Types of recruitment tests for financial services

You’re facing upheaval in global financial markets, a new world of remote working and accelerated digital transformation. To navigate these challenges, you need to retain top performers and look outside of traditional talent pools to find the right people, but without adding stress and workload.

For infrastructure, technology as well as validity, Thomas has been very good. From our experience, we see that candidates with high scores absorb learning material more easily and have good analytical skills.
