Free resource - Survey helps recruit engaged employees

FindingPotential has launched a free psychometric questionnaire which helps organisations to recruit  candidates who will be highly engaged in their job.

The 10-minute online questionnaire, Engage, creates an instant feedback report, showing the relative importance to the individual of 14 aspects of work that underpin employee engagement and commitment.

"Different people want different things from their work," said Ron Eldridge, Managing Director of FindingPotential. "Some want reward, recognition and career progression, others want independence, personal growth and work-life balance. If you appoint someone who's needs will be met by the reality of the role, they will be more likely to perform at a higher level and less likely to leave."

The questionnaire can be used by organisations at the selection interview stage. Individuals can also use it to better understand their 'personal motivators' and make more informed decisions if they are considering a career move, a promotion or an internal change of role.
