What are Gamified Assessments?

Gamified Assessment uses game-like mechanics and design to provide an automated, alternative selection, onboarding, and training solution. Proven to give you an enhanced candidate and recruiter experience at a more affordable price point. Yet still maintaining all the same benefits as traditional assessment solutions. 

Through Gamified Assessment, organisations can customise their solution to match their organisation's values, tone, aesthetics, and culture, giving prospective hires a solid but unique first impression.

So, should I stop using traditional Psychometric Assessment?

Not quite. While Gamification is a wonderful concept, traditional solutions are still an excellent option for some organisations, offering a slightly higher quality of test results (validity & reliability). 

Gamification is a more automated process that requires less input from your recruiters or existing employees—further boasting an efficient screening process, automatic feedback reports, and notifications for potential candidates for the next steps, resulting in a more symmetrical interaction between company and candidate. 

So, are Gamified Assessments better than Traditional Solutions? 

One isn't better than the other; it all depends on your organisation's needs and the fit of the assessment solution into your organisation. 

Traditional solutions that ask candidates to answer questions about themselves may take longer for candidates to complete. However, it delivers a high-quality result. In addition, standard solutions are most utilised after pre-screening has been completed, which plays into the potential increase in cost and hours spent by employees completing the screening process. 

Gamification is a cost-effective method designed to be placed at the forefront of your recruitment process. Providing candidates insight into your organisation while assessing their workplace behavioural competencies. Plus, the added benefit of a faster turnaround for both candidate and client while still providing a comparable level of assessment results.
