I am still a bit disappointed that the majority of talent management vendors do not include assessment as a core part of their product offering. However, there were many talent management vendors who have begun to take steps down the right path. There were more vendors than ever offering a variety of interesting and unique products that demonstrate a continued deeper integration of assessment products designed to do more than just sling tests at job applicants.

Every year I attend the annual Society for Industrial Organizational Psychology conference to learn and make sure I am in touch with the latest goings-on in my field. This past year I was very excited to walk away with an unpublished research paper titled Legal Risk in Selection: An analysis of processes and tools, by Kate Williams, a doctoral candidate at Clemson University.

The web sure is an interesting place. Where else can people you have never met find you and reach out for highly specific advice, providing real world stories that help us keep in touch with the end-user perspective?

The general climate among HR and staffing professionals is that pre-employment assessment is a complex and confusing matter that is not really worth the hassle. Why is this so?

Thought leadership, opinions, and news related to pre-employment testing and assessment
Besides causing serious concerns about personal privacy, when has Google ever been wrong? I am sure they have had a few projects that have not worked out but few can argue that they have been a major driver in the evolution of the web.
We are very excited to announce our Tenth anniversary!!! That's right, through good times and bad we at Rocket-Hire continue to work hard to promote the benefits of best practices based screening and assessment programs.
I want to highlight a few trends that I find interesting and which are consistent with my own work as an assessment analyst. Most of the things I find interesting have to do with disconnects between what companies are saying they value and the actions they are using to prove it.
