In order to measure intelligence, we need to identify the cluster of abilities or skills, in the form of which intelligence manifests itself. These skills and abilities cluster is called a ‘competency’. We have identified the key competencies that help in accurate measurement of our fluid intelligence, crystallized intelligence and core cognitive brain functions.
Competencies refer to job-relevant behavior, motivation and technical knowledge required to be successful on-the-job. Aligning HR processes to competencies helps evaluate performance, set clear job expectations and growth plans.
Mettl has created competency libraries across, Behavioral, Cognitive, Domain and Technology based competencies.

Creativity tests measure specific cognitive processes such as thinking divergently, making associations, constructing and combining broad categories, or working on many ideas simultaneously. However, they are best thought of as measures of creative potential because creative achievement depends on additional factors not measured by creativity tests, such as technical skill, knowledge of a field, mental health, or even opportunity.
