Assessio exists because humans cannot make completely objective decisions – in recruitment processes, we can be our own worst enemy. 

Today, your chances of getting a job are higher if you are European, tall, look healthy and do not have children. We want to change that. 

Assessio is a SaaS company specialising in strategic HR and developing tests and tools in occupational psychology. Our tools can help organisations predict who has the best potential to succeed in a role, find future leaders within the organisation, identify toxic behaviours in leadership, and match candidates to the organisational culture through values. 

We provide our customers with data-driven insights about both current and potential employees. By making decisions based on reliable data rather than gut feeling, we can discover the potential that exists and ensure that no talent goes to waste.

**The recruitment trade-offs: how to balance prediction, fairness, cost, and experience** HR Tech Summit 2026 | 22 min

Every recruitment process involves trade-offs. The goal isn't to eliminate them — it's to make them consciously. In this fireside chat, Director of Psychometrics, Helene Hoppe Revald, and Lead Consultant, Iben Mollerup Skov, walk through what research actually tells us about what makes a selection process predictive, fair, and worth a candidate's time. They open with a scenario many HR teams will recognise: a well-designed process that gets quietly dismantled in the name of speed and cost — and what that really costs you.

You'll take away:

*   Why removing a cognitive ability test to speed up the process is a bigger risk than it looks
*   What actually makes an interview "structured" — and why that distinction matters
*   How to combine methods to gain on both prediction and fairness without making the process overwhelming
*   What candidates value most: transparency, job relevance, and timely communication
