No matter how good applicants may look on paper or how positive they appear during a job interview, many job candidates lack the behavioral characteristics needed to be a good fit for the job and the organization — and some applicants are experts at fooling even the most experienced recruiter.

Oftentimes difficult personality characteristics, poor cognitive abilities, and even issues with integrity will not surface until after hiring decisions have been made. You are then left to deal with the emotional strain and potential legal problems associated with having to terminate a bad hire, not to mention all the costs of recruiting and training new employees and the loss of productivity due to turnover.

Now you can get a more complete profile of your job candidates before you make those costly hiring decisions with Identity, a suite of valid, automated behavioral tests from First Advantage.

Our suite of Cognitive and Behavioral Assessments measure an individual’s attitudes, aptitudes, and characteristics to determine the individual’s suitability to the position and the culture of the organization. Likewise assessment results will help in career counseling, performance coaching, managing, and developing the person.
