Our Assessment Services in Detail

Comprehensive Aptitude Assessment

We combine psychometric tests, multimodal interviews, simulation-based exercises, and structured assessment matrices. This provides you with a consistent, data-driven picture of your candidates’ competencies. For you, this means less reliance on gut feelings, more meaningful insights, and a solid foundation for presenting your case to management and committees.

Practical scenario-based exercises

Case studies, role-playing exercises, group discussions, and short presentations realistically simulate typical challenges associated with the target position. Under time pressure and while interacting with others, candidates’ technical, methodological, and interpersonal skills become apparent. This allows you to see how a person will behave in everyday situations—for example, when dealing with conflicts, customer complaints, or cross-functional collaboration.

Multimodal Interview

The multimodal interview combines biographical questions (“What specifically did you do in Situation X?”) with situational scenarios (“What would you do if…?”) and, where appropriate, mini-work samples. The structured approach and clearly defined evaluation criteria ensure a high degree of validity and comparability. For you, this means that every minute of the interview directly contributes to predicting job performance—and is documented in a way that remains transparent even in retrospect.

Customized Design & Flexible Process

From compact individual assessments (2–4 hours) to group assessment centers lasting several days, we develop a format that fits your needs—on-site, hybrid, or fully remote using established video conferencing tools such as MS Teams or Zoom. Clearly structured designs, schedules, and roles ensure a smooth process. This allows you to scale your selection process efficiently without compromising on quality or the candidate experience.

Fast, easy-to-understand results reports

No later than 72 hours after completion, you will receive structured assessments that include competency profiles, strengths-and-weaknesses analyses, and clear recommendations. The reports are designed so that HR professionals, line managers, and committees can quickly grasp their contents. This streamlines internal coordination and accelerates hiring decisions—especially in dynamic candidate markets.

Development Center

Development Centers provide a targeted view of your employees’ potential and areas for development. Based on the results, we create individualized development plans and support the next steps through coaching, training, or other development initiatives. This creates an effective component of strategic human resources development that opens up new opportunities and strengthens employee retention and motivation.
