Pre-employment assessment and psychometric testing can eliminate bias and expand applicant pools in several ways:

  1. Reducing Bias: Reputable psychometric tests are created to minimize bias, which can help ensure that candidates are evaluated based on their job-related skills and abilities rather than personal characteristics such as race or gender. The result is reduced unconscious bias and a broader pool of applicants under consideration.
  2. Fairness and Objectivity: Pre-employment psychometric tests provide a standardized, objective evaluation of all candidates. They help ensure fairness and reduce the risk of subjective assessments that may be influenced by unconscious bias.
  3. Identifying Talented Candidates: Pre-employment psychometric tests can help identify job applicants with the necessary job-related skills and abilities, regardless of their background or characteristics. Talented candidates who may have been overlooked otherwise using traditional hiring methods are now part of an expanded pool of qualified applicants.
  4. Increase in Diversity: By eliminating unconscious bias and providing a fair and objective evaluation of all candidates, pre-employment psychometric tests can help increase the DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) in the applicant pool.

Addressing workplace diversity, equity and inclusion challenges before they occur can help create a more positive, productive work environment.
