As psychological assessment processes are expensive, labour intensive, and time-consuming, assessing candidates who do not have the minimum capabilities to meet the job requirements reduces the efficiency and/or cost effectiveness of the assessment process. The Quick Check Test (QCT) allows large numbers of prospective employees to be assessed quickly and inexpensively. The QCT measures a participant’s detail orientation by assessing their checking accuracy on pairs of words, numbers, and a combination of both words and numbers. An accurate detail checking ability is important for jobs that require individuals to have a high level of detail orientation. Candidates who do not meet the minimum requirements are not considered good prospects and can be screened out at an early stage in the process.
