Script

In a performance test, a testee performs rather than answers the questions of evaluators.
A work sample test is hands-on simulation of part or all of the work that job applicants for routine jobs must perform.


A critical incident is a way of evaluating the behaviors that are key in making the difference between executing a job effectively and executing it ineffectively.
A realistic job preview is a substantive selection test that is a job tryout to assess talent versus experience. On the other side, this preview provides both positive and negative information about the job and the employer.
A situational judgment test is about performance despite the fact that this test includes questions and answers. In this test, job applicants are asked how they would perform in a variety of job situations; the answers are then compared to the answers of high-performing employees.
Not every employer can accommodate or choose to accommodate performance and other competence assessments, especially complex ones. An assessment center is an off-site place where employment candidates are given a set of activities, especially performance simulation tests designed to evaluate their c-level executive potential.
Those temp agencies that specialize in accounting and office administration regularly setup their in-house computer-based assessment facilities.

Selection Phases is the successor lectio.
