2 Cognitive Biases that cause bad hiring

2 Cognitive Biases that cause bad hiring – Skill Test Saves Hiring Process!

Do you trust all the “I am confident I possess all the qualities and skills this position requires” statements? The problem is not you! It’s the cognitive biases of the candidates & your subjective analysis of them.

Subjective faulty https://pmapstest.com/sales-assessment/hiring processes influence hiring decisions in the worst manner possible. Interestingly, even the candidate is not conscious of this effect. According to a Statistic, about 94% of professors believe they are more skilled and accomplished than they are, having a wrong notion about their real capabilities & projection.

This phenomenon is technically called the Dunning-Kruger Effect, after its observers, David Dunning and Justin Kruger. Don’t worry…it is not as scary as it sounds. Let me help you out with understanding these cognitive biases better.

Let’s go back to your schooling age. It is natural for most children to delay completing their homework till the approach of the deadline. “I have only one chapter left” is a constant excuse. However, the moment we start our homework, it feels as if it has all accumulated and is never-ending.

The amount of work with respect to time is not known to us until we experience it. Similarly, the actual competency of the confident candidates is unknown till evaluated using the right tool.

You will always encounter at least one candidate, who says “I am very sure about my capabilities”. And “I can carry out all responsibilities”. Which may not always be true or realistic. What affects these candidates’ display of confidence?

· You cannot cross-check them

· They are not aware of their skills

· They are very willing to make the most of the job opportunities

2 Cognitive Biases that Influence Hiring Decisions

Dunning-Kruger Effects

This phenomenon is one of the common cognitive biases first observed by David and Justin. They encountered the weird case of a person with a strange belief. This person mumbled, “But, I wore the juice” when asked why he robbed a bank.

McArthur Wheeler believed that lemon juice makes invisible ink. Therefore, it could also make him invisible to the CCTVs. And he robbed two banks while smiling at the surveillance cameras throughout the day.

It was only the lack of knowledge about lemon juice’s properties that encouraged his confidence. It made him think he was invisible while robbing those banks.

The effect explains why your candidate might suffer from ‘Illusionary Confidence’ with a lack of knowledge. And underestimate themselves when they acquire relevant knowledge.

Further, after learning accurate self-evaluations an ideal candidate should be able to evaluate their skills and attitude. To make sure you hire consciously competent individuals, you must rely on scientific pre-employment assessment tools.

Imposter Syndrome

In contrast to the confident candidate’s cognitive biases, they can also be the victims of imposter syndrome. While a lack of knowledge can lead to illusionary confidence, conscious knowledge can lead to reduced levels of confidence. The imposter syndrome is a significant discovery by two psychologists, Pauline Rose Clance and Suzanne Imes in 1978.

This study typically focused on high-achieving women. However, many modern developments in psychology studies today show that it is a daily feeling for most individuals. A recent private study by Micro Biz Mag claims that 1 out of 20 individuals experiences imposter syndrome daily.

Furthermore, In The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, Dr. Valerie Young subcategorized the imposter syndrome into 4 distinct categories. The categories are based on the undesirable habits and patterns of an individual.

Those are;

· The Perfectionist– “Aim for gold. Anything other than that is failure”.

· The Superwoman/man– “I can undertake all roles and responsibilities”

· The Natural Genius– “I will complete my task with less or no effort”

· The Soloists– “I need no help to complete my work”

· The Experts – ” I know everything and all “

PMaps Skill Test: Cross-Check Your Candidates’ Cognitive Biases

You must have encountered enough candidates who suffer from either of these conditions. If you think choosing the individual with imposter syndrome is better, this is not true!

As explained in the Dunning-Kruger Effect, not all candidates are aware of their competencies. This confident candidate phenomenon is highly common in freshers when compared with experienced candidates. While the Imposter Syndrome is a usual occurrence in the case of experienced candidates.

Your ideal candidate should be smart enough to acknowledge their limits and work on expanding them.

pmapstest.com

While candidates evaluate & assess themselves on their abilities, you can prevent irrational hiring by switching your hiring process from the common job interview to a scientific selection test.

Psychometric assessments – your scientific tool to evaluate your applicants, filter good-quality candidates based on genuineness in behavioral disposition & their real abilities through Cognitive & Skill Assessments. Our 3 best lie scales measure the tendency to respond extremely or to remain absurdly neutral. You can also use proctors to conduct your skills assessment test more strictly and securely.

Furthermore, to eliminate optimism bias, decision-makers use behavioral interview questions. These are a collection of realistic questions based on candidates’ first-hand experience and knowledge. If by chance, the lie scales in a psychometric assessment could not catch your offender, a behavioral interview would.

The combination of scientific psychometric assessment, lie scales, proctoring and behavioral interviews, can prevent a bad hiring decision. Second thoughts about selection due to intuition, prejudice, heuristic bias, and even recruiter opinion can now take a back seat. It helps you hire the best talent among the pool of applicants.

Sum Up

We understand how valuable your time is. PMaps has brought to you the easiest way to assess candidates thoroughly and quickly. Our online assessment test can also predict the applicants’ enthusiasm to remain with the organization and their possible tenure.

This can help you prevent high employee attrition rates. Our HR Tech platform reduces hiring biases through our visual-based psychometric assessment by empirical evaluation of your candidates’ cognitive ability.

please share your thoughts on mr. and mrs. smith rosquez version

Basically in my au Vale is like, idek, a government spy that left the services after uncovering some scam that was going on but he was weirdly embroiled and had to leave to avoid prison. Marc is a mercenary for hire of sorts, couldn't be a spy for the country because his psychometric test deemed him a little crazy. So they hired by the agency and they are matched. They get to this beautiful villa somewhere in southern Europe in city. Bump into each other and realise they are supposed to be fake married for their missions. It's like, immediate chemistry. In the same house, thick sexual tension. Marc is blushing around Vale for no reason but they maintain some distance to work on their missions properly. Vale obviously aware of Marc's attraction and his own ability to draw people to him. They start fucking pretty early into their set up, but don't do the other domestic stuff that comes with it, don't really sleep in the same bed. It's intense hot dirty fucking and then back to work. Sex as a performance enhancement drug (for Marc atleast, Vale is a plain old hedonist). The company has them doing a bunch of crazy stuff all over Europe. They work well as a team. Vale has far more extensive experience and knowledge because he worked with the government. He's privy to information that helps them along in planning and strategy. Marc is great at the dirty work, remorseless at times. They have their first dangerous situation, Vale almost gets shot. And it affects Marc, he's shaken up. They come back and he's just clinging to Vale, unable to let him go, they finally sleep together the same time and Vale realises Marc is genuinely invested in this. Their fake marriage becomes a little less fake post that thing. I think over the course of more missions Marc catches up to Vale a little. Does a lot of his own research and reading. Vale gets a little paranoid about how Marc doesn't exactly need him anymore for the mental heavy lifting, and lbr physically Vale isn't at his prime and neither does he possess the ruthless physicality of Marc. They keep having these little skirmishes that don't fully rise to surface till a mission in Sepang. They are supposed to carry out an extraction where Vale gets injured and immediately thinks that Marc has gotten him injured so he has to take time off from field work for a while. Huge meltdown, almost compromise the mission itself. Decide to go their separate ways, some shenanigans ensue and they realise that the company might be instigating them to act out this way. Definitely a huge argument and the classic scene where they keep pulling out weapons from random places and shooting at each other while calling each other "honey" "baby" "sweetheart" "mi amor". Eventually they just start fucking. Marc crying as he gets fucked on the floor of the house they nearly destroyed. Telling how much they love each other. Finally decide they need to do something about this damn company if they want to be together. That's all I can think now but come back for more later!

#didn't do justice to this :(#but rosquez spy au is hot in all worlds #rosquez #valentino rossi #marc marquez #vale #motogp #motogp rpf #mr and mrs smith #mr and mrs smith au

Let's talk about the MBTI

If you've heard me speak on the subject before, it may not shock you to hear that I'm not a huge fan of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or as it is more commonly known, the MBTI. For those that haven't had the pleasure yet, I find the MBTI to be little better than a horoscope, what descriptive power of one's personality or mental processes are concerned. It's a reoccurring weakness of psychology, frankly, that we seem to struggle so hard with finding any reliable metrics for measuring the human mind, maybe that's a feature and not a bug.

The one factor that the MBTI that I find personally useful, though, is the Introversion/Extroversion dichotomy. I, myself, am pretty introverted as these things go. I need time to decompress after being social, I'm not particularly outgoing as these things go, that whole situation. That said, I don't consider myself antisocial. I love people. I love talking to them, learning from them, figuring out how they tick, or just shooting the breeze and spending some time outside of my own head. I've always scoffed at self-declared "ambiverts" because it appeared as self-evident to me that introversion does not mean being asocial, and that being somewhere on the scale between the two extremes was quite normal.

As I read up on the damn thing, though, it appears I have been too charitable with the MBTI. As it turns out, the MBTI operates on the assumption of a bimodal distribution, which is to say that the majority of test scores would fall close to the two extremes, and not be distributed evenly around the mean as in a Standard Distribution

Where I'm from, there's a satirical observation, or perhaps a very dry joke, stating that "There are two kinds of people. People who own a boat and people who don't." (my translation) This is meant to mock binary sorting systems, as even the untrained "folk psychologist" can plainly see that any such dichotomous categorization of the human animal is plainly ridiculous. And yet, here is the MBTI telling the same joke but four times over and meaning it every time.

Me and my interpretation of local witticisms is, however, not the only one to have picked up on this little inconsistency between the model and what we can observe in reality. A conga line of researchers, see this and this for examples, have looked at the MBTIs assumption of distribution of results and found the dichotomies to be considerably less dichotomous than advertised.

So, without even getting into the other criticisms of the model, let's just say this thing is shaky as fuck from an actual scientific perspective, and the model doesn't have many, if it has any, defenders among the labcoat crowd.

So, why is this important to me at all? Partially because it annoys me on a personal level when junk science circulates in a field I actually know enough about to pick it up, but also because I find it shady as all fuck how this test still lives on in the popular conscience. Part of it is mine and younger generations desperately seeking identity footholds to cling onto in this post(-post?)-post-modern world we flounder around in, but our dearly hated nemesis Late Stage Capitalism also has its share of the blame. You see, while the Tinder profile-havers and Ted:x talk-enjoyers of the world do their part to keep this particular piece of failed psychometrics going, it's a comparatively small push compared to recruiting and business factors.

Businesses love Metrics, and it's easy to see why. In a world where everything is about increasing one number, namely the bottom line, it's immeasurably easier to evaluate the effect of actions and choices if they come with their own tidy little numbers. If spending X dollars on this or that decision ends up increasing the profit by Y%, that's a considerably easier piece of math for evaluating whether doing this was a good idea than if there were no numbers attached and you had to go partially by gut feeling.

Hiring and other personnel decisions are tricky from a business perspective partially because there are considerably fewer good metrics by which to evaluate an actual person than, say, a change in office supplies. Psychometrics is a notoriously tricky field, and although there are some metrics that supposedly covary with productivity or other words the C-suite likes hearing, many of these can be pricy to administer and generally give results with more nuance than fits comfortably in a spreadsheet.

In that context, I can easily see the MBTI standing out as a more attractive option. It doesn't take long to test for and it gives everyone a convenient combination of letters that you can tell yourself means something significant. Granted, it doesn't really tell you anything useful and has terrible test-retest validity, but that's apparently not enough of a deterrent, and if that doesn't tell you a lot about how nuts recruitment has gotten lately don't you worry, I have plenty of other thoughts about the matter.

Those are for another day though. This little rant was originally going to be about introverts and extroverts and how there should be room in a healthy society for both, but then I came across the actual state of the MBTI while making sure I knew what I was talking about, and then that was suddenly all I could write about. Life takes you on some journies at times dear friends, and sometimes you just have to buckle up and ride it out.

To illustrate: A few months ago, a bright, chatty fellow named John walked out of a midweight marketing company’s offices in London, pretty sure he’d gotten the job. He’d been told the interview would last an hour at most, but they’d kept him there for two. “It was an informal chat until they got to the personality test,” says John, recalling that instead of the usual interview topics, such as his previous experience and relevant skills, discussion had zeroed in on the results of a psychometric questionnaire he’d been asked to complete prior to coming in. “It really felt like, ‘Wow, they love this test. They really believe in everything it says.’”

On being handed his results, John raised an eyebrow at the fact that, according to the test publisher’s blurb at the top, it had color-coded his personality according to the “four humors,” the bodily fluids — yellow bile, black bile, blood and phlegm — that Ancient Greek medical theory held as responsible for regulating both people’s physical health and the underlying aspects of character, or “temperaments.” “They said, ‘What we’re looking for is this…’” says John, “and what they showed me were these four colors together where they were all pretty balanced. They said, ‘Do you want to see yours?’ All of mine were balanced apart from red, which was through the roof.” Red, in this system, stood for a cluster of related personality traits that included aggression and competitiveness. This readout, explained the hiring panel, indicated, “You don’t mind treading on other people’s toes in order to gain success.”

Which John took to be a slam-dunk: The vacancy was for a senior salesperson. A competitive nature would be a strong asset when it came to closing deals, he ventured. “Actually, it’s a bit of a mix in our sales team,” came the reply. “Some of them have a little bit higher, but yours is as close to being off the scale as it could be.”

The next day the recruiter called to give him the bad news: “They thought that your ability within the sector and your sales experience would be great, but they felt that where you fell down was your personality test.” John’s first response was to burst out laughing. In the room it had “felt very cult-y,” he says. “They told me, ‘We’ve all done the test ourselves, and we find it 98 percent accurate.’” Did he really want to work for a company where teams were structured according to human-resources thinking from a time when motor function was attributed to animal spirits that roamed through the muscles and lived in the brain? “‘Where’s David?’” says John, mentally sketching a regular day at the office. “‘Oh, he’s in Meeting Room 2 at the moment, with the leeches on him.”

What Are the Key Benefits of Hiring an Executive Recruitment Firm?

In today’s competitive business environment, finding and retaining top talent is crucial for organisational success. One of the most effective ways to secure high-calibre executives is by partnering with an executive recruitment firm.

Access to a Broader Talent Pool

Executive recruitment firms have extensive networks and databases of high-level professionals. Their reach often extends beyond what is accessible through traditional job postings or internal searches. By tapping into these networks, firms can find candidates who might not be actively seeking new opportunities but are open to them.

This broad access ensures that the recruitment process includes a wide array of qualified candidates, increasing the chances of finding the perfect fit for the role.

Expertise in Identifying Top Talent

Recruitment firms specialise in understanding the nuances of various industries and roles. Their consultants are experts in identifying the skills, experience, and attributes required for executive positions.

They employ sophisticated assessment tools and methodologies to evaluate candidates thoroughly. This expertise helps in matching candidates not just with the job description but also with the organisational culture and long-term strategic goals of the company.

Time and Resource Efficiency

The recruitment process can be time-consuming and resource-intensive. From crafting job descriptions to screening resumes and conducting interviews, the process demands considerable effort.

By outsourcing these Executive Search Firms tasks to an executive recruitment firm, companies can save valuable time and focus on their core operations. Recruitment firms handle the entire process from start to finish, including candidate sourcing, screening, and initial interviews, allowing internal teams to concentrate on their primary responsibilities.

Confidentiality and Discretion

Executive searches often involve sensitive information and may require discretion, especially when replacing high-level executives or conducting searches for confidential roles. Executive recruitment firms maintain a high level of confidentiality throughout the executive recruitment Melbourne process, ensuring that the search does not disrupt the current organisational structure or affect employee morale.

Their expertise in managing sensitive information helps in conducting discreet searches and preserving the integrity of the hiring process.

Market Insights and Benchmarking

Executive recruitment firms provide valuable insights into current market trends, compensation benchmarks, and competitive landscape. Their consultants stay updated with industry developments and can offer advice on market conditions, salary expectations, and talent availability.

This information is crucial for making informed decisions about compensation packages, job requirements, and overall recruitment strategy.

Improved Quality of Hires

The ultimate goal of an executive recruitment firm is to ensure that the client hires the best possible candidate. Their rigorous screening processes, combined with their industry knowledge, result in higher-quality hires.

They use a combination of interviews, reference checks, and psychometric testing to assess candidates' fit for the role and the organisation. This thorough evaluation process helps in selecting candidates who not only meet the technical requirements but also align with the company’s culture and values.

Reduced Hiring Risks

Hiring executives is a significant investment, and the risks associated with a poor hire can be substantial. Executive recruitment firms mitigate these risks by employing proven methodologies and leveraging their experience to avoid common pitfalls.

Their focus on finding the right fit reduces the likelihood of turnover and the associated costs of rehiring and training. Many executive search firms also offer guarantees or replacement clauses, providing an additional layer of assurance in the recruitment process.

Strategic Partnership

Beyond just filling a position, executive recruitment firms often act as strategic partners. They work closely with clients to understand their long-term goals and organisational needs. This partnership allows firms to offer tailored solutions and strategic advice, helping clients build a strong leadership team aligned with their vision.

The relationship extends beyond the recruitment process, providing ongoing support and guidance as the organisation evolves.

Final Words

These firms play a crucial role in finding and securing top executive talent, ensuring that organisations can thrive and achieve their strategic objectives.

2 Best Customer Service Skill Tests To Screen Your Candidates

· Post author:Pratisrutee Mishra

· Post published:02/08/2022

· Post category:HR Trends & Practices

Spread the love

Do you feel the HRs’ hiring block too? It’s time to embrace the advanced customer service skill tests! A tiringly-long hiring process is a cue enough to change the usual method of hiring. And how you engage with your existing and future employees.

Today’s consumer market demands progressive customer service. It has become important to hire candidates who are fit for the role as technology advances. In this situation, it is better to put effort into SMART WORK, rather than giving into regular, hard work.

This article aims to provide you with clarity on how to improve customer service levels. How to utilize digital resources and adopt smart hiring… Embracing the ever-changing world around you will enable you to stay up-to-date.

Let’s Suppose…

There are two companies, presumably A and B.

Company A employs competent customer service executives using visual-based psychometric assessments. It facilitates the assessment of specific role-based characteristics and aptitudes for the job. Company B, however, sticks adamantly to lengthy and time-taking traditional hiring techniques. They strictly believe in the one-to-one interview process.

As a result, after hiring the candidates, Company B was least aware of the strengths and weaknesses of its employees. And hence, they administered ‘not so effective’ training sessions. These barely showed any effect on their skill set or altered their mind frame.

On the other hand, company A received a detailed report from the evaluative customer service assessment. They could successfully arrange relevant training courses and toolkits. These effectively nurtured the new hires to perform better in the company.

For Company A, one wise hiring decision led to the development of a good CSE team. In contrast, Company B’s customer support team performed poorly.

The new team of CSE hired in ‘Company A’ helped them decrease the call handling time. And also contributed in increasing C-SAT Scores through efficient engagement. While the job performance of Company B went down in contrast.

Who does not want to keep their customers happy? Therefore, Company A in this scenario has the most desirable and ideal organizational setting for a progressive HR manager. It’s evident that company A has a better customer and producer relationship than company B.

But where can you access these modern hiring tools?

In case you were wondering, PMaps is the right destination for you. A diligent group of organizational psychologists develop the pre-employment assessment at PMaps. Using these online assessments makes customer service hiring easy, accurate, detailed, and time-saving.

PMaps Solutions: CSA And eVA Pre-Employment Test

These excellent visual-based recruiting tools assess the right skills in a combination that can benefit you! It evaluates the job-specific aptitude and voice accent proficiency of your candidate with ease. You can find the best candidate by using customer service cognitive ability tests and voice and accent tests.

The CSA evaluates 5 important traits of the aspiring customer service agents such as empathy, presence of mind, emotional control, conscientiousness, and achievement orientation. And eVA assesses the speech delivery and fluency of your applicants with specific grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, and pronunciation. Let’s dive deeper into their functions and importance.

CSA-Customer Service Skill Tests Your Fittest Candidate

Empathy-

A little warmth and empathy can make the customers comfortable expressing their struggles. A study in 2020 shows a positive correlation between employee empathy and customer satisfaction. It plays a vital role in the approach while dealing with customer complaints.

Hiring an empathetic candidate will help you improve your customers’ experiences. The customer-centric behavior will also increase customers’ engagement, leading to better bonding.

According to a study in 2021, customer bonding plays an important role in retaining trusted customers. Therefore, good customer service skill tests measure the applicants’ ability to handle customers’ moods.

Presence Of Mind-

The focus on providing quick, easy, and unique solutions determines the efficiency of a CSE team. Fast-paced customer service often delivers the message of a prompt CSE team. The enthusiasm to face clients makes the role of CSE more genuine and effective. In fact, 76% of customers expect to engage immediately with a CSE as soon as they reach out.

Fast response from a customer care agent imprints an impression of well-organized professional space. https://pmapstest.com/customer-service-assessments/89% of customers tend to associate further when they are attended immediately on their initial inquiry. Therefore, fast thinking and decision-making are significant factors in the PMaps customer service skill tests.

Emotional Control-

The ability to manage and regulate oneself individually and socially helps the agents ‘stand out’ while facing clients. Adjusting well with the customers’ moods and intentions is a must-have trait for all CSE aspirants.

However, it is not easy to deal with one’s personal emotions and operate unaffectedly in a professional setting. It takes courage to say, “I can understand how disturbing it can be. Let me resolve it for you.”

And “We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. We will work to fix the issue as soon as possible.” when the other side is extremely angry, beyond usual tolerable levels. High emotional control will help the agents recover from these encounters easily.

Achievement Orientation-

An enthusiastic agent can enhance the standards of customer service in the organization. If each member of the CSE team contributes, it improves overall performance, approach and dealing with your clients. An ideal customer service team must be achievement-oriented. They must be internally motivated, driven towards higher goals, futuristic and visionary.

Setting goals and coping with global customer support standards are the primary concerns of support agents. It is not easy to identify ideal candidates through in-person job interviews. Therefore, smart psychometric assessments filter the best hiring options for you. The customer service skill tests eliminates biases through scientific analysis of their personality and potential.

Conscientiousness-

Conscientiousness helps customer support agents execute their dealings professionally and ethically. According to research conducted at Rice University, conscientious customer agents deliver better performances. The strategy of dealing with the customers in a detailed and pre-planned manner always brings targeted results.

Through PMaps, you can compare your applicants and filter out your ideal ones with the help of our advanced customer service aptitude test.

A good customer experience is key to successful customer retention and network expansion. Hire your dedicated customer service agents wisely.

Voice and Accent Assessment – Customer Service Skill Tests For Language Proficiency!

Grammar-

It is very important to get your candidates checked for language proficiency. Especially grammar, as this foundation of communication is based on the accurate forming of sentences. You definitely do not wish to have a customer care agent who picks up the call and says,

“Hello, Sir. How you are? How I can help?”

Not only will it be difficult for your customers, but it will also create a bad brand impression. https://pmapstest.com/management-aptitude-test-visual-based-psychometric-test-pmaps/In customer service, being polite only works well when you can deliver structured statements.

Vocabulary-

Are your customer service agents aware of local terms and terminologies?

This helps the agents develop bonds with their clients. This can become a major problem when you are hiring Gen-Z candidates. Why? Because today’s generation is more inclined toward the use of short forms and abbreviations.

However, customers are either Millennials or even older. To keep the conversation going, both sides need to be aware of this tendency. It’s not the customers’ responsibility to do this.

‘Sorry’ and ‘Thank You’ are only a couple of examples.

Again, there are particular phrases mostly used by customer service agents to handle angry customers. The agents must also be fluent in business languages in order to be able to provide the best customer support.

Comprehension-

What matters the most for a team of customer service agents?

It is to understand the customers of the company. Customer service personnel need to have an in-depth understanding of the products. Also about the organization’s mottos and ethics in order to be able to interpret and solve customers’ problems. An agent cannot deliver satisfactory targets with all awareness if they fail to understand the speech used by the client.

The candidates must have the Triple-A-Listening Skills to be able to perfectly comprehend:

· Attitude

· Attention

· Adjustment

These skills ensure effective communication with clients. Engaging in client-agent conversations becomes hard in the case of telephonic and virtual support. The availability of wide exposure and modern reach can be a bonus. But, only if CSE hires are open to advancement and comfortable with the digital interface.

Fluency-

“We are…mm…we will…try to…umm…solve your…problem” (Imagine that your customer service agents say this).

Chances are, your customers are not patient enough to deal with abrupt pauses and lengthy discussions. A valuable long conversation on the concerned topic can give your agents a bonus point for helpfulness. But, a conversation that is uselessly dragging on may cost you the loss of a valued client.

Most customers expect instant solutions to their problems. Therefore, 67% of customer loss is avoidable only through solving concerns promptly, reports Ameyo Stats.

This is because slow-witted customer agents often engender frustration in their clients. The combination of humor, general intelligence, and politeness will help you establish a strong bond with your customers.

Pronunciation-

Lastly, what impacts a conversation with a customer is pronunciation. Depending on the birth region of an individual and the surrounding, there can be differences in pronouncing a syllable. This happens because certain muscles are not actively performing due to a lack of habit.

Another issue can be confusion between two similar-sounding syllables. The pronunciation of a good customer service agent must be clear and understandable. Customers’ pronunciations, however, are not controllable nor predictable.

So, why not use common sense in the latter case?

Final Words

PMaps CSA and eVA hiring tools help you secure all the ideal skills for customer service so that you can take a sigh of relief and relax. The PMaps reports will help you organize the required training and resources. Also, you can shortlist the frontline candidates that will lead the team of new hires.

A detailed, upfront evaluation of candidates protects you from certain customer service gaffes. After all, everything comes down to the quality of the workforce employed by your company. Hire your candidates wisely through the pre-hiring test and reach your customers wholeheartedly!

How to Spot the imposter candidate in a job interview through Body Language

Spot the imposter candidate in a job interview through Body Language

No matter how hard you try, that one candidate with the typical face of a nerd, lingers in your mind during and after the job interview. Something about the way they sit, stand, walk, and speak, makes them an unarguably ideal selection. No wonder, an individual’s body language at a job interview can say just as much as their words do!

Job interview body language refers to the expected behavior of the candidate while attending a job interview. Body posture can convey confidence, interest, as well as engagement – or in contrast, inattentiveness, boredom, and aloofness.

And once candidates step foot into the interview venue, their self-presentation improves exponentially. Suddenly, every aspirant employee of your organization looks smart, enthusiastic, positive, and fit-for-the-role.

This article kills two birds with one stone! It starts by exposing the 3 nonverbal messages which will help you spot the imposter candidate in a job interview. The major takeaways of this article are the 3 best HR tech tools that lessen your investment while hiring truthful candidates. Let’s knuckle down before any final hiring decision is taken!

3 Interview Body Language Cues Of Lying

According to research by Albert Mehrabian, body language expresses 55% of our communication, while 38% is through the tone of our voice, and only 7% is expressed through the words we use. Therefore, it becomes important to decode the cues individuals reveal by their behavior.

There are 3 major expressive body parts that the reader must keep in mind – the face, the hands, and the feet. Decoding the lying cues of an individual is often difficult, because the candidate is largely unaware of such behavior on their part. There are two famous theories behind such distinguishable actions.

The first one was proposed by Paul Ekman & Friesen (1969), namely Leakage Theory, which believed in a psychoanalytic proposition that liars tend to be emotionally unstable, amidst the mixed feelings of anxiety, fear, sadness, and more. This tension is transferred to various body parts, such as face, limbs, eyes, voice, and so on. This results in them showing signs of discomfort, and subsequently, deception.

According to the second popular theory suggested by Vrij and colleagues (2008, 2016, 2017), which is the Cognitive Load Theory, emotional experiences differ between truth tellers and liars. This theory explains why there has to be a difference and justifies the need for lying. Job interview lying, for instance, is dependent on the demand of the interview setting. Unaware actions of the face, feet, and hands are driven by the need for attaining the desired job post.

It can be challenging to read between the lines when it comes to facial expressions. Lips, tongue, eyes, cheek muscles, nose, and even ears, can expose a liar. These subtle interview body language cues distinguish genuine responses from made-up responses. However, the cues often slide past our attention.

Some of these are as follows;

• Micro-expressions: Expressions such as pressed lips and tight facial muscles can be significant signs of a lying candidate. Look out for expressions that occur at the same time as your candidates speak. Pay attention to expressions that last more than a second. • Tongue: Flickering of the tongue can be a sign of lying. Licking the lips shows nervousness. • Eyes: Dilation and contraction of pupils can be one of the clear cues of liars in a job interview. Dilation of pupils shows excitement on the part of the candidate, while contracted pupils reflect basic calmness. A constant fluctuation or avoidance of eye contact can display cues of lying.

Interestingly, hands can be the major source of lie detection in a job interview. A study at Michigan University shows that 40% of lies are accompanied by two-handed gestures, whereas 25% of truths show one-handed gestures. There are many other relevant body movement clues that make sense as to why people behave the way they do while lying.

• Placement: Keep an eye on hands that cover the mouth, or scratch the nose, or neck. Lying candidates often indulge in subconscious grooming gestures. • Gesture Timing: Notice the gesture timing. If the candidate gestures before speaking, they are genuine. In case your candidate gestures after speaking, there are chances that the action was practiced. • Palm Positioning: When individuals have something to hide, they position their palm towards the ground. On the other hand, genuine individuals keep it exposed to the surroundings.

In an attempt to master the interview body language, candidates typically miss camouflaging the feet. Feet are unintentionally expressive, as if acting with ‘free will’. Candidates shift, fidget, and adjust their feet when it comes to dealing with an uncomfortable situation during the job interview. Some regular cues that are noticeable, are as follows:

• Distribution Of Weight: Uneven distribution of weight on the legs, while standing, can be a sign that the candidate is not confident about the conversation. Keep a note of the spacing between feet for better identification (adequate space between legs shows confidence). • Movement: Fidgeting side-to-side, or back-and-forth, can be a sign of nervous responses during a job interview. • Direction Of Feet: Feet that point towards the exit reflect the propensity of the candidates to ‘get done’ with the job interview. It shows their disinterest in the job. • Ankle Lock: Ankle locking can be a very peculiar sign of lying candidates. Look out for toe curling and interlocking.

3 Better Alternative Solutions For You: PMaps

No matter how intuitive you are, there are many instances where reading nonverbal cues doesn’t help. The behavior of a candidate can be influenced by the way they think. In fact, there is only a 50% chance that your reading turns out to be right.

Confusion is natural when you are trying to interpret candidates without any certain confirmations. The reason behind an action can be influenced by many external factors and internal factors. It is better to not take any risks while making a final https://pmapstest.com/sales-assessment/hiring decision. These 3 best alternative PMaps solutions can help you thoroughly and accurately assess your candidates and find a good fit:

• Lie Scales: Firstly, as you assess the candidates with skill tests, they inform you about how genuine your candidates really are.

• Proctoring: While done in the background, digital proctors secure the tests. They prevent cheating while candidates are completing the assessments. • BEI: Behavioral Interviews then help you cross-check your filtered candidates. This is done by planned and schemed questionnaires based upon the reports of the lie scales.

Sum Up

We understand how difficult it is to read these body-language cues. Therefore, PMaps brings you an error-free way to evaluate your candidates. Our online skills tests can help you assess candidates’ job-specific abilities and soft skills quickly and thoroughly.

Our reports consist of the prediction regarding employee retention rate in the context of your company values and candidates’ potential salary. This can help you avoid high employee turnover.

Understanding Psychometric Assessment Tests: A Comprehensive Guide

Introduction

In today’s fast-paced world, understanding human behavior, skills, and personality traits has become crucial for both personal growth and professional success. One of the most effective tools for gaining these insights is the psychometric assessment test. These tests are widely used in various fields, from education to recruitment, and offer a scientific approach to measuring an individual's mental abilities and personality characteristics.

What is a Psychometric Assessment Test?

A psychometric assessment test is a structured, objective measure of an individual's cognitive abilities, personality traits, or behavioral tendencies. These tests are designed to assess a wide range of psychological attributes, including intelligence, aptitude, emotional intelligence, and personality. Psychometric tests are often used in educational settings, employment processes, and clinical assessments to provide a quantifiable understanding of a person's strengths and weaknesses.

Types of Psychometric Assessment Tests

Psychometric assessments come in various forms, each tailored to measure different aspects of a person's psychology. The three most common types are:

Cognitive Ability Tests

These tests evaluate an individual's intellectual capabilities, including reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking. Common cognitive ability tests include IQ tests and aptitude tests that measure specific skills like numerical or verbal reasoning.

Personality Tests

Personality tests assess an individual's characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. These tests, such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) or the DISC Personality Test, help identify personality traits and how they influence an individual's interactions with others.

Behavioral Assessments

These tests focus on understanding how a person behaves in specific situations, often under stress or in group dynamics. Behavioral assessments are particularly useful in workplace settings to determine how well an individual may fit within a team or organizational culture.

The Importance of Psychometric Assessment Tests

Psychometric tests provide several benefits, making them an essential tool in various domains:

Objective Measurement

Unlike subjective methods, such as interviews or personal observations, psychometric assessments offer a standardized way to evaluate individuals. This objectivity helps reduce bias and provides a fair assessment of a person’s abilities and traits.

Predictive Power

In recruitment and selection, psychometric tests can predict job performance, suitability for a role, and potential for growth within an organization. This predictive ability is invaluable for employers looking to make informed hiring decisions.

Self-Awareness and Personal Development

For individuals, psychometric tests offer a deep insight into their strengths and areas for improvement. This self-awareness can guide personal and professional development, helping people to make informed decisions about their careers and life goals.

Improved Team Dynamics

In organizational settings, understanding the personality and behavior of team members can enhance collaboration, communication, and overall team performance. Psychometric assessments can identify complementary traits among team members, leading to more cohesive and productive teams.

How Psychometric Assessment Tests Work

Psychometric tests are typically administered through questionnaires that can be completed online or on paper. The structure of these tests varies depending on the attribute being measured:

Questionnaire Design

Psychometric tests are designed with multiple-choice questions or scenarios where respondents must choose the option that best describes them. The questions are crafted to assess specific psychological traits without leading the respondent to a particular answer.

Scoring and Interpretation

After the test is completed, responses are scored based on standardized algorithms. The results are then interpreted to provide insights into the individual’s cognitive abilities, personality traits, or behavioral tendencies. These insights are usually presented in a report that can be used for further analysis or decision-making.

Contextual Relevance

The effectiveness of a psychometric test depends on its relevance to the context in which it is used. For example, a test designed for educational purposes might focus on cognitive abilities and learning styles, while a test for recruitment would emphasize traits relevant to job performance and teamwork.

Applications of Psychometric Assessment Tests

Psychometric assessments have a wide range of applications, making them a versatile tool in both professional and personal contexts:

Recruitment and Selection

Companies use psychometric tests to screen candidates during the hiring process. These tests help identify individuals who not only have the necessary skills but also fit well with the company culture and values.

Employee Development and Training

Psychometric assessments are also used to identify areas where employees may benefit from further training or development. By understanding their strengths and weaknesses, employees can receive targeted support to enhance their performance.

Educational Assessments

In education, psychometric tests are used to assess students' cognitive abilities and learning styles. These assessments can guide educators in developing personalized learning plans that cater to each student's unique needs.

Clinical Psychology

Psychometric tests are an essential tool in clinical psychology for diagnosing mental health conditions, understanding personality disorders, and planning therapeutic interventions. They provide a standardized method for evaluating psychological conditions and tracking progress over time.

Advantages of Psychometric Assessment Tests

The popularity of psychometric tests is due to several key advantages they offer:

Reliability and Validity

Well-designed psychometric tests are both reliable and valid, meaning they consistently measure what they are intended to measure and provide accurate results. This reliability is crucial for making sound decisions based on the test outcomes.

Cost-Effective

Psychometric tests can be a cost-effective solution for organizations looking to streamline their recruitment process or improve employee performance. They reduce the need for extensive interviews and can quickly identify the best candidates for a role.

Scalability

These tests can be administered to large groups of people simultaneously, making them scalable for use in organizations of any size. This scalability is particularly beneficial for companies with high recruitment volumes or extensive training programs.

Time Efficiency

Psychometric assessments can be completed relatively quickly, with most tests taking between 15 to 60 minutes. This efficiency allows for timely decision-making, especially in fast-paced environments.

Limitations and Ethical Considerations

While psychometric assessment tests offer many benefits, they also have limitations and ethical considerations that must be taken into account:

Cultural Bias

Some psychometric tests may be biased towards certain cultural or social groups, leading to inaccurate results. It is essential to ensure that tests are culturally appropriate and that results are interpreted within the context of the individual’s background.

Misuse of Results

There is a risk of psychometric test results being misused, particularly in recruitment, where they might be over-relied upon to the exclusion of other important factors. Ethical use of these tests requires a balanced approach that considers all aspects of a candidate’s profile.

Privacy and Confidentiality

Psychometric tests often involve the collection of sensitive personal data. It is crucial to maintain strict confidentiality and ensure that test results are used ethically and responsibly.

Overemphasis on Testing

Relying too heavily on psychometric tests can lead to an overemphasis on testing, where individuals are judged solely based on their test results rather than a holistic view of their abilities and experiences.

Choosing the Right Psychometric Test

Selecting the right psychometric test depends on the specific needs and goals of the assessment. It is important to consider the following factors:

Purpose of the Test

Clearly define the purpose of the assessment. Whether it’s for recruitment, personal development, or educational evaluation, the test should align with the desired outcomes.

Test Validity

Ensure that the test has been validated for the specific population and context in which it will be used. Validity is critical for obtaining accurate and meaningful results.

Test Provider

Choose a reputable test provider with a track record of delivering reliable and valid assessments. Research and reviews can help in selecting a provider that meets your needs.

Support and Interpretation

Opt for tests that come with comprehensive support and interpretation services. Understanding the results is key to making informed decisions based on the assessment.

Conclusion

Psychometric assessment tests are powerful tools that offer valuable insights into human behavior, personality, and cognitive abilities. They are widely used across various fields, from recruitment and education to personal development and clinical psychology. However, it is essential to approach these tests with an understanding of their limitations and ethical considerations. When used appropriately, psychometric assessments can greatly enhance decision-making processes and contribute to individual and organizational success.

Building Long-Term Partnerships: The Value of Retained Executive Search

When it comes to securing top executive talent, companies often face a critical decision: whether to use a retained executive search firm or opt for a contingency search. While both have their merits, retained executive search offers unique benefits that can lead to building strong, long-term partnerships.

Retained executive search is a partnership where a company pays a search firm a retainer fee to conduct a comprehensive and dedicated search for executive talent. This model is particularly valuable for senior-level positions where finding the right candidate is crucial for the company's success.

One of the primary advantages of retained executive search is the commitment it entails. Search firms are fully dedicated to the client's needs, ensuring a thorough understanding of the company's culture, goals, and specific requirements for the role. This dedication results in a more tailored approach, with the search firm acting as an extension of the company's recruitment team.

Another key benefit is the quality of candidates sourced through retained search. These firms have access to a vast network of high-caliber professionals, many of whom are not actively seeking new opportunities but are open to the right offer. This access to passive candidates can make a significant difference in finding the perfect fit for a senior-level position.

Retained search firms also provide a comprehensive assessment of candidates, including in-depth interviews, psychometric testing, and detailed reference checks. This rigorous evaluation process ensures that only the most qualified and suitable candidates are presented to the client, saving valuable time and resources.

Moreover, the relationship between the client and the retained search firm extends beyond the hiring process. These firms often provide ongoing support, helping with onboarding, integration, and long-term success of the executive hire. This continuous support fosters a strong partnership, leading to better retention rates and overall satisfaction.

At Vantedge Search, we understand the importance of these long-term partnerships. Our approach to retained executive search focuses on building lasting relationships with our clients. We take the time to deeply understand your organization, its values, and its unique needs, ensuring that every candidate we present is not only qualified but also a perfect cultural fit.

In addition to providing top-tier executive search services, Vantedge Search is committed to supporting our clients throughout the entire process. From initial consultation to post-placement support, our team is dedicated to ensuring the success of every executive hire.

The investment in retained executive search pays off through the quality of hires and the strength of the partnership formed. Companies that opt for this model often experience higher success rates in their executive placements, leading to improved performance and growth.

While the cost of retained search may be higher than contingency search, the return on investment is substantial. The thoroughness of the search process, the caliber of candidates, and the ongoing support provided by retained firms result in hires that drive long-term success.

In conclusion, retained executive search is not just a hiring strategy; it's a strategic partnership that aligns with a company's long-term goals. By choosing a retained search firm like Vantedge Search, companies can ensure they are securing the best executive talent available while fostering relationships that contribute to sustained growth and success.
