The Dilemma Series ™

The Dilemma Series™ provides practitioners with a range of Situational Judgement Tests (SJT’s) for a variety of work contexts. These assessments are well-crafted simulations of realistic contextualised work situations which require candidates to envisage their “best-fit” reaction to the situation in real-time. Being competency-based assessments, the Dilemma Series enables practitioners to observe how potential employees would respond to on-the-job situations, making it a particularly useful tool for aiding hiring decision-making.
