SHR supports companies in Delémont and the canton of Jura to objectify a human decision: hiring, promotion, internal mobility or development.
When a position commits the organisation for the long term, an interview alone is rarely enough. Our assessments in Delémont compare the role's real requirements against observed competencies: analysis, decision-making, communication, ability to drive a team.
Succeeding in one role does not guarantee success in the next. We assess what the person can build on in their new role, and what will need to be developed — in the context of companies in the canton of Jura (sous-traitance horlogère, industrie de précision, administration cantonale et PME jurassiennes).
The feedback report is not limited to a diagnosis. It identifies concrete development priorities, which can be extended through coaching or targeted trainings in Delémont.

An Assessment Delémont run by SHR serves a decision first: hiring, promotion, succession or a development plan. Every Assessment Delémont is built from the actual role, your culture and the local business context, not from a standard test battery.
Our Assessment Delémont combines a structured interview, role-close exercises and, where relevant, validated psychometric questionnaires, so each competency is observed from several angles and the conclusions of the Assessment Delémont are sturdier than a single interview.
Organisations that commission an Assessment Delémont receive a reasoned report, a debrief for the decision-maker and individual feedback for the person assessed. A well-run Assessment Delémont leaves something useful whatever the outcome.
The Assessment Delémont can take place on your premises, at a neutral local venue or partly online. To organise an Assessment Delémont, simply describe the role and timing and we will propose a suitable design.
In Delémont, we assess directors and managers of family SMEs, watchmaking-subcontracting and machine-tool workshops, as well as cantonal administration leaders. Our simulations focus on leading close-knit teams, preparing a succession and the ability to structure a growing organisation without losing its proximity.
A serious assessment does not start with a test but with a question: which decision is it meant to inform? Hiring, promotion, succession and development reviews call for different exercises and different reports, so every design starts from the actual role.
A conversation with leadership and HR to turn the role into four to six observable competencies, with examples of expected behaviour in your context rather than a generic framework.
Structured interviews on real past situations, work-sample exercises close to the role (in-tray, difficult conversation, board presentation) and, where justified, validated psychometric questionnaires. Each competency is observed through at least two methods.
Candidates are told how the day runs and how results will be used. Observations are rated independently, then compared in an integration session to limit halo effects and first-impression bias.
A written report and a debrief with the decision-maker, followed by individual feedback to the person assessed, who leaves with concrete development points whatever the decision.
It does not predict the future with certainty and does not replace your judgement: it reduces uncertainty on specific competencies. Nor is it a way to justify a decision already taken — if that is the request, we will say so in the first conversation.
Our designs follow international guidelines on assessment centres and test use: role-based competencies, multiple methods, trained assessors and informed candidates. Recent research on predictive validity confirms that structured interviews and work-sample exercises are among the most reliable methods. Personal data is handled under Switzerland’s revised Federal Act on Data Protection, in force since 1 September 2023.
