The
Assessment Center? It is a method, not a place.
It is a highly versatile and complex tool for evaluating
a person's knowledge, abilities and motivation
considered critical for the success in a specific job.
The assessment evaluation is based on
objectivity. The Assessment Center is process where:
several candidates are
assessed together, thus making possible to observe the
group behavior and interactions
several pre-defined
criteria are assessed, thus making the
evaluation more objective and comprehensive; each
participant is evaluated based on multiple
competencies, personality features and motivational
fit criteria
several different
exercises are used to assess behavior in
different situations
several observers
(assessors) evaluate the candidates, thus
making the process more objective and unbiased
all results are
integrated, thus creating a complex and
detailed report on each candidate's strengths and
limitations.
The results of this complex evaluation
may be used for:
internal and external selection
promotion
individual and/or team training needs assessment
evaluation of development programs efficiency
(training- mentoring-coaching etc.)
career planning and succession planning
investigating the managerial styles as part of
cultural change of the organization.
The key-element of a successful
Assessment Center is a well-defined competency model.
The competency-matrix to be assessed should be carefully
designed together with the client, based on the existent
competency-set of the organization or may be created
according to the specific needs and evaluation's
objectives.
