Following TAC Europe’s recent appointment
as a SHL partner company, March 2nd 2006, saw them launch their Psychometric
Assessment service to the market. The event was held at their new
European headquarters, Matrix House at Basing View Business Park,
Basingstoke.
Effective use of ‘psychometric assessment’ plays a valuable role
in making any candidate selection process objective and fair. Occupational
testing will not only help to protect an organisation from a discrimination
or unfair dismissal claim but also speeds up the recruitment cycle,
improve it’s accuracy and helps promote a company as a prospective
employer to applicants who are increasingly in demand.
Key speakers at the event included Henry Clinton-Davis, Partner
(Labour and Employment) at WilmerHale, one of UK’ s and USA’s most
respected law firms and Sean Howard, Sales Director for SHL Ltd,
a world leader in people assessment.
Elizabeth Battle, HR Manager, TAC Europe & event host commented “The
hiring of a new employee is one of the most important decisions a
manager is called upon to make, psychometric assessment can add great
benefits as part of an organisation’s recruitment process”
TAC Europe’s trained & SHL qualified consultants are able to provide
a comprehensive psychometric service to their own direct clients.
In addition as a SHL partner company, they are also able to provide
smaller recruitment consultancies with access to SHL tools & consultancy
which would otherwise be prohibitively expensive to obtain.
Elizabeth Battle further commented “We are committed to guiding
all our clients & business partners through the maze of psychometrics.
We can assist in determining how objective assessment can bring benefit
to an organisation. We are able to work closely with consultants
and hiring managers in order to tailor our service based upon budget & operational
considerations”
The launch was well received, with key industry representatives
attending such as the CIPD, North Hants Chamber of Commerce, EMC,
Mann Aviation, Royal Bank of Scotland & FSS.
