Purpose
Assessment Centres allow organisations to ensure that an accurate
match is achieved between job vacancies and candidates.
Using a standard set of criteria, an Assessment Centre enables an
organisation to rate all candidates in a systematic and objective
way. This dramatically reduces the risk inherent in the traditional
interview process.

Candidates are given an extended opportunity to display their strengths
and demonstrate their full potential. The organisation can evaluate
these against relevant, job specific competencies and also obtain
an indication of any development needs.
A b4b Assessment Centre is based upon a thorough analysis of the role.
The selection of exercises and tests contained within the centre is
based upon the content of the Job Description, Person Specification
and Competencies relating to the job vacancy. The process will closely
reflect real-life business situations, giving candidates a useful
foretaste of the job and the assessors a clear understanding of what
they are seeking in a candidate. A particular strength of our approach
is that we seek to understand the value of the role for the candidate
and how it fits into their planned career path.
In today's rapidly changing business environment you need to recruit
talented people who can meet the needs of the organisation both today
and in the future. Using a b4b Assessment Centre will ensure that
you choose the candidates most suited to taking your organisation
forward into this new world.
Programme Structure
Each Assessment Centre has four clearly defined stages:
- Pre Assessment Centre preparation
- Assessment Centre
- Data Integration
- Feedback to Candidates
The design of the Assessment Centre will include a range of activities,
which will give each candidate an opportunity to demonstrate their
true abilities in the competencies being assessed.
The methods used will include a selection of the following:
- Individual Exercises
- Group Exercises
- Questionnaires
- Analytical and Psychometric Testing
- Competence Based Interviews
Each Assessment Centre is run by a team that includes selected and
trained assessors from within the organisation, together with trained
assessors and a logistics co-ordinator from b4b.

that the best candidate is matched to the job vacancy.

their suitability for the job vacancy, and to be assessed in a
fair and objective manner.

requirements.
