5.

9. A select group of skills that statistically differentiates top and bottom performers for a specific position The Chally assessment compares an individual against one of Chally’s validated profiles (or a customized profile created for a client) and measures whether the individual is predicted to be successful in a specific role based on their scores on job skills that research has shown are critical for success in that role It’s not about finding “superstars,” it’s about NOT hiring “mismatches”

10. Follow-up research on major Chally assessment users finds that: 85-90% of candidates “Recommended” perform well 75-80% of candidates “Not Recommended” do not succeed on the job How does Chally know that the skills within a profile are predictive?

20. Because the assessment is only one part of your selection decision, it is not recommended that results be shared with candidates Common mistakes: Manager mentions that the candidate “failed that test” Candidate is told they weren’t recommended without providing any context Candidate given a copy of the report with no explanation of results! Chally recommends that results be shared with new hires as part of their on-boarding and development process The typical successful person has some very strong features and, therefore, by necessity, will have some equal and opposite weak features. The information gained can be used to highlight areas where coaching and training can help the individual be more successful.
