| Candidate/Job Applicant Screening
by Business Psychologist |
|
 |
|
 |
| |
| Large
organizations throughout the world employ
their own in-house organizational psychologists.
They call upon these psychologists to
assist in the design and development
of the recruitment and selection process,
among other roles. Within the selection
interview, the occupational psychologist
is able to bring scientific tools and
principles, as well as expertise in
the application of ability and personality
theory in the |
|
 |
|
|
| |
workplace.
The end result is an enhanced ability to predict
the likely performance of job applicants.
PsyAsia International's Psychologist on Call™
service provides the same services as would
typically be offered by in-house organizational
psychologists to organizations who do not
currently use these individuals or whose own
psychologists are engaged in other tasks or
where an external perspective is required. |

Job Profile
– we assist in the creation of
a job profile by examining the job description,
competency profile and any other information
that you may have about the job. Additionally,
we consult international competency
and behavioural indicator databases
to provide us with a clear understanding
of the job (as an additional consultancy
service we can also run a job analysis
for you). |
|
Test setup
– we setup the relevant assessments
within our system and either an email
invite goes to the candidate asking
them to complete the assessment(s) or
they will come to us or our partners
in person to do so. |
|
Test
– the respondent(s) complete the
relevant tests. |
|
Score
– we score the tests. |
|
Report
– we provide a full report on
each respondent.* |
|
Interview by
telephone, face-to-face or online
– we contact each respondent by
telephone, via internet meeting or meet
with them face-to-face to provide them
both with feedback (best practice requirement)
and obtain behavioral information from
the respondent to (a) corroborate the
personality profile (b) elicit additional
behavioural evidence in relation to
the competency framework. Any number
of persons on the selection panel are
welcome to join this meeting and even
ask their own questions by using our
special online meeting software at no
additional fee – they just need
a microphone and headset or to call
an international telephone number. |
|
Feedback
to client – we then contact
the client by telephone (or arrange
a meeting if in Hong Kong or Singapore
for an additional fee) or continue the
online meeting in private to report
back on the findings and run through
the written report in detail so that
the client fully understands the report
and its ramifications. This final session
typically takes 30 minutes per candidate. |
|
|
| |
| |
 |
|
|
| |
| PsyAsia International
has invested in state-of-the-art facilities
and we are able to present the report
to the client or a full board of selectors
via the internet whilst conversing on
the telephone or VOIP in real time no
matter where in the world the client
or the board/stakeholder is. Also note
that with this facility, different board
members/stakeholders may log in from
different parts of the world at the
same time. Hence, we are able to show
the report, go through it and answer
any questions with stakeholders perhaps
logged in from Singapore, Hong Kong,
Bombay, Sydney and London at the same
time. The only limitation then
is the time differences! We know of
no other psychometric assessment consultants
that offer this facility! Also, as noted
above, we can run the candidate interview
via this system and an unlimited number
of people from the selection committee
can log-in and listen to the interview
and even ask their own questions. Those
without Internet access simply call
an international number (UK, USA, Australia,
New Zealand etc.) and listen/ask questions
by telephone. |

Incorporating
the findings into the full assessment
process
At the initial competency development
stage, PsyAsia International can assist
the client in developing a complete
scientific selection model. Based on
the competency framework and other requirements,
we will develop a selection method grid
and through discussion with the client,
devise weightings and ratings and apply
these to each part or exercise of the
selection process. The client will then
provide us with scores throughout (e.g.,
scores based on application form, work-directed
references, assessment centre) the process
and we will provide the client with
a final excel worksheet that incorporates
all of the information and ranks the
group of applicants against the requirements
based on the assigned weightings and
ratings for each exercise and methodology
used. Please advise us if you wish to
use this service and we will provide
an additional quotation accordingly.
Timescales
The above process can be undertaken
within a very short time-frame (i.e.,
48 hours) provided PsyAsia has available
Psychologists. Advance booking of 1-2
weeks is however recommended.
Out of country applicants
& Expatriate Assignments
PsyAsia International can assess your
out of country/expatriate applicants
by using online-only psychometric assessments
and running a one-hour targeted interview
by telephone. This enables assessment
of individuals anywhere in the world
provided they have access to an internet-connected
computer and a telephone. Again, the
selection panel can listen in!
Fees
Fees vary depending on the amount of
work required in establishing the required
competencies etc., the number of tests
used, whether we go to the client's
premises or the applicants come to PsyAsia's
premises and whether the verbal feedback
provided to the decision-maker is by
telephone, online meeting or in-person.
Please contact
our Consultancy department for more
details. |

Note
PsyAsia's psychologists do not involve themselves
in the final decision given that this should be
based on a multitude of other factors that we may
not have access to, such as previous work experience,
current organizational environment, references etc.
*Report style and length varies based
on the exact psychometric test(s) used |
