Empowering Talent Acquisition: Dr. Haniza Yon’s Keynote at SPA’s Strategic Recruitment Programme

Feb 25, 2025

At the recent Strategic Recruitment & Competency-Based Interview Programme hosted by Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Awam Malaysia (SPA), Dr. Haniza Yon, CEO of Global Psytech, delivered an insightful keynote on the transformative power of psychometric assessments and AI in talent acquisition. Her session shed light on how data-driven hiring strategies can enhance recruitment fairness, efficiency, and long-term workforce success.



In her session, Dr Haniza clarified the differences between Psychometrics as a science field that is concerned with the theory and technique of educational and psychological measurement versus psychometric assessment as one of the tools used to understand people.

In an era where skills, behavioural traits, and cognitive abilities matter as much as technical qualifications, traditional hiring methods often fall short. Psychometric assessments provide a science-backed approach to identifying the right talent, ensuring organizations select individuals best suited for their roles. Dr. Haniza highlighted how these assessments promote objective and bias-free hiring, improve employee-job alignment, and predict long-term success by evaluating key behavioural and cognitive traits. She also emphasized how AI-driven hiring tools can enhance public sector recruitment by ensuring a structured and meritocratic selection process.

During the session, she introduced Global Psytech’s AI-powered exam management system, which simplifies and secures the exam process, auto-grading, and detailed reporting. Its AI driven and hybrid proctoring ensure efficient, secure, and reliable assessments, making it ideal for educational and certification needs.

We extend our gratitude to SPA for the opportunity to contribute to this impactful initiative and to all attendees for their enthusiastic engagement.
