Research has proven that cognitive ability, or general
intelligence, is the single greatest predictor of job success - for any
position. More effective than resumes, education, references or
interviews, cognitive ability testing gives you the objective information
you need to make the right hiring decision.
The WPT takes only 12 minutes to
complete. It accurately measures a candidate's ability to:
- Learn a specific job
- Solve problems
- Understand instructions
- Apply knowledge to new situations
- Benefit from specific job training
- Be satisfied with a particular job
The WPT enables you to match people with
positions that suit their learning speed and aptitude. Using normative
information, data from the Dictionary of Occupational Titles (DOT) and the
U.S. Department Of Labor's O*Net database, CBS can provide suggested
minimum scores for every job in the economy.
Implementation
The WPT can be used to match job candidates or employees to
jobs in which they will be effective and satisfied. WPT information helps
shorten training time and reduce turnover from employees who are over- or
under-challenged in a given position.
