HR110.2 – Personality Tests

Result Statement: To be an additional step in assuring we hire the people that are the right
fit for our purpose, vision, and values.

Why: This test helps to simply see more about each applicant before we
choose them to join our team. It helps us to know what further
questions to ask during the working interview or reference checks. We
ask further questions bases on the “yellow flags” we see.

It helps us to assure the applicant is truly enthusiastic about working for
us. Unenthusiastic or unwilling applicants will not complete it. It helps
us to see the applicant can follow instructions and meet a deadline.

It helps us know what to train, correct or watch closely for if we do
choose to hire this person.

What it is NOT: It is NOT a test to JUDGE a person. It is only to see if they are good fit
FOR US and for their POSITION. We are not looking for a certain
“personality”. We can take all types of personalities. We are looking to
see how they fit before we select them into the wrong job or wrong
place of employment.

It is NOT a test that will truly make us choose to hire or not hire by itself.
It is just part of the bigger picture that goes along with interviews,
references, working interview, etc. It helps to really understand the
person and how they may or may not fit with us.

When to do it: After the long interview, before the reference checks and working
interviews. We do it for ALL applicants, even “on-deck” applicants.

Each applicant is given 48 hours (maximum) to get this filled out. You
must speak to them about this deadline so we know when they first
heard about it…and we know they will have the 35-40 minutes to get it
