At WeCP, we understand that hiring great talent isn’t just about evaluating current skills. The key to successful hiring lies in identifying candidates who have the potential to thrive and grow in dynamic environments. This is why we’ve developed the Triple-A Assessment Framework—a holistic approach that evaluates Ability, Approach, and Attitude.

With WeCP’s tools, you can systematically assess all three dimensions through tailored assessments and structured tasks, helping you make well-informed decisions and secure future-proof talent.


What is WeCP’s Triple-A Assessment Framework?

Analyzing millions of talent's data from the last 4 decades suggests that, talent who showed potential in the early days of their career signaled 3 simple qualities.

  • They had some kinda ability to solve real world problems

  • There was legitimacy to the approach they took to solve simple to complex problems

  • They had extremely positive attitude towards problem solving

WeCP founders created this framework to what is it called today as Triple-A Framework evaluates a candidate in three key dimensions:

  1. Assess Ability: Give candidates a real-world problem-solving task.

  2. Assess Approach: Ask candidates to explain their approach and how they would solve the problem in a different scenario or context.

  3. Assess Attitude: Use behavioral assessments to gauge mindset, emotional intelligence, and cultural fit.

This structured approach ensures you’re not only evaluating what candidates can do today but also how they think, adapt, and behave, providing a clear picture of their potential.


1. Assessing Ability: Problem-Solving Task

Start by assigning candidates a real-world task that aligns with the role they are applying for. This phase tests their technical skills, domain knowledge, and ability to execute.

2. Assessing Approach: Evaluating Thinking and Adaptability

Once the candidate completes the task, ask them to explain their approach. This helps you understand how they think and structure their work.

Next, present a different context or scenario for the same problem. This assesses the candidate’s adaptability and ability to apply knowledge across different situations.

3. Assessing Attitude: Behavioral Traits and Cultural Fit

The final step is to assess the candidate’s attitude—their mindset, emotional intelligence, and alignment with your company’s values. Behavioral traits are critical to long-term success, as even highly skilled individuals can underperform if they lack the right attitude.
