The Pre-Hire Personality Test (Legacy Version V3) is designed to measure key personality attributes of candidates that have been proven to relate to performance on the job. This test measures a candidate's attitudes, interests, and motivations (AIMS). The purpose of the Pre-Hire Personality test is to determine personality fit. Once evidence is collected that determines whether a candidate can do a job - their knowledge, skills, and abilites - it is important to evaluate how well the candidate will fit within a specific role and within a specific corporate culture.
This is a legacy version of HR Avatar's standard pre-hire personality assessment, which measures different competencies than our current version. Several clients have elected to continue use of the legacy test following the introduction of our current version, therefore this version is still fully supported.
This test is mobile ready and operates on desktops, laptops and most modern mobile devices.
The professional version of the Pre-Hire Personality test measures scales most relevant to employees filling professional positions. The 10 specific personality attributes measured include:
- Adaptable
- Competitive
- Corporate Citizenship
- Develops Relationships
- Enjoys Problem-Solving
- Exhibits a Positive Work Attitude
- Expressive and Outgoing
- Innovative and Creative
- Needs Structure
- Seeks Perfection
Additionally, this test includes three emotional intelligence factors:
- Empathy
- Emotional Self-Control
- Emotional Self-Awareness
The results report provides a description of each scale, as well as sample interview questions to help hiring managers probe areas in which the score causes a concern.
Note that while the Pre-Hire Personality employment test is a powerful instrument for evaluating a candidate for "fit" with a job, it is not intended to be a developmental instrument. The test report is structured to assist hiring managers in evaluating factors that often contribute to job performance and others that often detract from performance. The Pre-Hire Personality test also assists hiring managers by highlighting areas to probe during job interviews. The Pre-Hire Personality test result report is not designed to provide any type of advice to job candidates on how to improve their performance.
