Personality questionnaires

Candidate personality tests for recruitment and selection.

In recruitment,  personality questionnaires  are used to assess a candidate’s personality profile, that is, how they like to work, approach problems, stay motivated and what drives their emotional reactions.

Candidates taking a Clevry personality questionnaire will be presented with several statements relating to behaviour and motivations in the workplace and asked to rate the extent to which they agree or disagree.

Answers provided by candidates are then used to build a well-rounded view of their personality in relation to the role being applied to.

Once a candidate has completed their personality questionnaire their results will be compared to a norm group. This allows recruiters to better understand candidates in relation to a general average and thus make more informed decisions on who is being hired.

Personality

Reports

One assessment gives you access to a wide range of personality reports, including motivational values and culture fit results.

The Insights Report provides a comprehensive exploration into key findings from an individual’s personality profile. Insights examines the ways in which an individual is likely to respond to people, tasks, demands, rewards and culture at work.

A good all-rounder, designed for use by recruiters, line managers, and HR and L&D professionals.

Selection Report

The Selection Report describes the degree of fit between an individual’s psychometric results and the critical attributes of a specified role within your organisation. It’s a great narrative report for any questionnaire that has been job matched.

This is where you indicate what your ideal candidate would look like on each of the scales using a 5 point sliding scale ranging from Great fit to Terrible fit with the target role.

Interviewer Report

Designed for use by recruiters, line managers, and HR and L&D professionals. The Clevry Interviewer Report can also be used by managers and coaches in the context of development planning.

Our Interviewer Report offers guidance and suggests open-ended questions for conducting a competency-based interview or a follow-up exploration discussion. The reports summarise the key findings from the candidate’s personality profile, allowing you to build a more well rounded view of their strengths.

Onboarding Report

Helps you identify the most effective ways to get your new recruits off to a great start in their new role.

The Onboarding Report provides managers with tailored information on each new recruit, advising on how to maximise their potential and how they can be encouraged to deploy their key strengths in their new role.

Sales Report
