Work Personality Index^® Job Match Assessment

Quickly evaluate job candidates and make better selection decisions

The Work Personality Index® Job Match Assessment helps you quickly evaluate job candidates’ work personality and make better selection decisions. In as little as 20 minutes, the Work Personality Index Job Match assesses 21 work behaviours and compares the candidate’s results with your customized job benchmarks.

Purpose of the Work Personality Job Match^®

Every job has different requirements for successful performance, and the Job Match System allows you to specify the importance of the 21 WPI traits and the ideal scores that candidates should receive. These ratings are then used to examine how well a candidate’s work style fits with the requirements of the job. Each candidate who completes the WPI receives a Job Match Report outlining how closely he or she meets these requirements.

The Work Personality Index Job Match^® provides a comprehensive measure of a candidate’s personality, telling you how a candidate will:

• Complete their work
• Interact with people
• Solve problems
• Manage change
• Deal with stress

Our wpi^® job match process

Our experts will work with you to create benchmarks for the job.  You can then use our online assessment portal to administer candidate assessments and generate candidate reports.

1. Create Benchmarks – Our experts will work with you to create benchmarks for the job. One of the most effective ways to identify these requirements is to gather information from people who know the job well. These individuals who are familiar with the job and can speak about the knowledge, skills and characteristics necessary for someone to be successful in the position.
2. Assess Candidates – Use our online assessment portal, CareerID, to administer candidate assessments.
3. Evaluate Person-Job Fit – After candidates have completed the WPI on your online system you can generate a Job Match Report which will indicate how well the individual’s personality traits match with the requirements of the job.

The Work Personality Index^® Job Match Report provides:

• Overall Job Fit Score – our advanced scoring algorithm helps you quickly sort candidates based on their overall fit with job benchmarks.
• Candidate profile that helps you identify candidates’ specific areas of fit or misfit.
• In-depth narrative description of the candidate’s workplace behaviours, helping you to target areas of uncertainty in follow-up interviews. These descriptions ensure that the hiring team has a solid understanding of each candidate’s personality results, allowing them to make effective decisions.
• Profile Validity – assesses the extent to which the questionnaire was completed honestly rather than in an overly positive or unusual way.
