The puzzle of an Assessment Center

Maybe you are unsure about the What and How to prepare, the pitfalls to avoid, the good tips to know...


You hesitate as towhat will be expected of you in terms of high level multidisciplinary programmatic knowledge, attitudes, interpersonal skills.


You find it difficult to prioritize fundamental reading, between knowledge around programs, SDGs, security, media or humanitarian emergencies. Especially since to this is added the weight of your daily load at work and at home..


❌ You might have failed your previous Assessment Center (DRR or RR) and are worried about making the same mistakes again. Especially since the comments in the final report are sometimes surprising as they may not look like what you think you demonstrate on a daily basis!


Not to mention the stress... in high doses, you could "lose it" and give too much space to some of your shortcomings: the assessor's techniques reveal everything: you won't be able to hide!



Perhaps you have considered the following?


Looking for advice from knowledgeable people? It's very nice from them, but not very effective: cycling cannot be learned with good advice.


Some dream they will be able to pretend they keep calm and thwart the eyes of the assessors. It would be risky: it is precisely their job to see everything.


During the preparations, some are worried about having read everything that comes to hand around programs, operations, policies... But they would arrive with a cluttered tired mind when having to restore the information.


Perhaps you hope that with good control and mastery of your emotions, you will only show your good side? Except that putting yourself in a state of stress precisely aims at thwarting your protections: volume of information to be processed, pace of the exercises, uncertainty about expectations, unforeseen events and repeated surprises, conflict situations, obligation to make decisions without having had the time to understand it all...


Our approach to good preparation?

Use your daily professional and personal life as the best practice ground for the Assessment Center

An Assessment Center requires thorough and effective preparation. It must be integrated into your already very busy professional and personal daily life. Just like a great athlete before a competition, you can manage your preparation aloone. But you significantly increase your chances with a coach who knows the challenges well.

I have accompanied senior United Nations officials to Assessment Centers: 54 people since 2014: DRR, RR and especially RC Assessment Centers. They all arrived more or less with the same difficulties:
- They were often surprised to be notified at the last minute about their selection and the dates of their Assessment Center.
- They arrived already challenged by their busy professional life.
- They hated having so little time to devote to the preparation.
- They were afraid to not well understand the challenges of the assessment if it is not hearsay.


We were going to have to develop the strategy aspects of context analysis, prioritization, negotiation techniques, systematize the strategic thinking approaches, sharpen mental calm, and address physical preparation in order to be able to easily cope with the whole 3 days assessment!


It seemed to them a random mission.
I therefore adopted a coaching approach: the daily professional and personal lives were going to be our ally, not our oponent.


Little by little, year after year, through repetition, efforts, understanding of Assessment Centers, I developed:
- A general preparation process that clarifies and soothes the period of training
- An increasingly sharp understanding of Assessment Centers.
- Various case-studies allowing you to review all the skills to be reinforced and avoid surprises
- Simple and effective tools on which to base the exercises
- A principle of daily practice in situ (work or home) to increase comfort with what is expected in an Assessment Center.


The candidate is therefore reassured, from the first day, by the overall form of support.


As a result, when a candidate arrives at the Assessment Center, s/he does not show that he can hold a position: s/he embodies the competencies and the posture of an RC, an RR or a DRR.


- By dint of repetition, I created a method -
