HR Glossary
What is Assessment Centre?
A structured evaluation method using multiple exercises, simulations, and assessors to measure candidates' competencies for a specific role.
Why it matters in hiring
Assessment Centre comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
