When Technology Meets I-O Psychology

Along the years, studies have shown direct correlation between the employee's personality and his/her performance levels within a specific role. TestDirect® enables instantaneous, scalable and remote in-depth analysis of a candidate’s personality & character traits and, with JobFit® enabled, the likelihood of a person to match the requirements of the role in question is determined.

Additionally, with  built-in engineered algorithms, honesty and consistency levels in candidates could also be depicted using TestDirect®. 
Right Person Right Place  

​Within minutes of testing a candidate, using the Five-Factor Model, our Personality Profile Test instantly produces an in-depth analysis of the candidate’s personality and gauges 18 character traits (aka “The Airplane Test”) and, with JobFit enabled, the likelihood of a person’s personality and character traits to match the requirement of the role in question are determined and displayed in the form of a percentage.  ​
Thorough Evaluation  
​
Given the many consequences of a bad hire, whether direct or indirect, assessing employees and applicants across several areas is vital for enabling maximum workforce optimization. By testing knowledge, skill and ability levels of a candidate across all relevant areas of the job in question, the probabilities of direct financial losses, opportunity cost and legal implications are diminished.  ​
Arabization & Localization
 
While fully bilingual (not translated), TestDirect is the only system in the world built in Arabic from the ground up. In a culturally distinct region, adopted methodologies take into consideration all aspects of the local culture and work environment when applying Industrial Organizational Psychology standards. All tests are available in Arabic & English. Reports can be indefinitely generated and/or regenerated in both languages, regardless of testing language. ​
Self-Empowered 
​
Once deployed, TestDirect enables partners to apply workforce optimization measures from within the organization itself. By providing bespoke training, TestDirect empowers recruiters and line managers with the ability to administer assessments, carry out deep analysis of results, conduct personalized interviews, define training and development goals and apply candidate/employee-specific management methodologies like they were psychometricians themselves. This serves to enhance engagement/productivity levels and diminish turnover across the organization as a whole. ​
Remote & Scalable 
​
Why sacrifice quality for quantity (or location) of candidates? TestDirect enables thorough simultaneous testing/assessment of an indefinite number of employees and/or applicants, regardless of their locations in the world while enabling sorting and query mechanisms that ensure organized objective screening is taking place. ​
