Pre-employment psychological assessments

Psych-exam.com helps you dig deep before you hire

It’s an all too common story. High hopes for a new employee turn into frustration and trouble, even though the candidate’s qualifications looked so promising in the beginning.

Routine background checks, drug screenings, one-size-fits-all talent assessments, and personality tests only tell part of the story.

A candidate may look good on paper. He or she may appear to have an impressive skill set and excellent experience. They may know how to answer all the interview questions just right. They may even have excellent references, but that’s no guarantee they will do their job wisely and safely, especially under pressure.

Get Started

Our pre-employment psychological assessment process

STEP-01

Consult

First, a psych-exam.com psychologist will discuss the particular hiring needs of your organization.

Together, you and the clinician will formulate a customized strategy that will assist your organization in identifying the very best job candidate.

STEP-02

Assess

There are three parts to a psych-exam.com pre-employment psychological assessment.

Part One

Fist, an in-depth “job analysis” is performed. This includes analyzing the official job description, work-site conditions, and required job skills to determine if the candidate has the skills and abilities required by the position.

Part Two

Next, a psych-exam.com psychologist will conduct an extensive clinical interview of the candidate either in-person or via telehealth. This interview includes an in-depth history of employment, education, disciplinary actions, legal history, substance abuse history, and other important information.

Part Three

The last piece of the pre-hire assessment is the actual evaluation. A comprehensive psychological assessment is performed using the two most widely-respected assessment tools in the psychology profession. These professional assessments can only be administered by a licensed psychologist.

These tests measure normal and abnormal behaviors and traits to determine psychological risk factors and whether a candidate can safely, ethically, and successfully perform the duties required by the position.

STEP-03

Analyze

Once the three parts of the evaluation are completed, the collected data is carefully analyzed and interpreted by a licensed doctor of psychology who has specialized training in administering and interpreting psychological evaluations for employment.

For continuity, the same clinical psychologist who conducted the psychological evaluation will analyze the findings and prepare the report.

Reporting

A report is carefully compiled that lays out the findings of the evaluation in an easy to understand format.

Depending on the preferences of the employer, the report can be delivered in a summary format—which delivers just the highlights of the evaluation.

However, if the employer needs more detail, the clinical psychologist will prepare a report that presents the findings in great depth.

The level of detail required in the report by the employer will be discussed during the consultation phase of the psych-exam.com process

STEP-04

Act

The final step of the process is simple—the employer will make a hiring decision based on the findings of the evaluation.

Now your hiring team can make a confident decision about whether or not to hire the candidate.
