How do Big 5 Assessments work?

The accepted premise of Big 5 Assessment Tests is that personality is an inherited complex of traits that controlled our behavior in the past, controls it at present and will control in the future. Since many of the traits are temporarily fixed and measurable, we can assess people to determine their preferred behavioral styles.

The most common employee assessment test model is the five-factor model, also known as the “Big Five.” Many people identify the five personality dimensions by an acronym called OCEAN. We have chosen to label them as CLUES, an easily-remembered acronym that precisely captures their intended usage – CLUES about the nature of the person being assessed. These five independent factors using both the OCEAN and CLUES acronyms are described in more detail below.

 

Conscientiousness

Describes the degree to which the individual is persistent, organized and motivated ranging from being highly disciplined and dependable to being carefree and lackadaisical.

Likeable (Agreeableness)

Describes the degree to which the person is pleasant and agreeable, ranging from being warm, tolerant, and tactful, to being tough-minded, assertive, skeptical and direct.

Unconventional (Openness)

Involves the degree to which the person is open to new ideas, is adventurous, ranging from being unstructured, curious, and venturesome, to being predictable, rules oriented, closed, and structured.

Extraversion

Describes the sources and focus of an individual’s emotional energy, ranging from being outgoing, dominant, ambitious, and sociable, to being introverted, shy, and quiet. 

Stable (Neuroticism)

Involves the degree to which an individual is emotionally stable and resistant to stress, ranging from being well-adjusted, calm, self-confident, and poised, to being nervous and anxious.

Pay-As-You-Go Credits

A test credit is required to run a report. Unlike many of our competitors, Big 5 Assessments charge per candidate, not per test. That means once a candidate or employee completes the questionnaire, the employer can run additional reports on this same candidate or participant without incurring additional unit charges as long as the account is active. You are only charged one unit per candidate. Units may be purchased in blocks of 10 or more. There are discounts available, please contact us for details. 

Annual Unlimited Use

The Big 5 Assessments annual unlimited use option is by far the most convenient and cost effective method for companies with high turnover or rapid growth. Great rates are available for companies with as few as 10 employees or medium to large organizations with 1000s.  The subscription allows you unlimited use of the pre-hire testing system and to run as many reports as you wish on an unlimited amount of candidates and employees.
