Employers of labour under the aegis of the Nigerian Employers Consultative Assembly have initiated a move to end the era of subjecting prospective graduate employment seekers to multiple aptitude tests by different potential employers.

The move will see to the emergence of a standard aptitude test to be recognised by NECA, which employers can key into whenever they have a need to employ fresh graduates or fill entry level positions in their respective organisations. Ikazoboh said the current situation where every organisation that wanted to hire young graduates conducted separate aptitude tests for prospective employees was not only time consuming and confusing, but also wasteful of resources for both employers and candidates.
