Behavioral Assessment Tools

Behavioral assessment tools measure behavioral competencies in a simulated work environment. Behavioral assessment tools require candidates to demonstrate their behavioral skills in an activity that resembles an actual organizational situation. Behavioral assessment tools are available in online and offline formats. Some examples of online behavioral assessment tools are in-tray exercises, situational judgment questionnaires and case study simulators. Offline behavioral assessment tools available on the market include role-plays, behavioral or competency-based interviews, case presentations, etc.

Behavioral assessment tools are commonly used to hire the best-fit candidates, develop the right employees and make informed decisions on your organization’s future leaders. Behavioral assessment tools are created based on specific job functions, i.e., they are customized to emulate a particular job’s realities, posing questions that reflect actual workplace situations.
