Assessment

Assessment: better insights, better choices

Assessments help you chart the competencies, talents and growth potential of (future) employees. On the basis of our reports you are able to make informed decisions about the suitability of internal and external candidates. We give you a clear picture of candidates’ potential for development and the kind of training or coaching this may require. H+C offers a range of assessment methods, some of which are our own in-house developments. The objective: the right person in the right position.

In a world where change is taking place at a rapid pace, organizations have to constantly anticipate on new developments in technology, digitalization, the economy and our culture. A customer-inspired approach, high levels of process control and excellent quality standards are value-adding characteristics that an organization can only realize when it employs the best possible people. This sets the bar very high for HR policies and the selection process. Therefore, assessments are an important tool.

Context is everything. This is why the first thing we do is to thoroughly examine the mission, strategy and culture of your organization, and of course the specific goal of the assessment at hand. Next, we decide our approach – in close consultation with you. All our methods are founded in scientific research and can be applied to group as well as individual assessments.

Selection assessment
To determine a candidate’s suitability for a specific position, department or organization. The outcome is a positive recommendation or an alternative suggestion.

Career assessment
To chart a person’s personality, motivation, competencies and career perspectives in relation to the ambitions of a department and organization. The outcome: a tailored career recommendation.

Development assessment or potential assessment
To chart a person’s personality, motivation, competencies and career perspectives in relation to a specific position, department or organization. The outcome is a tailored development recommendation.

Management development assessment or High Potential assessment
To chart the talents and growth potential of high potentials and managers. The outcome: a tailored career and development recommendation.
TOP assessment / Innovative Leadership Assessment
To chart a person’s ability to act as a strategic leader who is able to inspire, stimulate and drive a transformation in line with pre-defined targets. The outcome: a tailored development recommendation in combination with additional coaching. These last two methods were designed in-house by H+C, especially for group assessments.

In our H+C Development Centre we can offer any combination of development assessment, training and inspiration to ensure employees develop their talents to the full of their potential.

In addition to the assessments above we can gain further insight through existing or in-house developed methodology, including:

Intelligence tests
Personality tests
Motivation tests
Management drives profiling
Career tests
Vocational assessment
Practical exercises
Practical simulations with assessment actors
In-depth interviews
Serious gaming

As a result we are able to provide you with clear reports and concrete development/career recommendations and training schemes. When discussing our recommendations with you we believe we should never hesitate to point out possible sensitive issues. After all, reality dictates that sometimes there is a mismatch between desired outcomes and actual results. Our approach is to be realistic, while always upholding respect for people and maintaining a good sense for relations within the organizations.

The psychologists we work with always have a clear focus on people and results. They adhere to the standards of the Dutch Association of Psychologists (NIP) and are accredited users of the Insights Discovery and Management Drives methods.

The strength of our assessments lies in providing you with an insight into people’s talents, growth potential and career perspectives. This enables you to make the right decisions when filling a position.
