Psychodiagnostics in HR
Properly chosen psychodiagnostics can help better map the personality, abilities, motives and potential of the candidate or employee. In many cases, this knowledge can significantly speed up and refine.
Psychodiagnostic testing will ensure a higher degree of objectivity of the acquired knowledge and offer extended possibilities of comparison with general standards or a specific comparative group. It can also help you better identify individuals capable of exceptional stylization or hidden talents among candidates - and more consistently guard your return on investment in recruitment or development.
This training will give you a comprehensive and realistic overview of the possibilities offered by psychodiagnostics and psychometry in HR. We will introduce the specific tools you can use to transform and more effectively use the information gained during the recruitment phase into the next stages of the employee cycle across personnel activities.
