### "Het inzetten van Brainsfirst bij gemeentelijke vacatures" — 5.0/5

> **Samir** | *16 March 2023* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Deze game heeft een goede wetenschappelijke basis. Daarnaast is het proces voorafgaand het inzetten van het instrument van toegevoegde waarde. Het draagt bij aan een het anders kijken naar talenten en het identificeren van talenten. Op het moment dat sollicitanten de game van Brainsfirst hebben gespeeld, ontvangen zij een rapport over hun eigen brein. Dat wordt als heel fijn ervaren door de sollicitanten. De organisatie ontvangt een soortgelijk document dat heel overzichtelijk is en goed inzicht geeft in het brein van de kandidaat ten opzichte van het profiel dat gezocht wordt. Daarnaast is het dashboard voor de organisatie overzichtelijk en goed toegankelijk.De samenwerking met Brainsfirst is prettig en ze denken goed mee met de vragen en specifieke opgaven die wij hebben.
> 
> **Cons**: De game vraagt bijna een uur tijd van de kandidaten. Echter krijgen zij daar wel wat voor terug en dit wordt over het algemeen als positief ervaren door de kandidaten.

### "Een mooi onderscheidend product" — 4.0/5

> **Annemieke** | *8 April 2023* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: De belangrijkste pluspunten van Brainfirst vind ik, dat in het profiel  geen gewenste en vertrouwde antwoorden  gegeven kunnen worden. Vanuit de regulieren profielen zit er bij het beantwoorden van de vragen altijd een deel wat (on)bewust gestuurd wordt. Hoe wil ik gezien worden en/of hoe denk ik dat mensen mij zien. Met de games sluit je dit geheel uit 😃.
> 
> **Cons**: De benoemde talenten zijn vanuit een ieders eigen perspectief uitlegbaar. Ik leg de betekenis en context uit voordat ik het profiel overhandig.  Hiermee voorkom ik onduidelijkheden.

Recruiters in human resources and sports can use the data-driven cognitive testing to support recruitment decision making. The BrainsFirst brain testing is based on neurological scientific research from the University of Amsterdam.\n\nThe science-based gamification platform consists of four different games that measure cognitive abilities in a bias-free and challenging way. Recruiters instantly gain insight into performance and applicants are matched to the most appropriate companies and job offers. \n\nCompanies can create brain profiles based on the following words: observe, think, decide, act, organize, and workflow. Recruiters decide on the importance of each skill to achieve the best cognitive fit in their organizations, depending on whether they prefer a candidate to be direct, analytical, persistent, practical, or intuitive.\n\nApplicants will receive an invitation from the recruiting company to enter the cognitive games on the connected NeurOlympics platform. The candidates will indirectly get tested on dozens of aspects of their brain. As a result, recruiters can get a better picture of the applicants’ stress response, working memory, organization skills, or setback reactions.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/370750e4-92e6-4fa5-9a7d-63a076ef60f1.png","url":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/130699/brainsfirst","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/130699/brainsfirst#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.8,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":5},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Linux, Windows on premise, Linux on premise, Chrome"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Pre-employment Testing Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/827/pre-employment-testing/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"BrainsFirst","position":3,"item":"/software/130699/brainsfirst","@type":"ListItem"}],"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/130699/brainsfirst#breadcrumblist"}]}
