Here for the teams making the tough decisions
We work with people teams who are hiring, promoting and developing people. We know that you're accountable for how those calls turn out; and whether that team is eighty people or eight thousand, the decisions carry the same weight. Make better calls with stronger insights than a hunch and a good interview.
For growing businesses
You're the hiring team, the HR team and probably payroll. Our tools are written for you and your stakeholders, rather than for a psychologist to decipher, so you can read one, act on it and get on with the other nine things on your list.
For mid-market and enterprise
One platform your hiring managers will actually use, your IT team will approve and your CFO will fund. From first hire to succession, in every region you're in, with one consistent read on every person.
Trusted where getting it wrong is expensive
Some of our clients hire for airports and energy plants, where a wrong call is a safety incident. Others develop thousands of people a year, where getting an ROI is critical. What do they have in common? A bad talent decision costs them astronomically more than the assessment ever will.
Global reach
Thanks to our extensive network of expert partners, we deliver world-class assessment solutions on a truly global scale.
This means businesses across different regions and industries can access local expertise while benefiting from the same rigorous, science-backed approach that defines Saville Assessment.
You have the clients, we have the assessments and insights
For recruiters and search. Your client is paying you to find the right people. We help you do it faster and validate your recommendation: screening that handles the volume at the top of the funnel, depth on the shortlist you put forward, and science that takes the risk of a mishire down to as low as 1 in 50.
Back your shortlist with evidence
Consultancies and advisory. Your expertise is the product you sell. We make it richer and add a string to your bow you don't have to build: assessments inside the service you already offer, reports that can feel like yours, and Managed Services and consultants to lean on when a project outgrows your team.
Add another string to your bow
Regional partners. Power your business with science and platform that's ready to sell, enablement that makes your team credible in front of a client, and the choice of working under our brand or your own. You take the science into markets and relationships you own.
Sell Saville in your market
Tech partners. License the science behind our model to fuel your product, or ship assessment inside your tech through our API. Validity is the part that's hardest to build and easiest to get wrong, so why not use ours?
Build it into your product
Integration partners. Whether you're an ATS or an HRIS, your customers are already asking who to trust for assessment. Be the platform with the answer, and the best insights on the market behind it. We build and support the connector; you list it where they're looking.

What it's like to work with us

Lower screening costs
“We now have a more robust, fairer hiring process, protecting our managers and evidencing our hiring decisions with a clear criteria for selection”
Easy to choose, buy and use.
Sophisticated underneath, simple on top. Built for the person using it day to day, not just the expert who signed the contract.
Proven return.
People are the biggest line in most organizations' budgets and the least evidenced. We put a value on making better decisions that your CFO will understand.
The full talent lifecycle.
Screening, hiring, development and mobility on one platform, so a read taken at interview still adds value when that person is up for promotion three years later.
