Psychometric Assessments: The Key to Identifying and Growing Real Talent

Organizations who fail to place a person in the right role incur a cost of at least 3 times their salary, 1st Executive research has found. Considering that average earnings are over $54, 000 per annum, employers are spending at least $150,000 for every employee that leaves their business.

The cost for senior sales people can be as much as ten times their annual salary.

Some other compelling reasons why you should consider Psychometric Testing when building your business are:

• 1st Executive’s independently commissioned report on Australians’ attitudes to work – The Great Divide, has found that for every 4 employees, 3 plan to leave inside two years. This means a medium sized organization with 100 employees will spend at least $11 million in the next 24 months.
• Placing the right person in the right role will save this cost, meaning investment can be used to grow and achieve business outcomes.
• Increasing competition from major employers for the shrinking talent pool means having the mechanism to attract, identify and retain key talent has never been more crucial.
• Psychometric testing is also invaluable in identifying Professional Development Plans, and building motivated, productive teams. 1st Executive has a suite of psychometric assessments that identify skills sets specific to different positions such as:

• Sales roles
• Managerial roles
• Technical roles
• Clerical roles

For clerical/Reception based roles, 1st Executive also has a suite of tests that measure the level of knowledge in the entire Microsoft Office suite.

Post-Testing Procedure

After testing is complete, 1st Executive will process the results which are benchmarked against Australian norm groups. The norm group selected will be dependent upon the role and will be decided after consultation with the client. A detailed report is then prepared and provided to the client and 1st Executive will spend time talking through each report with the client.
