3. The most common definition of an Assessment Center is “A variety of evaluation techniques designed to allow candidates to demonstrate, under standardized conditions, the skills and the capabilities, whether mental, behavioral or technical which are most essential for success in a given position”.
4. The assessment center is constructed in a way that can reflect the core competences and characteristics desired by the organization. As such, it should provide the possibility to observe and assess every participant in relation to those characteristics and competences.
