Understand How Our Assessments Work
Match candidates’ behavioral fit to your roles with a situational judgement test.





Situational judgement tests are usually found at the beginning of the assessment process. They provide candidates an opportunity to learn about your business, are fully branded, and often include a warm welcome from your team.

Each candidate completes a short series of role- and culture-based scenarios that reflect their judgement. SJTs can be tailored to specific roles or drawn from SHL’s comprehensive bank when you need to deploy quickly.

Our trusted science then scores each candidate’s behavioral fit to your role using our proprietary Universal Competency Framework, the industry’s leading assessment of behavioral competency.

Send the best-fit candidates through to the next stage of your hiring process without lifting a finger, while increasing your chances for high-quality hires. SJTs are available within most SHL talent acquisition solutions.
