to demonstrate their knowledge and competence related to these jobs through structured interviews. Assessors will receive training regarding the assessment process which includes how to complete scoring of the candidates.
The success of our process hinges on our ability to recruit highly competent individuals to assist in this assessment. Although we are
unable to provide a stipend to the assessors that we recruit to assist in this process, the assessment does provide a number of other benefits to individuals who graciously agree to volunteer such as:
