Testing & Training

Xpert is designed around a methodology that evaluates candidates not only for the specific skills you need, but also studies their motivations for work and ability to fit into your company's culture. A three-focused approach is adopted.

Can Do – to understand present level of skills and knowledge

This module has been designed to evaluate professional abilities, skills and aptitudes. We work with clients to select the assessments that are appropriate to their business needs. Large catalogues of assessments are available, including, amongst others:

1. Administration/organisation
2. Commercial
3. Technical, Professional IT, SAP
4. Accounting and finance
5. Sales, customer service, contact centre
6. Logistics, industrial, manufacturing

Additionally we can create customised assessments that evaluate whether candidates have the specific knowledge you require for your business.

Will Do – to understand personal motivation and conduct

This questionnaire provides a profile of a person's attitudes, work motivations and energy. The following attributes are evaluated. The Will Do forms the basis for an in-depth interview and coaching session for the candidate.

1. Reliability/conscientiousness Social skills and ability to work with others
2. Motivation and commitment
3. Performance under stressful conditions
4. Safety orientation (for industrial positions)

Will Fit – to understand preferences in the work environment

The objective here is to learn whether a candidate will fit in well with the culture and environment of your work place. Our consultants will meet with you to understand your organisational profile. Xpert automatically matches a candidate's profile to the one you have specified. Twelve key attributes are evaluated, including, amongst others:

1. Preference for working alone or in teams
2. Reactions to management control versus working independently
3. Need for varied tasks versus routine
4. Ability to complete tasks with and without time pressure
