More on Caliper assessments
The Caliper assessment evaluates an individual’s personality, behavioural patterns, and motivations to gauge their professional performance. Through 98 targeted questions, it examines personality traits plus key competencies including cognitive skills, problem-solving capabilities, communication, service focus, relationship building, teamwork, and leadership maturity.
The Caliper assessment stands out from other personality tests because it is uniquely designed for business use and offers greater predictive accuracy versus resume screening alone. With less potential for bias, the Caliper personality assessment has been a trusted tool used by employers for more than 50 years.
Talogy Caliper™ is a complete talent assessment solution that allows organisations to take a deep dive into their people – from applicants and employees, to wider teams and the overall organisation.
The Caliper assessment has no set time limit, but it typically takes about one hour to complete. More or less time may be necessary depending on the individual applicant.
Employers can customise the Talogy Caliper assessment for specific job roles by selecting an applicable job model to compare prospective hires. If the existing models are not a good fit, our experts can create a custom job model tailored to the specific role.
The Talogy Caliper assessment offers reports for selection, coaching, and individual development.
– Selection reports focus on how well a candidate aligns with the position they are being considered for.
– Coaching reports identify areas for improvement, including additional training and/or preparation for future responsibilities.
– Individual development guides, typically provided to current employees by their manager, highlight ways employees can be more proactive while fostering better communication with management.
Talogy ensures the accuracy and relevance of Caliper assessments through ongoing validation and reliability studies. This analysis prioritises the predictiveness of each test, enhancing its reliability.
Caliper assessments can be valuable for team development, as they are designed to provide essential information about people’s ability to work in a team, including their motivators and competencies. This information helps employers determine if the team is missing any essential competencies to be fully effective.
