| | December 2021MANAGEHRMAGAZINE.COM6Pre-employment testing, in some form or another for decades, has been assisting recruiters and human resource personnel in prescreening prospects before the interview process. However, after a prolonged period of relative inactivity, pre-employment testing is transforming. Gamification--a strategy that is presently being integrated into marketing techniques--holds great promise for pre-employment screening and has only gotten more viable as smart devices and cloud computing have become more prevalent. By transforming tests into environments that feel more like "brain games" than HR forms, candidates perform better and provide more data points, providing employers with additional criteria to evaluate objectively. With everybody having access to smartphones, gamification enables more candidates, including those with good credentials but unconventional backgrounds. This may be the most significant development in the human resources business in terms of applicant screening. Integrating gamification into the screening process makes it feasible to pre-identify a candidate from a non-standard pool, allowing companies to hire on talent rather than experience. After all, skills will ultimately prevail. By enabling talent to move laterally across industries, this new era of pre-employment screening may help power inventions that no one could have expected.This edition of Manage HR brings you the story of some of the most promising emerging pre-employment screening companies that deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
