Ergometrics and Applied Personnel Research, Inc. is a Washington-based firm in the human resources services sector that develops entry-level and promotional simulation assessments. Its tests are video-based, job-related simulations intended to reflect how candidates perform in real-world, critical-to-success situations while aiming to limit adverse impact on diverse applicant pools and help reduce turnover by selecting better-fitting candidates. The company, founded in 1981, operates with a small to mid-sized team from its Lynnwood location. In 2006, Ergometrics formed National Testing Network, the test administration arm that runs continuous recruitment and testing for public safety and transit agencies and professional licensing programs at locations across the United States. Beyond testing, it has developed licensing examinations for various state-monitored professions and, from 2015, offers background investigations for public safety agencies.
