Essex Partners - Exclusive Assessment Program

Essex Partners’ offers an exclusive assessment program — customized for each individual — that enables clients to view themselves through a variety of “lenses” and to build a clearer image of their strengths, leadership styles and personal objectives.

Meet with a Consultant
The assessment begins with a series of one-on-one sessions between the client and the senior consultant who will guide the entire process. Together, they determine the client’s learning style and set the overall program goals.

Self-Assessment
Working with the senior consultant, the client completes exercises that stimulate self-reflection and encourage thinking about interests, values, skills and experiences. The process enables the client to step back and create a vision for his or her career transition.

Career Psychologist
In one or two sessions, a career psychologist gets to know the client and offers objective insights into his or her career plan. The psychologist also meets with the senior consultant to get a broader perspective of the client's situation.

Assessment Tests
The senior consultant, psychologist and client select a customized battery of tests from among the hundreds available. Tests can offer broad insights into work styles and strengths, or can help evaluate a client's aptitude for a particular career path.

360° Feedback
The client identifies personal and professional associates who can provide objective appraisals of his or her strengths. Individuals may be interviewed by the senior consultant or the client, in person, by telephone or in writing.

The five lenses in Essex Partners’ comprehensive assessment process work together to create a true picture of the client’s strengths and aptitudes. With the personal support of the senior consultant, the client emerges with a decisive, focused career plan.

By working collaboratively with your Essex consultant and business psychologist, this assessment process can lead you to a focused career plan. When appropriate, we encourage you to include others in the process, including your spouse, family members and colleagues.
