Psychometrics in the Corporate World

While psychometric testing has been with us for at least a century, it's only relatively recently that the industry has reached maturity.

Its primary use remains as an interview tool for assessing job candidates, but it's also used increasingly for understanding existing employees' attitudes to their jobs, and to define a personalised development map for their career progress. One of the prime aspects of psychometrics is responsible use of its results. While it's a powerful, insightful tool for looking below a person's exterior, taken in isolation it can conceal more than it reveals. Like so many other powerful tools, its power lies in the expertise of the user.
