An Assessment Center is a structured methodology for assessing competencies, behavior, and potential, used in a variety of contexts such as recruitment, promotion, internal mobility, succession planning, and talent identification and development.
In practice, it’s a reality test.
We create challenges that replicate real job situations to observe how each person thinks, decides, and acts.
The focus is not on evaluating what people say or what they’ve done in the past, but on assessing real, current behavior, competencies, and potential.
This methodology includes:
- Critical simulations related to the role
- Business cases based on the company’s context
- Role plays involving leadership and decision-making situations
- Individual and team exercises
How do our Assessment Centers work?
We don’t use standard models. Each Assessment Center is designed from scratch to reflect the organization’s reality and needs, and may include different components:
- Identification of objectives and definition of the competency profile (or adaptation of an existing one)
- Development of exercises based on real situations, aligned with the organizational and role context
- Evaluation conducted by a panel of experienced assessors, ensuring the integration of multiple sources of evidence with consistency, rigor, and reliability
- Integration of validated tools (cognitive, behavioral, and personality) to complement observation, strengthen decision quality, and provide consistent data on competencies, behavioral styles, and development potential
But the focus is never the tool.
It’s behavior in a real context.
