(Assessment Selection Assistance Profiling)
Our assessment process is quite
simple:
1. You provide us with the names and addresses of your
finalist(s) for a position.
2.
We learn about the positions and send them a battery of
assessment instruments. We typically suggest an ASAP™
packet for entry level to middle-management positions
and an ASAP™ Enhanced packet for senior level positions.
The assessment instruments measure more than 50 dimensions
(with ASAP™) and 100 dimensions (with ASAP™
Enhanced), including:
- Dominant
and Recessive Temperaments (foundation on which personality
forms)
- Dominant Personality Traits
- Leadership
Effectiveness
- Vector/Valence
(ability to align and influence)
- Communication
Style
- Decision
Making
- Conflict
Management
- Delegation
and Coaching Skills
- Information
Processing
- Self
Motivators
- Stress
- Probing
Ability
3.
The candidate(s) complete the ASAP™ or ASAP™
Enhanced instruments and return them to us for scoring
and analysis.
4.
We send you the candidate's Personal Assessment Portfolio
and set up a time to debrief you by phone on the results.
5.
We spend about an hour with you, providing a multidimensional
view of the candidate, answering such questions as:
- How
will the individual relate to superiors, peers, subordinates,
and others already on the team?
- What
is the candidate's management style and how will it
match your company's culture?
- What
are the candidate's dominant strengths and weaknesses?
- Can
the candidate develop, adjust, influence, and lead?
- Does
this individual have any potential baggage that could
damage their success?
- Can
this individual manage conflict, be self-directed, and
get results?
- Are
there any unique characteristics that should be further
explored through interview questions, background checks,
etc.?
ASAP™
and ASAP™ Enhanced are certainly among
our most popular products, and will in most cases meet
your pre-hire assessment needs. However, there are
some cases where clients like to actually see a candidate
"in action" before hiring them, particularly
if they are senior-level executives, individuals who will
be controlling major corporate dollars for you, or serving
in a role that could significantly impact your culture.
In these cases, we might recommend Assessment
Plus™, a full assessment center approach, where
we recreate the work environment and have the candidate
perform in our Executive Simulator™, located here
at the Bartell Center for Executive Assessment and Development.
