Identifying the right person for key-roles is crucial for the long-term health and growth of any organization. Beyond assessing behavioral competences, we dive deep into the candidate’s underlying motivators and behavior.
To make the hire or promotion a success, our clients are provided with the understanding and insights needed to successfully integrate and support the candidate in the long run.
Great for the organization, and great for the people too.
Key-role Assessments
What if there was a way to understand, predict and positively influence the behavior of the person you’re about to hire or promote?
Simply put: The goal of a key-role assessment is to make sure that the right person ends up in the right position. But experience has taught us that evaluating someone’s credentials and having a fairly good idea of how they behave, has little to do with the long-term success of the hire or promotion.
That’s because people aren’t linear, or even particularly rational. They react in unexpected ways and have all kinds of motivators that prevent them from showing up the way you expect them to.
For us, an assessment is not just about knowing what the candidate is capable of now, but predicting how they will fit into your culture, in the team, in the specific role. That’s why we don’t just want to get to know the candidate, but we want to get to know you first: what makes you and your company unique, what are the success factors, the company culture (the real one on the floor), so we know exactly what you need.
That’s why our key-role assessments go (way) further than a yes/no answer. Beyond assessing the fit of the candidate with the job profile, we provide what’s needed to integrate them in a new role, or develop them to a next level.
With more than 2500 assessments under our belt, we know how to make sure that your next hire or promotion is a slam dunk.

How we do it differently
THE SIGNUM APPROACHWe take pride in getting to know our clients inside and out: their culture, challenges, goals, and team dynamics. Whether we step in for consultancy or a key-role assessment, this understanding forms the foundation of our collaboration.
Our assessments have been game-changers for many of our clients. Beyond assessing qualifications, we provide a “mini manual” with all the insights needed to help integrate and retain candidates for long-term success, giving them — and the organization — the best chance at thriving.
Having done this for over two decades, we understand the complexity of matching individuals to an organization. Promoting and hiring the right people often keeps leaders up at night, but our experience makes us a trusted partner that can help get it right the first time around.
