Talent Q Dimensions and Elements

Talent Q Dimensions is a new addition to KSL's portfolio of psychometric tests and assessment systems. It's an innovative personality questionnaire which can be used from senior management roles to managerial, professional, graduate and supervisory levels across all industry sectors and job functions.

Inspired by Roger Holdsworth, a well known and respected expert in psychometric testing, Talent Q Dimensions can be used in a standalone manner or as part of a wider Talent Q assessment programme which includes Verbal, Numerical and Logical Reasoning Tests - Talent Q Elements. Results are compared to those from over 9000 candidates who have already completed Dimensions.

The following psychometric reports are available:

Talent Q Report Types

Trait Profile

Useful in both recruitment and development contexts, it measures 15 dimensions designed to reflect 15 common competencies used within many organisations.

Narrative Report

Describes the respondent's typical behavioural styles at work - usually read by the commissioning client.

Team Profile
