Basic Personality & Behavioral Assessment (Swipe Format)

The HR Avatar Basic Personality & Behavioral Assessment (Swipe Format) is a 12-minute assessment specifically designed for broad applicability across a wide variety of entry-level or non-exempt labor categories that need to be assessed quickly with an emphasis on whether candidates are likely to reliably show up to work and adequately perform. The personality portion evaluates key personality factors that are related to either job performance or job fit. The behavioral history portion of the test asks the candidates questions about their prior work behaviors that, if repeated, could present as a performance, attendance or turnover risk. For instance, candidates that report being reprimanded on the job, calling in sick when they are not, or showing up to work late, will score lower. Both positive indicators and potential detractors are evaluated.

This SWIPE version uses a swiping format designed to make the test more enjoyable to candidates. The SWIPE format also results in much faster administration. Additionally, an adaptive in-test scoring approach also reduces the items that are exposed and results in a lower testing time.

This test is mobile ready and operates on desktops, laptops and most modern mobile devices.

The specific attributes measured include:

Following completion, the test produces a Candidate Selection Report that includes an overall score and detailed scores for each attribute. The Candidate Selection Report also provides expert interview questions that help you probe critical or low-scoring areas, along with a guide for noting your evaluation of the candidates responses. Consistent use of an interview guide is an important part of gaining better candidate insights and making better hiring decisions.
