5 benefits of assessments for recruitment agencies

A number of skills assessment methods have found their way into the recruitment field. These include assessments, which are used to evaluate candidates' technical skills.

But what is assessment ?

Assessment, an evaluation process, aims to identify an individual's skills and potential for a specific position, using a variety of exercises such as psycho-technical tests, interviews or role-plays. Its aim is also to measure and confirm an individual's adaptation in terms of soft skills and drivers to a particular work environment and organization.


This process is used in several contexts :

Selection during recruitment

It complements traditional interviews by assessing a candidate's personal qualities and suitability for the position in question.

Assessment or internal mobility

This is used for promotion to new responsibilities, such as team management, or for professional transition to a new position.

What are the advantages of assessment ?

  • Objective assessment of Hard Skills

Assessing skills objectively is both an important and difficult process. This type of assessment is based on measurable, concrete criteria, such as specific domain knowledge or technical skills. These Hard Skills assessments enable HR to accurately determine a candidate's skill level.

 
  • Objective assessment of Soft Skills

For most companies, Soft Skills are just as important as Hard Skills, and in some areas even more so. Unlike Hard Skills, Soft Skills are not measurable, as they relate to personality traits, interpersonal skills and professional behavior. With our HR software sweeeft.ai, we assess Soft Skills objectively, thanks to our advanced Artificial Intelligence technology, which studies facial expressions, verbal and paraverbal communication, and immersive role-playing.
