What is Personality Testing?

Workplace strategies do not only refer to how work is conducted, but also how you choose individuals to perform the work.

There are various techniques and strategies utilised when conducting professional interviews for an organisational position, and many have been proven successful dependent on the industry in question.

Here, I will begin Hubb’s three-part series, discussing the utilisation of personality testing in the professional workplace.

So, what exactly is personality testing? The term personality testing refers to the consistent and accurate measurement of an individual’s personality through systematic and scientific observations. There generally is no right or wrong answer when it comes to personality tests, and at times the scores are difficult to interpret. Therefore, many modernised forms of personality tests are based on comparing certain aspects to what is considered the ‘norm.’

So, with that being said, I’m sure you are asking how and why they are increasingly implemented into professional interview settings? Keep your eyes peeled for next weeks post as we divulge further into the strategic use of personality testing in the workplace.
