People Central Awarded Psychometric Testing Contract with NZ Ministry
Highly respected human resources and psychometric testing company People Central has over 200 corporate clients in New Zealand, and has recently been awarded a Ministry of Social Development contract to help Hawkes Bay people facing redundancy, get back to the office. People Central made an enormous impression on the Ministry in 2012, when 80% of their referrals (persons who were facing redundancy) were back in work inside 2 months.
At People Central psychometric testing is conducted by qualified professionals, with a background in human resources, and in touch with the needs of business and clients. Business needing to take on a new staff member can reduce the risk of making a poor recruitment call, by utilizing professionals such as People Central to do the psychometric testing. Another common business usage of psychometric testing is to identify talent in the team. Within 24 hours of calling People Central they can arrange for tests for your prospective employee, whether that be online or otherwise under supervised testing conditions. With Folk Central you may expect results the day after.
Of concern is that in NZ the psychometric testing industry is unregulated and is completely full of non-qualified pros and free online testing, which can lead to expensive business mistakes. Unfortunately in New Zealand there are many well used psychometric products that are little better than horoscopes.
According to People Central, the best psychometric tests have more than 20 years of empirical research behind them, to explain they're not free. Another delusion is that psychometric testing is just for white collar positions, but there's basically a reasonable range of products on the market specially for every skill level, its just that if the institution offering the testing is not qualified then they may not be able to pick a test that is relevant to the job.
The final imperative factor is making certain that the test uses a New Zealand norm group, otherwise the results are likely to be fooling due to cultural differences, and this has been a big factor in great potential employees losing out on the job, and a poor recruitment result for business.
