Seeking Recommendations: Best Psychometric Tests for Hiring and Their Effectiveness?

Hi, I am a management student currently in my 4th semester. I am working on a project where I need to find information on what psychometric tests are being used in companies for "hiring" and how effective they are as a tool in hiring. In the initial stage of my project, I need to go through secondary data on this subject. I want to know if anybody can suggest some reading material, books, magazines, or journals that are relevant to this subject.

I also need to know which psychometric test is widely used for hiring. There are many options, but I have to limit my project to only one or two tests, so I need to select the best one.

Hi Raj,

Your information is really helpful. I'm looking forward to getting more information. My email id is [Login to view]. Please do forward the material that you have.

Another thing I wanted to know was, which psychometric tests are widely used for hiring? Is it MBTI, or PF16, or FIRO-B, etc.?

Hi Minu,

Download the file "Recruitment_selection.zip" posted by a user called HR Prop under a post titled: [E-books on Recruitment](https://www.citehr.com/110379-e-books-recruitment.html).

This zip file contains one PDF with excellent information on Psychometric testing used in selections. You will find it useful for your project work.

Let me know your views.

Cheers
