and make the booking
2. Make the booking without providing your
opinion
3. Offer a couple of alternatives, explaining that
they are probably better.
4. Share your opinion and say that several guests
have been disappointed with the restaurant.
5. Pretend the restaurant is fully booked and offer
to find an alternative.

Designing an Assessment
Strategy
 Identify (and prioritize) job-relevant
competencies; for selection – position
analysis and validation of competencies
 For selection – If possible, validate using
criterion-related study
 Design an assessment strategy – what tools
and methods?

Best Practice:
Use Multiple Methods
Using multiple methods (more than one assessment,
data from multiple sources) produces more valid and
reliable data.

21
Best Practice: Pay attention to
Reliability and Validity of tools
 Reliability: the extent to which an
assessment tool is consistent or free from
random error in measurement
 Validity: the extent to which an assessment
tool measures what it is intended to measure
 Predictive Validity: the extent to which an
assessment tool predicts performance in the
workplace
Reliability is necessary but does not ensure
validity.
