Frequently asked questions

What do personality assessments measure?

Our personality assessments measure core behavioural traits such as conscientiousness, emotional stability, and interpersonal style that influence how people behave at work. They’re designed to give you insight into how someone communicates, collaborates, and responds to different situations.

Unlike aptitude tests, which assess how well someone can think, solve problems, or learn quickly, personality assessments focus on how someone is likely to approach tasks and interact with others. Both offer different but complementary insights, and are most effective when used together.

Are Test Partnership's personality assessments scientifically validated?

Yes. Our personality assessments are built on established psychological models and rigorously tested for reliability and validity. Every assessment is trialled across diverse populations and reviewed by business psychologists to ensure it meets industry best-practice for scientific accuracy, fairness, and predictive power.

Can personality tests predict job performance?

Yes, when used appropriately. Personality assessments help identify traits that are linked to success in specific roles or environments. For example, high conscientiousness is often a predictor of performance in structured, detail-oriented jobs, while emotional stability and openness are linked to success in leadership or customer-facing roles.

Do I need any training to use and read the results?

Unlike other providers, no training is needed. Our platform is designed to be intuitive and self-serve, with reports that are easy to read and actionable. If you ever want deeper insights, our business psychologists are on hand to help.

Can the results be tailored to our roles or values?

Absolutely. You to map assessment results to the specific competencies, behaviours, or values your organisation is looking for. That means you can easily see how a candidate aligns with your role requirements, company culture, or team dynamics—without needing to interpret raw data yourself.

Can we use personality assessments for existing employees too?

Yes. Many clients use personality assessments not just for hiring, but also for internal development, team building, and leadership coaching. They’re a great way to support employee growth, improve team collaboration, and identify high-potential talent within your existing workforce.
