Getfeedback January 2015 Newsletter

Welcome to the Getfeedback regular update,

December proved to be a busy time for the team at Getfeedback supporting our clients planning their development interventions and recruitment strategies for 2015.

Our technical team were particularly busy with a considerable number of new systems integrations - helping our clients have slick, seamless and easy to administer access to the Getfeedback range of testing - alongside bringing online an interesting selection of bespoke questionnaires and tools.

If you are still at the stage of planning your activity for 2015 or if you are an existing client we can support further please feel free get in touch with me or another member of the Getfeedback team.

Unbiased Non-verbal reasoning assessment - Raven's APM & SPM

In today's multicultural society, fairly assessing ability for candidates whose first language is not English or whose background may make some assessments biased can be challenging. Using a non-verbal assessment of reasoning allows for a level playing field.

The Raven's tests assesses an individual's abstract reasoning ability through a series of matrices in which the individual is required to select the correct image to complete a pattern. The non-verbal nature of the test means that it is a good indicator of general intelligence whilst minimising the impact of language or culture.

Getfeedback Winter Sports

Getfeedback will soon be hitting the slopes for a team building ski trip to France and in preparation enjoyed a training session at Skiplex in Woodley as part of our Christmas party.

Skiplex provided us with great teachers, put on a really fun session for us all and it was a great way to get ready for our trip and bond as a team.

Happy New Year!

Finally, the team at Getfeedback would like to wish you and your families a happy and prosperous 2015. We would like to thank you for your support in 2014 and we look forward to working with you again this year.
