Reflector Big Five Personality. This instrument is therefore effective, trustworthy, reliable and predictive.

SHL offers a wide range of ability testing methods, like the Checking Test. It measures an individual’s ability to quickly and accurately compare information such as numbers, letters and patterns, making it ideal for use when recruiting for clerical, data entry and purchasing roles. The Calculation Test assesses ability to perform numerical calculations swiftly and correctly, as required for day-to-day tasks in sectors such as retail, payroll and banking.
SHL has also extended the global reach of its existing Verify Verbal, Numerical and Inductive Reasoning tests. They have been launched in a range of new languages including Japanese, Thai and Russian meaning that these tools are more globally applicable and available in 25 languages.
The new Verify Checking and Calculation tests have been created with the same anti-cheat robustness as the existing Verify range. While the main assessment is completed remotely, each Verify test comes with an optional, free, shorter, ‘supervised’ follow-up assessment usually taken at the employer’s premises. This follow-up test allows employers to check that the person who takes the supervised Verification test is of the same ability as the person who has taken the initial unsupervised online test.

The SHL Verify Range of Ability Tests comprises reasoning tests designed for administration online and to be resistant to cheating and piracy of content. SHL Verify consists of two stages:
The SHL Verify Ability Test (VAT) is intended for administration online and unsupervised. These tests are drawn from an item bank that provides different but equivalent tests administered randomly to candidates. This feature has been designed to minimise the ability of candidates to access answers to tests, and to reduce the ability of candidates to collude through the exchange of answers to items.
The SHL Verify Verification Test (VVT) is a short test that has been designed to offer an equivalent and supervised follow-up assessment to the VAT. This test checks the consistency of scores from the first unsupervised online test and flags inconsistent scores for follow up.
The Verify Range of Ability Tests currently comprises 3 individual measures of reasoning; Verbal, Numerical and Inductive Reasoning. The 3 tests can be administered either separately or in any combination driven by the requirements for an assessment.
Inductive reasoning extends the range of assessments available from the Verify range to include the ability to work with problems that are novel and that require individuals to work from first principles in order to reach a solution.

Both the Verbal and Numerical tests are examples of deductive reasoning measures. Broadly speaking, this is the ability to work with problems that are bounded and where methods or rules to reach a solution have been previously established.

The SHL Verify Range of Ability Tests comprises reasoning tests designed for administration online and to be resistant to cheating and piracy of content. SHL Verify consists of two stages:
The SHL Verify Ability Test (VAT) is intended for administration online and unsupervised. These tests are drawn from an item bank that provides different but equivalent tests administered randomly to candidates. This feature has been designed to minimise the ability of candidates to access answers to tests, and to reduce the ability of candidates to collude through the exchange of answers to items.

Webcamtest Management Skills consists of 10 situations. The duration to respond is about 45 minutes. A quiet place is required so that the candidates can give their answers without being disturbed.

Within the Webcamtest the candidate can demonstrate the competencies needed for a certain task or role in their work, for instance the role of a manager. Situational Judgment Tests (SJT’s) measure insight and not necessarily effective use of this insight in practice. The Webcamtest offers information about insight and the effective use of this insight.

Within the Webcamtest, short films of practical situations are presented. Professional actors were employed in filming the situations. During the short films the actor speaks to the candidate as in normal work situations. After seeing and hearing the situation, the candidate reacts spontaneously and verbally. This answer is recorded by a webcam (which is connected to the laptop computer) and uploaded to a server.

Running the Webcamtest is simple: after providing the answer, the candidate presses the “next” button and the next situation is displayed on the monitor. This situation, in turn, may be initiated by clicking on it. After completion of the Webcamtest, reactions are played back and evaluated by professional assessors. They rate independently of one another. The raters are working online, on the basis of a set of comprehensive scoring instructions.
The Webcamtest can be applied for selection and for coaching or training purposes.

Advantages of the Webcamtest over the assessment center are:

Limited operational costs:The actors have to play the situations only once.
Greater degree of standardization: Each candidate is presented with the same situations. This enhances the reliability of the measurements.
Increased flexibility: Assessors do not have to be present and can judge the material at a later point in time.
Greater breadth of information: More situations may be presented in a short period of time.
