Capability
Demonstrated ability to perform the work the role actually requires.
Report what was observed. Nothing more.
Talent Assessment does not produce a single overall talent score. Evidence is reported by dimension, weighted by the relevance the employer assigned to the actual role.
Ten Talent Evidence dimensions
Job Knowledge
Applied knowledge of the domain, tools and standards of the role.
Problem Solving & Analysis
How a person frames a problem, reasons through it and reaches a defensible answer.
Judgment & Decision-Making
Quality of decisions under real constraints, including what they choose not to do.
Efficiency™
How effectively time and resources are used while quality and completeness hold. Efficiency is not speed.
Quality & Attention to Detail
Accuracy, completeness and care in finished work.
Communication
Clarity, accuracy and appropriateness of written and spoken communication.
Adaptability & Learning
How new information, correction and changed conditions are absorbed and applied.
Collaboration & Interpersonal Effectiveness
Working effectively with others toward a shared outcome.
Reliability & Work Execution
Follow-through, organization and dependable completion of committed work.
Role Relevance Weighting™
Before candidates are invited, the employer classifies each dimension against the actual role. The classification is recorded with the assessment and shown alongside every result.
- Critical
- Important
- Relevant
- Not Material
Evidence Confidence™
- Strong Evidence
- Multiple consistent, job-relevant observations support this dimension.
- Supporting Evidence
- Observed and consistent, with a narrower evidence base.
- Limited Evidence
- Some evidence was gathered, but not enough to draw a firm conclusion. Limited is not poor.
- Conflicting Evidence
- Observations point in different directions and require human review.
- Not Assessed
- This dimension was not assessed. Not Assessed is not a failure.
Assessment Consistency Lock™
Assessment Consistency Lock™ holds the assessment rules, method mix and role relevance weighting in place once candidates are invited, so similarly situated candidates are assessed under the same governed conditions.
Comparison Guard™
Comparison Guard™ prevents comparison of candidates who were not assessed under equivalent governed conditions, and labels any comparison that is not directly equivalent.
Assessment Health™
- Governed rules in place
- Method mix balanced to the role
- Role relevance weighting recorded
- Reviewer coverage
