WHS - Psychometric Assessment

Psychometric Assessment

Many employers are interested in different personality traits as indicators of job-relevant behaviours. Our organisational psychologists use standardised measures that assess different personality traits that are relevant to occupational settings. Employers often use personality tests for recruitment, to see how well job applicants fit the role they are applying for, or for coaching and development purposes.

Psychometric tests are a standard and scientific method used to measure individual mental capabilities and behavioural style. They are designed to measure candidates' suitability for a role based on the required personality characteristics and aptitude (or cognitive abilities). 

Altius Psychometric Testing:

  • Identifies the extent to which a candidate's personality and cognitive abilities match those required to perform the role.
  • Provides employers with information to identify the hidden aspects of candidates that are difficult to extract from a face-to-face interview.
  • Helps guide the recruitment process as well as career transition and outplacement.
