Prevue Assessments

Pros: Setting up the benchmark and sending out the assessments were very easy and smooth. Customer service is also incredible

Cons: Sometimes the results are extensive but I always get help from my account manager where they are able to get on a call with the hiring manager to explain the results

Pros: The prevue assessments give value to our company by listing whether a candidate can be a potential fit for the role. Specifically, I like the questions that can be asked in interviews about potential dealbreakers that Prevue generously gives!

Cons: We have had no real negatives. Our company does believe a potential candidate could be in a bad headspace when doing the assessment, therefore skewing candidates, but this is true of any assessment.

Pros: Easy, understandable way to see how a potential staff member would fit in and how they best work. Excellent tool for appraisals and working out what type of positive reinforcement works best for each person

Cons: There is nothing I don't like. The reports are great and the support is excellent. There are so many tools available to suit any aspect of your business you want to work on with your staff.

Pros: Very thorough information that helps we prepare interview questions. 9 times out of 10, when I share (segments) of their results, candidates comment that the assessment is "spot on." Also - Prevue assigns a representative who is happy to assist with questions/needs. So many vendors these days expect you to email their Customer Support so I appreciate the personal touch, even though I am often too busy to meet with him! But he offers!

Cons: Occasionally, one segment will contradict another; however the suggested questions help to dig further.

Pros: I really like that it's easy to use, with an ideal testing time for candidates (at least for the motivation and personality tests), and that it facilitates visual interpretation of the assessment results. It also offers the option to download results in Spanish, English, and Portuguese. The results are always constructive and avoid negative judgments toward candidates.

Cons: Perhaps due to limited customization, there is a lack of flexibility to adapt assessments to specific needs, such as changing fields in forms or adjusting the duration of access links.

Pros: Great value for money compared to the competitors in the space. The assessments are very customizable to ensure that the benchmarks set for roles are aligned to the needs of the organization. Prevue assessments provide valuable insight during the candidate interview process which can then be utilized to best support the candidate as an employee within the organization.

Cons: I would be great for the platform to integrate with our HRIS system to further streamline our process.

Pros: I love how it breaks down candidate results, especially for hiring purposes. I share candidate results with hiring managers and they utilize the questions and insights that Prevue shares with them based on how the candidate responded.

Cons: Only thing I have run into a few times is interruptions. More than a handful of candidates have sent me screenshots of their computer screen showing that the assessment crashed midway through and I have to go in and reset it. Unsure why this has been happening, but it is very easy to reset.

Pros: Ease of use. Fast reports and flexible assessments. The information in the reports is valuable to us.

Cons: PPAYG pricing is quite premium for a smaller business.

Pros: Taking a deeper dive into peoples' abilities.

Cons: Assessments giving error messages, or stopping on people while they are trying to complete. They then have to contact us and we have to reboot or reset the assessment.

Pros: Assessments were easy to follow and complete. Assessments provide rounded information related to both internal staff and for external hiring. Provides confidence to our clients, that we're seeking the 'right fit' for roles.

Cons: Time restrictions, they're not a quick assessment (if you're to do them properly and not be rushed).

Pros: They are very customizable, and the benchmarks are created to fit our organization's needs.

Cons: The cost. While it is cheaper than some assessments, there is still a cost commitment to using Prevue.

Pros: Having the option to use assessment and include them in the recruitment process is amazing. I love having that option and allowing the Hiring Manager the opportunity to use it.

Cons: I don't know how accurate they are. With these types of test, some candidates can outsmart the test and you still don't get a true picture of the candidate. There is no solution as this is the issue with all testing tools.

Pros: It is well laid out and easy to customize. I really appreciate the Abilities section.

Cons: I often share the link with another person to send to applicants and sometimes I cannot find the link or make it accessible to pass on.

Pros: I love that Prevue Assessments not only test a candidate's ability/personality, but also helps us weed out candidates that may not be serious about the position. We've sent the assessment to countless candidates who then never complete the assessment, weeding out those who may not be serious about the position. It's given us a benchmark for hiring and has helped us save time by not interviewing applicants who might not be a good fit.

Cons: I don't feel like Prevue is easy to navigate from the admin side, until you've had someone walk you through how to use it. It's not intuitive without further explanation.

Pros: I love the Prevue assessments because they are incredibly easy to complete, yet they provide deep insights into an individual's strengths and weaknesses. The results offer a comprehensive breakdown, making it simple to understand key traits and areas for development. I also appreciate the variety of detailed reports available, which allow for a well-rounded view of each person who takes the assessment. The accuracy of the results is impressive, offering valuable information that can be used for hiring, team building, and personal growth. It’s amazing how one simple test can reveal so much about a person’s skills, personality, and work style!

Cons: Sometimes, the results may seem overly positive, but shifting your perspective helps you better understand the insights they provide.

Pros: Wide range of reporting capabilities from hire to team dynamic reporting.

Cons: The wide range of reporting can also lead to confusion as to which report you want.

Pros: Results are easy to understand and always have a full description

Cons: No negatives that I can think of. Very happy with the service.

Pros: Customizability, and the various types of reports you can pull. We also love that it uses the Big 5 which is the only psychometric testing that is reliable over time.

Cons: Sometimes the interface has a longer learning curve for new team members, but they get there

Pros: We selected Prevue because of the level of customization and the individualized support. You can really cater the assessments to what your organization is looking for at the role level and we sincerely appreciate how they walk you through that.

Cons: Our contract does not include Skills Assessments, which would have been nice to be thrown in but not a deal breaker!

Pros: Sending out assessments to potential candidates has been a huge help when it comes to evaluating a candidate. The benchmark feature easily allows us to determine if a candidate has the correct skill set for a specific position before making a hiring decision.

Cons: There not much to say here. Prevue is super simple to use and has proven to be very beneficial for our team.

Pros: The ease of use, straight forward programming, and fitting, detailed reports.

Cons: Mainly the cost, plan options are limited. Since we are such a small group it would be cost effective for us to limit certain features available on Prevue in order to reduce annual cost.

Pros: Prevue makes vetting candidates very simple. Their software drills into the candidates in ways regular interview questions cannot. The assessments also provide excellent questions for subsequent interviews.

Cons: I have not used the employee features to gain insight into employee wellbeing and fit, but I would like to.
