Share your results with potential employers to display your strengths and unique fit and apply for a job that matches not only your skills but also your personality.

Getting matched to the right team along culture fit matters both for you and the hiring team. When working in groups what matters are team member attitudes, values and working styles that impact collaboration and team performance. Check out our blog on this topic.

As an employee, you look for an organisation where you can not only show off your skills but also feel appreciated for who you are. For example, if you are highly independent and thrive when assigned individual tasks, you won't feel comfortable at an office that heavily relies on collaborative teamwork. This is where culture fit (aka. hiring based on personality traits) comes into play. People who are a culture fit for an organisation are more content with their work and more effective. If you compliment the company's goals, values and work style, you feel like a valuable part of the organisation not only as a worker but also as a person.

Psychometrics is a word of Greek origins meaning "mental" and "the process of measurement". It describes a field in psychology related to measuring and quantifying personality, character traits, abilities and attitudes.

Personality Assessment or Personality Test is a tool used to measure the candidates’ unique characteristics and qualities known as personality traits. It can be used in psychology (such as school psychology, relationship counselling or clinical psychology) or areas connected to employment (career counselling, hiring). Personality Assessments provide companies with an overview of the candidates’ traits and compare them to other individuals to find a new employee that fits the culture of the company. At Gyfted we provide Personality Assessments known as “self-report inventory”. During those tests candidates are asked to rate how well a given statement applies to them. Self-inventories are much more reliable and have higher validity than projective tests, which are another type of Personality Assessments and require you to interpret a scene or an object.

Personality is a set of your relatively fixed ways of behaving, feeling and thinking. That’s not to say that it’s impossible to change one’s personality - it is certainly feasible, but it requires a lot of conscious effort. There are five main personality traits known as the Big Five - neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to new experiences. Candidates can measure them using one of ourPersonality Assessments. Personality determines who people spend time with and in which social circles they feel welcome. It is especially important in a professional environment. Ensuring that your employees’ personalities fit with the spirit of the company leads to more efficient workers who are loyal to the company as they feel like they are valued not only as workers but also as people. This is where Gyfted comes in by granting you access to candidates who completed their Personality Assessments and created comprehensive profiles of their personalities allowing you to choose those who best reflect your company’s values.

In their current form, most assessments are focused on discovering candidates' weaknesses. There is often very little or no information provided to the candidates prior to the assessment. As a result, they don't know what to expect, can't prepare for the test, are stressed during the whole process and underperform. More often than not, after the test, they receive no feedback. This is not a constructive way to approach candidate evaluation. What matters for you as an employer are the candidates' strengths, not weaknesses. Candidates should be told how to prepare for the assessments to show off their strengths. Once the test is completed, they should be provided with constructive feedback to help them learn how to improve.
