As part of the recruitment of its Top Managers, CARGLASS® has asked APOSTROF to build a new assessment platform by putting them into professional situations. The aim is to develop role-playing exercises that partly recreate the reality of the group’s business sector, as well as the challenges of each team manager.

Construction of a tailor-made evaluation session

« Regular exchanges with Virginie Graziani enabled us to develop our specifications and monitor the progress of the construction of the various exercises. Our feedback is very positive. It was a very good exercise that allowed us to find our rare pearl, taking into account the elements of our sector of activity, our context and our company culture.

The process was also extremely formative for me, as I accompanied the creation of this evaluation platform dedicated to our company. We had slightly underestimated the timing of the evaluation session, as the calibration in a corporate context was slightly different for us.»

Virginie BOURHIS, HR Development and Recruitment Manager of CARGLASS®.

About the Assessment Center

The Assessment Center evaluation is based on putting a candidate or an employee in a professional situation with a view to selection or an ambition to develop skills and potential. As the 1st individual diagnostic tool for potential, the Assessment Center approach can double your chances of success in recruitment.

In the context of recruitment, this stage enables the company to advise on an integration plan that is appropriate to the individual’s personality and skills. Also, having a global vision of talent is essential to prepare a new organisation within a company. In the case of internal mobility, the assessment includes specific recommendations on a development plan.
