Do you consider Critical Thinking as a factor when hiring candidates?
For nearly a century, the Watson-Glaser™ Critical Thinking Appraisal has been helping companies make data-driven decisions on staffing and development, and is now the leading critical thinking test available.

Many organizations, colleges and schools use this tool to hire great managers, develop high-potential employees, and admit students into challenging programs.
