Not only are the numerical scores recorded, but each rating is supported by specific examples of behavior observed in each exercise. This integration is accomplished by a statistical combination of data. The final rating on each performance dimension is based on multiple raters evaluating performance in different exercises. The result is a comprehensive picture of each candidate s capabilities and a quantitative evaluation on job-related dimensions. In an assessment center, each candidate s behavior is evaluated on several behavioral dimensions.
Assessors assign a rating to the relevant dimensions in each exercise.
Ratings are then combined across assessors and exercises to reach a final numerical score for the behavioral dimension. The behavioral dimensions used to evaluate candidates are listed and defined below. Written Communication Effectiveness of expression in writing. Interpersonal Insight Perceiving and reacting to the needs of others. Objectivity of perceiving impact of self on others.
