The Criterion Personality Questionnaire is unlike anything else on the market. We don’t subscribe to a one-size-fits-all approach to personality; the CPQ offers unparalleled flexibility by allowing you to pick and choose the elements you want to measure.
The CPQ is made up of 46 scales split across five key areas of personality at work. These elements are:
Interpersonal Style – The candidate’s approach to working with others, taps into their style of communication and preferences for working around others
Thinking Style – The candidate’s approach to tasks, decisions and challenges
Emotional Style – The candidate’s reaction to the emotional demands of the role
Motivations – Understanding what drives the candidate and helps them to feel energised and motivated at work
Culture Fit – Understanding the style of environment that is best suited to the candidate
We provide the following 3 options for you to choose from:
1. OFF-THE-SHELF OPTION
Psycruit offers two off-the-shelf personality questionnaires, both of which include a range of scales from across the five elements.
The Criterion Core (21 Scales) – Comprehensive insight into the typical preferences and tendencies for behaviours, feelings, values and motivations that are important in the workplace. This questionnaire takes about 20 minutes for the candidate to complete. Using the Core questionnaire will give you access to two specialised reports; Team Strengths Report & Sales Report.
The Criterion Enhanced (30 Scales) – Builds on the Criterion Core, offering a deeper insight across a breadth of elements of personality in an occupational setting. This questionnaire will take about 30 minutes for candidates to complete. Using it will give you access to our Leadership Report.
2. BESPOKE OPTION
Psycruit allows you to build your own personality questionnaire so you can tap directly into the traits you are interested in for the role you are recruiting for or developing. You can pick any combination of the 46 scales in the Library and structure the selection according to your own values/competency framework or use our default headings. Telling the platform ‘what good looks like’ will give you access to the Selection Report.
