In this episode of the Recruitment Leadership Podcast, Alison talks to Nemo D'Qrill and Alex Chikhani from Sigma Polaris, who shed light on why using psychometric assessment is a powerful tool that can help fulfil your client's needs in a highly effective yet timely way.

Covering the common questions and scepticism around psychometric testing Alex and Nemo provide real case studies and examples of where psychometric testing has radically changed the outcomes of a recruitment process.

While it is dramatic to say that psychometric testing saves lives (although it can!), there are many practical ways that psychometric testing adds value to clients and candidates, while helping you secure more placements.

• Why COVID-19 has accelerated the need for psychometric testing
