MCS announces availability of new SkillCheck 'Identity' behavioural test modules
Following the recent successful UK launch of SkillCheck skills assessments and Identity behavioural testing from First Advantage, MCS is pleased to announce the availability of three new Identity behavioural tests.
Lead Sales Executive David Gorton says “Since acquiring UK distribution rights for SkillCheck
earlier on this year, we have seen a rapid growth in our client base. Many of our new clients are looking to test applicants’ ‘hard skills’ – their knowledge of MS Word and Excel programmes, for example. But increasingly, we are seeing more of a market for our Identity tests within the recruitment sector. With this in mind, the US-based SkillCheck Assessment Solutions team has devised three new tests designed to predict whether a job candidate will be successful in the areas of Productivity, Management and Supervision.
David explains “Identity tests are formed by utilising our building block structure to compile the perfect test for you. Each test block is pre-validated, and covers a specific area of personality, such as ‘Trustworthiness’ or ‘Helping Disposition’. When compiled together, we can create a test for any individual recruiter or company using our ‘off the shelf’ building blocks, our three new tests, Productivity, Management and Supervision being a few examples of this. All deliverable via online testing, or DVD installation.”
“We can also create custom tests, validated to your own companies’ workforce behaviours if required.”
Existing ‘off the shelf’ Identity tests include:
Workplace Personality
Workplace Skills
Sales
Customer Service
Productivity*
Risk Factors
Management*
Supervision*
Cognitive Ability
*NEW
Each Identity test is composed of a number of individually validated traits that may be used as the building blocks in developing custom behavioural tests. Some of those traits include:
Assertiveness
Ambition
Candidness
Problem Solving
Math and Logical Reasoning
Stress Management
and many others
General Manager Chris Wallwork says “The SkillCheck assessment line provides more than 850 unique tests, ranging from Audio Customer Service, to Data Entry, through to MS Office scenario-based assessments. On top of this we also offer our time-adaptive TalentScout package too, which is designed to cut your testing time dramatically. This wide-ranging functionality, coupled with the flexibility and robustness of our Identity tests, makes SkillCheck Assessment Solutions not only a crucial tool for Recruiters and HR Managers, but a cost-effective one too.”
