What is the Assessment Experience Like?
The WPLC Team were all impressed by the way in which Psybil® has clearly been designed with the user in mind.
One of the ways that the WPLC team thought Psybil® demonstrated this is the way in which the Psybil® assessment can be taken in split sessions.
The members of the WPLC team all did their Psybil® assessments in one session, which showed that taking this sort of assessment is no walk in the park.
Being able to split the assessment process into different sessions would help to avoid cognitive fatigue. Who would not want to avoid that?
The Way You Want To
Psybil® facilitates individuals taking the assessment in a way that suits them.
The WPLC team believe this will increase motivation to complete the assessment and result in increased interest in the reports.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Long is An Assessment?
This depends on the needs of the company, and the degree of customization. However, the average length of time that it took members of the WPLC team to complete the assessment battery (we did everything before deciding to add Psybil® to our catalogue) was just over an hour.
Is Psybil® Expensive?
There is no such thing as a cheap psychometric assessment.
The question to ask is how much do you value information that would help to stop you hiring or promoting a person who was unsuitable for a job?
The price of Psybil® is a fraction of the real cost of promoting the wrong person or failing to identify a high potential leader.
Is it legal?
Yes!
With data security being such a sensitive issue it is reasonable to wonder about the relationship between psychological assessments and data protection and privacy legislation.
Psybil® complies with the ethical standards of the American Psychological Association and the standards of the US Department of Labor.
