One of the core components of any job success are the level of cognitive abilities required to handle the responsibilities, problems faced, planning requirements, and handling novel situations and job challenges. These abilities are good predictors of future potential. We utilize the best commercially available tools for assessing cognitive abilities. Examples include:
- The Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal measures an individual’s critical thinking skills. This widely-used and well-validated assessment tool determines one’s ability to analyze and solve complex problems, create strategic plans, adapt to novel situations, and handle increased responsibilities.
