We’re proud to officially launch of the All-In-One assessment, a bespoke candidate assessment that’s fully customisable to specific roles and cultures. The revolutionary new assessment has been designed to be a one-stop-shop for the three Cs of recruitment, these are:

Capability –  Can they do the job?

The assessment tests the skills required for a specific role in a hyper-relevant work context.

Commitment – Do they want to do the job?

The assessment tests the commitment knowledge the candidate has of the role, product or service and the organization.

Culture Fit – Will they thrive in the culture?

Will they thrive in the culture? The assessment tests how well their preferred working style fits in with your unique culture.

Of all the hires that fail, 89% are not because of technical ability, they are concerned with the fit to the culture of the organisation. A hiring process that takes this into account alongside whether a candidate can and wants to do the job, can significantly reduce turnover rates, time spent on recruitment and improve the candidate experience.

Psychological theory, practical solution

Unlike traditional psychometrics, the all-in-one assessment takes candidates through a typical day in the role or company, allowing applicants to get a realistic picture of the role and culture ahead of joining the company. The all-in-one assessment relies on measuring real-life scenarios. It compares how candidates perform against the results of employees who thrive in that job. If an employer can’t demonstrate how an attribute presents itself in a real workplace scenario, it won’t be measured.

“The biggest problem for companies looking to solve their volume hiring needs is that the solutions they are given are derived from abstract and generic psychological tests that are not directly relevant to today’s ever-changing workplace. The all-in-one assessment takes scientific research out of the lab, making it relevant and useful to hiring managers.”

ThriveMap’s Chief Science Officer, Dr Stephanie Cook.

A fairer way to hire

Each assessment is built in collaboration with the organization. ThriveMap works with the HR team and all relevant departments across the business, to create an assessment that is true-to-life, relevant, and unique. It involves stakeholders from the start, ensuring they feel included and involved in the process. This holistic approach makes the assessment is part of the business and establishes a clear blueprint that everyone across the business can follow.

“Pre-hire assessments are an invaluable tool in the recruitment process, but in today’s competitive environment, just looking at skills and experience only provides part of the picture,” says Chris Platts, Co-Founder of ThriveMap. “Cultural fit is becoming increasingly important in an evolving job market, with employees wanting to feel connected and engaged with their employer. The all-in-one assessment provides that missing piece, revealing not only who can do the job but also who will be most suited.”

Saving time and money on high volume hiring

The all-in-one assessment is particularly suitable for high-volume hiring, where companies need to work their way through a large number of applications. The assessment can last up to 15 minutes, depending on how detailed the organization wants the assessment to be.
