A note from our practice

Hiring is the most consequential decision a leader makes — and the one most often made on instinct. Twenty-five years of psychometric work has taught us a quieter path: measure first, then decide.

No. 02The arithmetic

The wrong hire is rarely a single line item.

The real number stacks up faster than most organizations expect. Below: ranges drawn from Gallup, SHRM, and the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs report. Calibrated for mid-level roles in MENA markets.

Headline costI.
50–200%

of the role's annual salary (Gallup).

Per postingII.
$100–500

per job posting.

Agency feesIII.
10–15%

recruitment agency fees.

Hidden

+ severance, IT, onboarding, leadership time.

Sum it up — and most organizations are losing six figures a year.

No. 03The fix

What interviews can't see, measurement can.

We help you objectively and fairly measure what interviews can't: Three dimensions, each calibrated to MENA workforce norms.

I.

Dimension

Personality traits

How someone thinks and relates to the people around them.

II.

Dimension

Mental abilities

Problem-solving, reasoning, and learning capacity.

III.

Dimension

Behavioral style

How they act under real work conditions, not interview conditions.

Together, these provide a clear picture of how well a person truly fits the role — before you make the offer.
