At Accurate Placement, a leading staffing agency in Phoenix, AZ, we understand that finding the right candidate goes beyond a strong resume and a successful interview. While skills and technical knowledge are essential, behavioral and personality testing provide deeper insights into a candidate’s suitability for the position and company culture.
