Assessing assessment providers
Posted by Douglas Eisenhart at 11:37 AM

ERE contributor Charles Handler is upbeat about the increasing integration by recruiters of technology-based tools, such as applicant tracking systems, into their recruiting process. But when it comes to assessments, many firms are still balking:

. . .While continued interest and advances in both technology and consumer mindset are encouraging, there is still a great deal of hesitancy among potential consumers of assessment tools. While many folks have been sticking their big toe in the water, a large number are still unwilling to dive in. This is understandable, as there are many reasons why thinking about the use of assessment tools can be a bit scary.
Read Handler's helpful article on steps you can take to move toward integrating assessments into your hiring process. While perhaps initially daunting, the long-term benefits to your organization, argue Handler and others, are worth the effort up front.
