As a experienced job seeker, I have been found that after a successful interview you have to take a set of psychological test to assess your abilities. Why not to take a full test that you may present to companies as a certificate? It is to say something like a TOEFL. It could be beneficial for candidates as well as companies since may test abilities in a modern and standardized way. Moreover, with the test in hand, you may know what are your abilities and your weakness.

Not a bad idea, if it could be safeguarded against being "gamed." The main weakness seems to me to be that a person could take the test multiple times until he passed, or could study up on the questions asked. (If any particular test with unchanging questions achieved the status of being a skeleton key to many jobs, there'd be an incentive to obtain the questions from former test-takers and distribute or sell them.) The current system prevents this from happening.
