Second opinion, etc.

Let us assess candidates you've found yourself. Ask us about interview technique training. Invite us to coach talents stepping into their first leadership role. Or let us analyse and develop your team.

Which candidates get stuck in the details? Who becomes arrogant under pressure? A`HEAD provides the answers you need.

Second opinion

The clock is ticking — you need to decide.
But who are the candidates, really?
What lies beneath the surface?
What drives them?
How do they handle stress?
What kind of personality are you bringing on board?

The final assessment begins with A`HEAD mapping the candidate’s personality, motivations/interests, and potential derailers — the darker sides that may emerge under stress.

Next, our consultant conducts an in-depth, one-on-one interview. We also cover motivation, terms, and salary expectations. If desired, we collect references.

Finally, we hold a focused and insightful meeting where the consultant presents the findings. You get the clarity you need to make the right decision.

We are experienced users of personality tests and have deep knowledge of motives and behavior. Make use of us for more than just recruitment.

We understand people

Need a little help? Ask us for advice!

Our in-depth knowledge of people and personality can be valuable in many areas:

- Conflict management: Get help resolving entrenched workplace conflicts.

- Team analysis and development: Psychological safety and performance improve when team members get to know each other better. We use tools like the Hogan Team Report and The Rocket Model.

- International cultural differences: We give talks on why cultural differences arise and why Norwegians are so unique. Employees relocating to Norway receive guidance on Norwegian culture and leadership norms. This is especially important for those who will be leading Norwegians.

- Interview techniques: Teach your staff how to ask the right questions—in the right way.

- Career counseling: Get advice on how to write a compelling CV and cover letter, and how to effectively use your network when searching for a new job.

We use tests from Hogan Assessments. They are accurate and reliable.

Psychometric tests

We use tests from Hogan Assesments.

The tests we always use are:
‍
HPI - Hogan Personality Inventory, a personality test based on the Five-Factor Model (Big Five).

HDS - Hogan Development Survey, assessment of changes in behaviour under stress or boredom.

MVPI - Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory, the candidate's interests and values (motivators).

If requested, it is possible to supplement the analysis using additional tests:

Hogan Judgment - how you make decisions and how you deal with your own mistakes.

Hogan Business Reasoning Inventory - how one processes verbal and numerical information in a business context.

Raven's APM-III - Cognitive ability (IQ)
