Assessments

Assessments will help you to understand more about yourself – your abilities, personality, interests and more and this can be an effective means of making a career choice and increasing career satisfaction.

No assessment will tell you exactly what you should do – you make the decisions, but assessment can provide effective information to inform your decision making. This can then be considered alongside your own ideas, skills and background, values, goals and more.

Assessments can also help preparation for a forthcoming assessment centre or testing session.

We use the most effective assessments available.  As a Chartered Psychologist I use highly reputable advanced assessments that are light years ahead of what you can get for free on the net (which are usually a “rip off” version which break copyright laws).  To understand more about who you are choose tests of ability and tests of personality.

  • The Highlands Ability Battery is an in-depth programme of 19 work samples so you can learn what you can actually do rather than what you think you can do.
  • The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI ®) helps to understand personal style and you can choose between the regular (Step 1) and the Step 2 for an in-depth understanding of your personality.
  • To understand personality via assessments used in recruitment choose Savilles Wave, 16PF5 and the California Psychological Inventory (CPI).
  • For career suggestions choose the Strong Interest Inventory
  • For personal development choose the Firo-B, Thomas Kilman (TKI)
  • If you know you will be taking assessments as part of an assessment centre you can choose a practice testing session
