Improve Your Recruitment with Business EQ

Business Emotional Intelligence (EQ) psychometric assessments allow you to quickly "get under the skin" of a candidate and find out if they are the right fit for your organisation. Using Business EQ during recruitment enables you to:

  • Stop losing money from poor recruitment decisions.

  • Improve the calibre of new employees.

  • Build stronger and more productive teams.

  • Reduce your cost per hire without impacting on quality.

  • Retain and develop the hidden potential of your current workforce.

Business EQ psychometric assessments help hiring managers look at the way a person manages their Emotional Behaviour BEFORE making a hiring decision. It’s fast, easy to use and inexpensive.

It occurred to me that the EBW Report would resonate much better and provide my managers with more insights into what makes me tick - than if they read my OPQ 32 personality profile. I will be recommending that we use the EBW in the future.

Introducing our unique
Impression Management Tool (IMT)

Most candidates will “turn it on” for an interview but the EBW Assessment has a unique Impression Management Tool (IMT) that reveals what your candidates do not want you to know:

  • How engaged are they in the assessment process?

  • How good an impression are they trying to make?

  • Are they attempting to fix their assessment answers?

  • Are they being honest with themselves?

Dearden Assessment has been using the EBW to assess candidates for executive and professional positions since 2011. Over that time we have found it to be the most effective psychometric instrument, to give our clients an accurate picture of the personal attributes, leadership style and preferred method of working of the candidates.

Whilst our Business Emotional intelligence Assessments are great for organisations, creating a bespoke assessment system enables you to make further cost savings and efficiencies, by developing sifting and assessment tools that are unique to your requirements.

The scope of our bespoke service is boundless, from a simple re-skin of the EBW assessment to mirror your company branding, to starting from scratch - designing and validating new psychometric tests and assessment / development systems bespoke to your organisation.

Most organisations who are looking for a bespoke service take a halfway point between the two, opting for a bespoke assessment and report that is quickly created by using the extensive EBW database of predictive questions matched with their competency framework or job role.

An EBW Global Certified Partner (supported by one of our International Business Psychologists) will work with you to develop your bespoke assessment and reports, so your programmes are more cost effective, provide greater predictive validity and feature improved user and candidate experience.
