Our assessments are advanced, data-driven tools used to measure an individual’s personality, cognitive abilities, and workplace behaviours. Unlike a CV or a standard interview, which can be subjective, these assessments provide objective insights into how a person thinks, works, and interacts within a team.

Hiring is a high-stakes investment. Research shows that using data-driven assessments can reduce hiring bias by up to 60% and improve the quality of hire by nearly 40%. Our process moves decision-making from “gut feeling” to measurable evidence, ensuring you hire the right person for the right seat.

It is a powerful tool for the entire employee lifecycle. Lead Talent uses these assessments for:

• Succession Planning: Identifying future leaders.
• Team Building: Understanding why certain teams clash or excel.
• 1-to-1 Coaching: Helping individuals understand their “blind spots.”
• Retention: Understanding what motivates your top performers so you can keep them engaged.

Almost none. That is the primary benefit of the Lead Talent managed service; you provide the candidate list, and we handle the rest—from building the campaign and sending invites to monitoring completion rates and delivering final insights. We act as a seamless extension of your internal team.

We prioritise a positive assessment experience. Most personality questionnaires are designed to be engaging and take between 20 and 30 minutes to complete. They are mobile-friendly and can be completed anywhere.

The cost of a “wrong hire” is typically estimated at 3x an employee’s annual salary. By using our data-driven approach, you significantly reduce this risk. We help you identify the specific traits that drive high performance in your unique environment, increasing productivity while reducing costly staff turnover.

We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all”. During our Discovery phase, we work with you to identify the specific competencies required for your role. We then build a bespoke questionnaire from 46 different scales to ensure we are only measuring what is relevant to your business and culture.

We understand that speed is vital in recruitment. Once a candidate hits “submit,” our reports are generally sent back to the client the same day.

Quite the opposite. High-calibre candidates appreciate a professional, rigorous selection process. It shows them that your company takes its culture and hiring seriously. Because we handle the administration through a sleek, modern interface, it reflects positively on your employer brand.

The questionnaires include a social desirability scale. This helps identify if an individual is trying to present an overly “perfect” image of themselves. Our reports then provide specific guidance on how to explore these results further with an individual.

Yes. We can include your company logo and tailor the welcome message the individual receives to ensure a consistent brand experience.

Absolutely. Traditional recruitment often relies on subjective “cultural fit,” which can inadvertently lead to “hiring in our own image”. Our assessments focus on objective competencies and behaviours. By using Lead Talent to manage your campaigns, you ensure every candidate is measured against the same scientific benchmark, creating a fairer, more inclusive process.

Yes. One of our most popular services is “Success Profiling.” We can assess your top performers to understand the “DNA” of success in your company. We then use that data to build a bespoke campaign and report to find more people exactly like them.

A candidate feedback report is provided to you which you can share with the candidate.
