Objective Assessment
Most employers would agree that their employees are the greatest asset, accounting for up to 80% of many company’s operating costs.
Did you know that:
- 1 in 5 people change jobs each year?
- The average cost of managerial turnover is estimated at £10,000 per manager
- 80% of people leave their manager, not their jobs (Source: Gallup ominibus)
- Top performing employees deliver 12 times the value of mid level performers) (Source: Tom Young & Alex Martinez, Recruit Magazine)
- By improving recruitment process, companies can achieve a 10.1% growth in market value (Source: Watson Wyatt)
For over 27 years SHL has led the way in applying the science of psychometrics to improve the performance of people through objective assessment. U&Me recruitment is a member of the SHL Partner Network, a well-respected community that has been set up to supplement and enrich the professional services we offer our clients.
Why use objective assessments?
SHL tests are rigorously developed and supported by extensive empirical research
to demonstrate their accuracy, fairness and relevance. SHL and U&Me recruitment believe that the behaviours of individuals and teams
in the workplace have a huge impact on the success of the organisation. SHL products allow u & me to measure and predict these behaviours on behalf of our clients.
SHL tests are only supplied to suitably
qualified or trained individuals, thus ensuring high professional standards. U&Me consultants are qualified to deliver and administer:
- SHL assessment products for job analysis, e.g. competency profiling
- SHL assessment products for selection, e.g. Scenarios, Occupational Personality Questionnaires
- SHL assessment products for development, e.g. Motivation Questionnaire, Career Pathfinder
