Assessment Centres: A Practical Handbook

An Assessment Centre (AC) is an evaluation process which can be used to identify the potential of employees and job candidates for a broad range of functions. With an increasing number of organizations now using ACs, this text aims to make them more accessible to practitioners. The book provides an inside view of ACs and a clear and comprehensive idea of how to put an AC into practice; examples of procedures, diagrams, questionnaires, practical suggestions and pitfalls; detailed descriptions of every stage in the AC process, from planning to evaluation; and practical experience of ACs and how they work in various organizations.
