How well can your candidates see the big picture, analyze alternatives, and turn them into strategic actions that impact a company's long-term success?

The Hirenest Strategic Decision-Making Skills Test uses everyday workplace scenarios to evaluate a candidate's responses. The test features 20 engaging hypothetical scenarios designed to assess a candidate's ability to see the broad picture, find long-term challenges and opportunities, and turn them into actionable decisions that will influence the organization's long-term success. By presenting candidates with these scenarios, the test aims to assess their potential effectiveness in real-world work situations and understand their potential to be effective in roles that require strategic decision-making.

Strategic Decision-Making Skills Test

Effective strategic decision-making is an essential skill for leaders who are responsible for setting the direction and making key decisions for an organization. When making effective strategic decisions, leaders and managers constantly analyze the bigger picture in order to accurately chart the course of their organization, all while giving direction and consistency. They are more likely to align short-term objectives with long-term goals, increase operational efficiency, formulate strategies to overcome crises, and guide people so that the business can better achieve the desired competitive advantage for success in its niche.
