Will Do<br />
Will Fit<br />

Can Do – to underst<strong>and</strong> present level of skills <strong>and</strong><br />
knowledge<br />
these <strong>assessment</strong>s have been designed to evaluate professional abilities, skills <strong>and</strong> aptitudes.<br />
We work with clients to select the <strong>assessment</strong>s that are appropriate to their business needs. A<br />
large catalogue of <strong>assessment</strong>s is available, including, amongst others:<br />
• Analysing numerical data<br />

Will Do – to underst<strong>and</strong> personal motivation <strong>and</strong> conduct<br />
this questionnaire provides a profile of a person’s attitudes, work motivations <strong>and</strong> energy. the<br />
Will do forms the basis for an in-depth interview <strong>and</strong> coaching session for the c<strong>and</strong>idate. the<br />
following attributes are evaluated:<br />
• Reliability/conscientiousness<br />
• Social skills <strong>and</strong> ability to work with others<br />
• motivation <strong>and</strong> commitment<br />
• Performance under stressful conditions<br />
• Safety orientation (for industrial positions)<br />
Will Fit – to underst<strong>and</strong> preferences in the work environment<br />
the objective here is to learn whether a c<strong>and</strong>idate will fit in well with the culture <strong>and</strong> environment of<br />
your work place. Our consultants will meet with you to underst<strong>and</strong> your organisational profile.<br />
Right-Result automatically matches a c<strong>and</strong>idate’s profile to the one you have specified. twelve key<br />
attributes are evaluated, including, amongst others:<br />
• Preference for working alone or in teams<br />
• Reactions to management control versus working independently<br />
• Need for varied tasks versus routine<br />
• Ability to complete tasks with <strong>and</strong> without time pressure<br />
<strong>C<strong>and</strong>idate</strong>s can access the testing <strong>and</strong> training facilities in any of the branches or on the internet. Clients will be able to tailor these<br />
evaluations to the specific requirements of the job role <strong>and</strong> can even incorporate h<strong>and</strong>s-on practical <strong>assessment</strong>s.<br />
there’s no better, faster or more cost-effective way to assess a c<strong>and</strong>idates’ skills <strong>and</strong> suitability.<br />
