JOB ANALYSIS
The purpose of the job analysis process is to identify and document important work activities and behaviors performed on the job as well as the specific competencies or knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics (KSAOs) necessary to perform these activities. Job analysis serves as an important foundation for recommending appropriate pre employment test assessments and providing evidence of job-relatedness in the event of a legal challenge.

PreVisor’s confirmatory job analysis approach is designed to efficiently confirm and document the appropriate assessments for a particular job. This approach allows our clients to leverage the extensive employment test validity research already conducted on PreVisor assessments, and provides an expedient alternative to more extensive job analysis approaches. More extensive job analysis and competency modeling approaches are available, and are recommended in certain situations where custom deliverables or comprehensive system design are required.

PREVISOR’S ADVISE METHODOLOGY
When designing an assessment solution or broader employee selection system, PreVisor believes the focus must remain on improving the workforce with effective assessment tools while assuring an efficient, technology-enabled recruitment and selection process. To achieve these objectives PreVisor utilizes a proprietary project management methodology called AdVise. This repeatable and methodical approach drives consistency in delivery and approach and improves the quality of our deliverables:

Learn
Gain a thorough understanding of clients’ existing needs and challenges to ensure full alignment with business objectives; collect information including job descriptions, survey data and key metrics for success.

Analyze
Conduct job analysis; recommend an appropriate assessment solution and process design; determine assessment and system configurations.

Design
Design custom assessment or interview content as required; setup and configure the client’s assessment site, and test for quality assurance.

Deliver
Review solutions and train end-users to ensure full readiness prior to rollout; integrate with existing client technology systems (e.g., applicant tracking systems) as needed; deploy the final assessment solution.

Evaluate
Utilize the assessment solution within the selection process; monitor usage, pass rates and feedback from internal users.

Refine
