Information

How it works

Candidates swipe left or right on a series of personality statements based on whether each one fits them. The format is fast, intuitive and optimized for mobile — no long forms, no test fatigue. Perfect for the first step in your hiring funnel.

Grounded in science

Built on the Big Five model — the most extensively validated personality framework in psychology. The swipe format has been shown to deliver reliable measurements with strong correlations to traditional questionnaire-based Big Five tests.

Easy-to-read reporting

Every candidate's results are translated into a clear, visual report — no psychology degree required. You see at a glance where someone scores on each Big Five dimension and how that profile aligns with the role.
