Accurate Predictor of Job Success

Cognitive aptitude assessments like the CMRA have been proven time and again to be one of the most accurate predictors of future job success: twice as accurate as interviews, three times as accurate as experience and four times more accurate than education. Adding the CMRA to a well-rounded recruitment process will give you the full picture on your next hire.

Mitigate Bias

Validated to reduce gender bias

The CMRA has been rigorously validated, giving you confidence that the test is highly predictive of job performance in any role requiring the operation, maintenance and repair of equipment or machinery. In addition, particular attention was given to reducing adverse impact along gender lines. Reading level for the CMRA is estimated to be at upper primary school level, and the content is designed to minimise gender and racial/ethnic bias. The CMRA has demonstrably less adverse impact than other tests of mechanical aptitude.
