FAQs

How can organizations reduce time-to-hire while maintaining high candidate quality?

Integrating automated screening tools significantly reduces the administrative burden on recruitment teams. For example, utilizing the Accelium Talent Assessment platform’s AI-driven filtering has been shown to reduce the average time to evaluate a candidate from 120 minutes (using traditional methods) to just 45 minutes. This efficiency allows HR professionals to focus their efforts on interviewing only the most promising talent.

Why is it difficult to assess soft skills like critical thinking using traditional interviews?

Traditional evaluation tactics, such as interviews and questionnaires, often suffer from subjectivity and bias, making it hard to determine a candidate’s true soft skills. In contrast, game-based assessments capture the “information trails” users leave behind, such as response time, error correction, and strategy to objectively reveal hidden behaviors like adaptability and resilience that standard tests miss.

How can companies improve candidate engagement and reduce drop-off rates during testing?

Candidates often find traditional psychometric tests stressful and tedious, leading to lower completion rates. Game-based assessments offer a fun, interactive experience that lowers stress and engages candidates, leaving a lasting positive impression of the employer brand as innovative and people-oriented.

Are game-based assessments scientifically reliable for predicting job performance?

Yes, SimuRise-Accelium game-based assessments are rigorously validated. Research by the Adam Milo Institute on Accelium tools found a high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha of 0.89-0.90) and strong positive correlations with traditional applied intelligence and verbal logic tests. This confirms that game-based scores are reliable predictors of cognitive abilities and potential job success.

How can recruitment processes be made more inclusive and free of unconscious bias?

Unconscious biases can critically affect judgment in traditional hiring. Game-based platforms like Accelium minimize this by analyzing objective gameplay data rather than subjective human impressions. Studies on the platform have found no significant performance differences based on gender or age , ensuring a fair comparison for all candidates.

Is game-based assessment suitable for senior leadership roles, or only entry-level positions?

Game-based assessments in SimuRise-Accelium Talent Assessment platform are effective across all job levels. While highly popular for entry-level roles, 50% of companies also use game-based assessments for VP and Executive-level candidates. Research indicates that senior managers actually score significantly higher in complex skills like Logical Thinking and Pattern Recognition compared to junior groups, validating the tool’s ability to identify executive potential.

How can organizations accurately identify high-potential employees (HiPos) for internal mobility?

Identifying future leaders requires mapping higher-order skills that go beyond current job performance. Platforms like Accelium assess critical competencies such as Strategic Thinking, Execution, and Analytical Ability. These insights allow L&D leaders to create data-driven personal development plans and identify employees ready for leadership roles.

What are the most critical skills to assess for a modern, agile workforce?

In today’s fast-changing work environment, the most in-demand skills of an agile workforce are Flexible Thinking, Coping with Changes, and Efficiency. Assessing these competencies is crucial because they determine an employee’s ability to adjust strategies when faced with new challenges and maintain productivity in dynamic industries.

Do older candidates or those without gaming experience struggle with digital assessments?

No, prior gaming experience is not required. The Accelium assessments are self-explanatory and designed to test cognitive skills, not gaming reflexes. Research specifically analyzing age groups found that age does not predict performance on these tests, confirming that older candidates are not discriminated against and perform equally well.

Can assessment tools be customized to match a specific organizational competency framework?

Yes, assessment tools like SimuRise-Accelium Talent Assessment platform can be customized to match a specific organizational competency framework. The Accelium Talent platform allows organizations to build a customized “Assessment Journey” by selecting specific skill tests, such as Decision Making or Resourcefulness, that map directly to their unique competency requirements. This ensures the assessment evaluates the exact behaviors needed for the specific role or department.
