Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Group exercises provide an opportunity for candidates to demonstrate competencies such as influence and persuasion, communication and teamwork along with a number of other core skills required in the real world but just how effective are they? and how easy is it for one candidate to derail the whole group?
Whilst there have been a number of investigations into exercise versus dimension variance in Assessment Centres, this paper summarises research of group scores gathered over 18 months to identify if competency scores most
strongly correlate with those attained in other exercises or those of fellow candidates in the group.
