INTRINSIC SKILLS ASSESSMENT
How to use this template:
One of the most effective techniques is to ask behavioral questions. Here is an example of how to evaluate creativity:
“John, tell me about a time when you had to use a novel approach to achieve the desired result?”
Listen carefully to their answers and determine their level of the desired skill. Also, asked for additional
questions to clarify their answer.
John’s answer: “I was trying to win a new client that has never done business with my company. The decision-makers would not meet with me, so I needed a unique way to meet this person. I joined a local organization where I knew this person was an active participant. I spent months attending meetings and eventually had the opportunity to work on a project with this person. Finally, he gave
me a chance to present my company’s offering, and I secured business with his company.”
