OPP unveils Sirius

Sirius is an innovative solution that helps recruiting managers identify candidates who are the best possible fit for the job, and ensures that a fair and objective recruitment decision is made. It uniquely combines insights from the 16PF personality assessment and Matrigma ability tests to help screen, shortlist, interview and onboard applicants.

Sirius's intuitive interface steps users through the process of defining job competencies and inviting applicants to complete the assessment process, before comparing and presenting candidates ranked according to their suitability for the role.

Sirius has the unique benefit of requiring no prior knowledge or psychometric qualification to use, and is structured around a series of affordable licensing options that start at under £10 per candidate for 30 assessments, and decrease with higher volume. This means that businesses of all sizes can benefit from the invaluable insights that psychometric tools bring to the recruitment process, even when they don't have an HR team.

As of today, it is possible for customers to subscribe to Sirius and start assessing candidates. The system has already been extensively tested by several key customers, including the HR department at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford. Melanie Francis, Head of HR at Saïd, comments:

“Sirius is a great tool for anyone involved in selection. It has enabled me and my team to support our managers in adopting a competency-based selection process, where previously interviews tended to focus on the technical aspects of a role. The ‘Compare candidates’ screen is particularly helpful, and the Interviewer’s Guide gives me the reassurance that our interviews are thorough and fair, by presenting relevant competency-based interview questions. I highly recommend this tool.”
