Testgroup’s Big Five personality test is based on 5 different character traits that are tested to gain insight into the personality of employees or job applicants. With this test we help companies and governments to find and place suitable employees, and to get a good picture of them during the application. Within 45 minutes you have the results of the test, and so you immediately know where you stand as an employer. And perhaps more importantly, whether this candidate or employee is suitable for the intended position. An overview of the ‘Big 5’ character traits that our Big Five personality test assesses:
Benefits of the Big Five personality test
Companies use Testgroup’s Big Five personality test primarily to select and help develop employees. By having a clear picture of an employee’s character and personality, specific qualities and ‘shortcomings’ can be taken into account. Everyone has his or her strengths and weaknesses that can be taken into account. In this way you can place the right employees in the right place, and thereby help the employee in the development of his or her career.
A special algorithm, called Normative Split Technology®, is used to counteract the steering of this test. This technology makes it clear to the purchaser that the user is trying to steer the test, and therefore gives answers that do not match his or her personality. For example, socially desirable interpretations, or doubts about the answers, are indicated. By correcting for this, you achieve a better end result, with results that are easier to interpret.
Big Five personality test report
After taking the personality test, a report is prepared to give an overview of the results. On this report, 34 ‘Big Five competencies’ are used to assess the personality of the buyer. In this report first of all an overview is given of the above described algorithm that prevents steering of the answers. Then a brief overview is given on 4 areas of personality: control, output, mental and attitude. This is for a quick and brief overview, after which in detail a grade is given for each trait. This allows a good distinction between the qualities and shortcomings of buyers in Testgroup’s Big Five personality test. Having a good overview of the qualities helps companies enormously with the correct placement of employees, and also the necessary guidance in the career. In this way, an employee can develop better over the longer term through our personality test.
