# **Evaluation & Assessment: make decisions based on facts, not impressions.**
**Evaluation sessions, PAPI and DISC certified tests, tailor-made competency frameworks: over 20 years of experience to secure your decisions: recruitment, promotion, mobility, reorganisation.**

## **Your heaviest decisions are often made using the least reliable tool: impressions**
Recruiting, promoting, repositioning: these decisions involve careers, teams, and budgets. And yet, they all too often rely on a CV, which tells the past, and an interview, which favours comfortable candidates, not necessarily the right ones.

**Strategic recruitment**
### **This recruitment is too important to be left to intuition**
**Mobility & promotion**
### **Who internally is truly ready to progress? **
**Fairness & common language**
### **Each manager operates in their own way**
**Transformation & merger**
### **We are merging, who knows how to do what? **
## **Three tools, one principle: to objectify.**
### **Assessment sessions**
Role-plays, structured interviews, exercises calibrated to the actual job: a session reveals what the candidate or employee can do, not just what they can say. Complete with a report to guide your decision.
### **Certified PAPI & DISC tests**
Professional personality, core motivations, behavioural style: two recognized tests with scientifically validated methodologies to go beyond the CV and the interview. Always followed by a debrief, never a raw score delivered without explanation.
### **Tailor-made competency frameworks**
The common framework for your professions: key skills, mastery levels, observable indicators. Co-designed with your teams and integrated into your tools, it becomes the foundation of your recruitment, mobility, training, and annual reviews.
[**PAPI: motivations and work style**

[**DISC: observable behaviour**
A short test (10 to 15 minutes) that identifies behavioural style across four dimensions: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, Conscientiousness, along with strengths and areas for development. Followed by a personalised debrief. Invaluable for adapting management styles and anticipating team dynamics.**Contact us **](https://www.actualgroup.com/en/entreprises/contact)
### **Field interviews**
We start with the people who do the jobs: in-depth interviews to identify the real skills and behaviours that drive performance.
### **Co-design workshops**
Management, HR, and managers build the framework together, taking ownership of it as they build it. An imposed framework is an ignored framework.
### **Implementation**
Integration into your HR practices: recruitment, mobility, training, interviews, and your existing tools (HRIS, ATS, LMS). Then, adjustments over time to keep it alive.
**FAQ**
## **The questions you are asking yourself. And our honest answers.**
[**Contact us **](https://www.actualgroup.com/en/entreprises/contact)
Scepticism is healthy. The market is full of gimmicky tests. Ours are certified, scientifically validated, and regularly updated. And above all: never a raw score without a debrief. A systematic one-hour discussion compares the results with the reality of the job. The tool sheds light, the human interprets, you decide.
An experience that is more respectful than a traditional interview, not less: clear instructions, a transparent framework, strict GDPR compliance, and structured feedback on their strengths and areas for development. Even if they aren't selected, they leave with something. Your employer brand is at stake here, too.
No: it is integrated into the process at the shortlist stage, with results delivered within 72 hours. What it adds in three days, it wins back in years. The years of a hire that lasts.
## Fewer mistakes. More fairness. A common language.
### **You make far fewer mistakes**
5% turnover among candidates recruited through assessment: the figure says it all. Objective assessment reduces risk where it costs the most.
### **Your decisions become fair and defensible**
The same criteria for everyone: recruitment, promotions, and salaries are based on an objective and transparent foundation. Trust follows.
### **The entire company speaks the same language.**
The framework aligns HR, managers, and employees on what matters: everyone knows what is expected and how to progress.
## **Does your challenge go beyond assessment?**
Assessment for manager recruitment: that is executive recruitment. Frameworks for forward-looking skills management: that is HR strategy & transformation.

## Intuition is a quality, not a method
**When making career decisions, we prefer proof**
Behind every assessment, there is a person whose trajectory is going to change: a candidate, an employee, a future manager. Objectivity is not just about performance: it is a matter of justice. Assessing based on facts means protecting people from biases and impressions just as much as protecting the company from mistakes. We care about both.
