Our assessment concept
Persona assessment – valuable insights and informed decisions. We believe in people's potential to grow as individuals and leaders.
An assessment provides an independent analysis and a deeper understanding of a person's capacity and what she or he needs to succeed in a certain role and environment.
As a candidate, an assessment gives you the opportunity for reflection and useful insights - a preparation for taking on a new role or challenge.
Our assessments go beyond mere testing. We combine various psychometric methods with a structured in-depth interview and solid feedback dialogue for the best accuracy and opportunity for personal growth. An assessment creates value in recruitments, management reviews and or succession planning for existing leaders.
At Persona, we also have experience in forming and moderating assessment centers - a powerful methodology for working in a structured way with succession and leadership development. An assessment centre involves cases and tasks designed for your organisation.
Persona's assessment concept
Persona´s process is based on the guidelines of ISO (International Organization for Standardization) to secure the quality and ethical aspects of the assessment. We use adequate scientific test methods and competency based interview technique.
Requirement analysis
Primarily a requirement analysis is carried out to gain a solid understanding of the organization, the position and the assessment criteria. If desired, we can consult you in forming of the requirement profile.
Assessment
Based on the requirement analysis, various assessment methods are combined in order to provide a profound valuation. We use a competency-based interview to validate the test results. The candidate is given thorough personal feedback.

We present our conclusions in dialogue with our clients to ensure quality and ethics. We provide our overall assessment based on the test results and the behavioural interview. Persona’s consultants always give a clear recommendation.
