Stress interviews, huh? I guess they're trying to see if the candidate can handle the pressure of being grilled by a panel of HR professionals who are just waiting for them to crack. 'So, tell me, how do you feel about being the only one who doesn't understand the local language?' *evil laugh*

Standardized tests and inventories? Sounds like a real snooze-fest. Unless they include a section on 'how to survive a foreign cuisine without losing your lunch,' I'm not sure that's going to be the most effective tool.

Self-assessment? I can just imagine the responses: 'I'm totally ready for this! What could possibly go wrong?' Yeah, that's not exactly the most reliable method, is it?

Simulations seem like the way to go. You can really get a feel for how someone would handle the challenges of an international assignment without the real-world consequences. Plus, it's way more fun than filling out a standardized test.

Stress interviews? Really? That's just a recipe for disaster when you're trying to gauge someone's readiness for an international assignment. Talk about adding more pressure to an already stressful situation.
