Making the Business Case for Assessments - Concern #4

The following is Concern #4 of an excerpt of Making the Business Case for Assessments by Ron Tepner and Dan Lezotte in Human Resource Executive Online.


Concern: The assessment will take control away from me in making hiring decisions. What if I really want to hire someone but the assessment says I can't?


Response: As the positive impact of less turnover and higher productivity takes hold, the candidate pool will be populated with more qualified candidates from which to select. If the assessment results suggest a candidate is not a good fit, the manager will have several other qualified candidates from which to choose.

(Note...remember that this is a tool that you choose how to use. You can hire whomever you'd like.)
