AssessFirst Offers Soft Skills-Based Predictive Recruitment at SHRM Talent
French company introduces a new kind of assessment test

AssessFirst, a rapid-growth company revolutionizing the recruitment industry, today brings its unique predictive recruitment platform to the SHRM Talent Conference and Exposition.

The company, which is headquartered in Paris, France, helps more than 10,000 recruiters and HR professionals in more than 30 countries predict the potential of candidates in the jobs for which they are being recruited. The AssessFirst application goes above and beyond simply evaluating one’s resume, by determining who someone really is, what they can do and how they want to do it.

“At AssessFirst, we believe that one’s resume doesn’t accurately represent their potential,” says David Bernard, CEO of AssessFirst. “With the help of our technology, AssessFirst offers a fairer experience for every candidate and gives recruiters the confidence that they are hiring someone who will not only succeed, but thrive in his or her new role.”

By using the AssessFirst method, companies are able to reduce their turnover by 50%, increase their employees’ performance by 15% and reduce their recruitment time by 30%.

“Using AssessFirst’s unique technology, employers and recruiters can identify candidates and employees who can succeed in a particular role – within the ultra-specific context of that company,” says Adi Schnall, U.S. account executive.

AssessFirst’s popularity doesn’t stop with the companies using the platform. 98% of candidates were impressed by the solution, saying that their results helped them better prepare for their interviews and career paths. Potential candidates can take the assessment for free and can now even share the soft skills that characterize them on their social networks, including LinkedIn.
