Engaging for Candidates
The format is more appealing to younger candidates who are more used to this style of interaction.
Message Me is our new gamified psychometric tool that mimics modern style messaging services. Assess your candidates strengths in the format they’re most comfortable with.
What is an instant messaging assessment?
Under the hood, Message Me assessments work similarly to a traditional situational judgement test (SJT).
However unlike traditional SJT’s Message Me assessments take on the form of an instant messaging conversation (like you would see on a messaging platform such as WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger).
The format is more appealing to younger candidates who are more used to this style of interaction.
Instant messaging assessments can help provide more realistic scenarios to respondents for certain roles.
Message Me utilises elements of gamification to create engaging assessments that elicit faster and more accurate responses from candidates.
Assessments are performed in real time, meaning candidates must mimic the fast-paced decision making used in the actual work environment.
Message Me assessments have been created to mimic popular instant messaging services.
In these assessments, candidates will receive a message from a colleague presenting them with a question or scenario. Respondents must then reply by choosing from a selection of different messages.
Message Me assessments help recruiters measure candidate behaviour in relation to the role they’re applying to.
Message Me assessments can provide additional value when combined with a Clevry personality questionnaire.
Recruiters will be able to create a more well rounded picture of their candidates, allowing them to find and hire only the best candidates.
Traditional situational judgement tests are typically designed to give candidates a realistic preview of their future role.
However, for some types of role (e.g. retail customer service), the traditional Situational Judgement Test format (mainly using static text) is not really that realistic to their actual work environment, which can reduce the validity of SJT results for some candidates in certain roles.
