A Company is know by the people it keeps
Every organization is a mini global village.
Its work force made up of a unique combination of personalities,
ethnic and religious backgrounds, cultures and traditions, socio-economic
backgrounds and languages, working towards a common goal.
Every manager has to be a mini United Nations
minister to work in this background, and every person hired has
to be someone who can contribute positively to this setup, not only
in terms of productivity, but also in terms of emotional and personal
stability.
While organizations have been focusing on recruiting
individuals who have been the top achievers academically, or who
have a degree from a reputed college, or through their own achievement
tests, what they fail to recognize is that an intellectually superior
person may or can be the most inept when it comes to working with
others, and an average person may or can display the greatest wisdom.
It is therefore the combination of IQ and emotional intelligence
that is the hallmark of an ideal candidate.
Our diagnostic tests help an organization select
the best person for the job instead of one who will 'just do'. This
minimizes the possibility of a costly 'near miss' and its attendant
effects on morale and overall performance. In addition, our tests
also help in selecting and evaluating present employees relevant
to training, promotion, transfer and reassignment.
Each of our tests has been tried for reliability
and validity on a sample of at-least 1500 subjects. The psychological
tools that we develop or use are adapted for Pakistan society, and
Pakistani norms have been developed and used. Some companies use
our custom made tests specifically developed for them.
Intelligence Test (IQ)
The intelligence tests measure logical reasoning, the level at
which an individual learns, understands instructions, and solves
problems. It provides quantitative insight into how easily individuals
can be trained, how well they can adjust, and how well satisfied
they are likely to be with the demands of the jobs. These are verbal
or non-verbal depending on the educational level of the candidate.
