I just returned from our profession’s annual conference, the Society for Industrial/Organization Psychology (SIOP) in Chicago. My colleagues and I presented research and attended a variety of sessions around selection and assessment topics. While there are many topics I could discuss, one theme seemed to appear over and over again– Technology.

When I first started at Select 11 years ago, we were concerned about the availability of computers at a client facility and candidates’ ability to use a mouse and navigate through the assessment. Now, we are concerned about making sure we can deliver our assessments on all of the devices available to candidates. The presentations this year really made me reflect back on how far we have come and how technology is changing selection moving forward.
