Psychometrical Testing
My mission was to choose which character would best match me as I viewed the Dasnish Orchestra performance. The individual sitting next to me was made to evaluate me once my self evaluation was done. After talking with the individual sitting next to me, the choice was made to become a conductor or whistler.
Why psychometrical testing is important?
The job market is extremely competitive, which can make the recruitment process difficult for employers. Hiring someone who appears to be a safe bet but struggles to fit in or, worse, disrupts the team can be an expensive and time-consuming mistake that employers must avoid (Melissa Turner, picked, 22 July 2021).
Recruiters can use psychometric testing to further assess each candidate and get a clear picture of how they might perform and behave in the workplace to take the selection process to the next level (Melissa Turner, picked, 22 July 2021).
Teamwork
Our group project was to create a flipbook of caterpillar eating something. My additional idea was to allow the caterpillar to eat pineapple. However, it was altered by making the caterpillar building a scooper from large bricks.
My caterpillar fipbook will follow the caterpillar as it discovers the Lego bricks hidden beneath the leaf and constructs the scooter. Lego bricks were chosen as the caterpillar is really small. This concept came from my childhood memories of building a scooter out of large bricks. When I was a kid, I used to ride my homemade scooter across the room and was amazed that it didn’t break. As the caterpillar scooters, it approaches and circles the pineapple. When the caterpillar reaches the top of the pineapple, it begins to move between the leaves.
