In our second episode of HR Mind Games, we’re going to focus on the use of cognitive tests as part of the assessment platforms. Does a low-cog score mean someone is stupid? Can a low-cog person be a high performer? How do you coach a low-cog scoring person to be successful in your organization that demands speed?
If you’ve ever run into a cognitive test as part of an employment assessment and said, “****,” this one is for you. Join us on 7/31, and we’ll break down the wide world of cognitive tests in candidate/employee assessments.
