Inside This Assessment

Mercer | Mettl’s job personality test offers a comprehensive review of candidates’ underlying personality traits and workstyle preferences. It is a powerful tool to understand what behaviors they are likely to display as a result of their preferences and predispositions.
The test is based on the Five Factor Model that identifies five key areas as the building blocks of a robust career personality profiler. 
The “Big Five” personality traits listed below, help predict important job-related outcomes such as professional performance, potential, trainability and subsequent job satisfaction. 
1.Extraversion (outgoing/energetic vs. solitary/reserved)
2.Openness to experience (inventive/curious vs. consistent/cautious)
3.Emotional stability (secure/confident vs. sensitive/nervous)
4.Agreeableness (friendly/compassionate vs. cold/unkind)
5.Conscientiousness (efficient/organized vs. easy-going/careless)
Mercer | Mettl’s team of psychometricians and subject matter experts are a part of SIOP (Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology).   They have developed 26 scales based on the Five Factor Model.  These scales are mapped to specific performance models or behavioral competencies necessary to thrive in a job role/industry.

  •  Identify candidates displaying the most desirable personalities.
  •  Analyze candidates for culture-fitment
  •  Gain key inputs for vital HR decisions like learning and development, high- potential identification and succession planning.
  •  Improve the quality of recruitment

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The assessment has been designed on the ‘semantic differential’ format, which requires candidates to consider their preferences and choose between two " equally desirable" statements. The assessment also delivers ‘instructional warnings,’ where candidates are informed that distorted or fake responses will invalidate the assessment. The assessment tool can also identify specific response patterns that may indicate fake responses.

Yes. We can provide customized assessment solutions that consider the organization’s requirements and competency framework to determine the appropriate behaviors that indicate success in the organization's context. Please write to Mercer | Mettl with the request for assistance.

The normal probability distribution of scores of a particular norm group determines the proficiency levels required.

We have taken all necessary steps to reduce the possibility of test takers trying to present themselves in a socially desirable manner. For example, the test follows a ‘semantic differential’ format, which makes it hard to ‘guess’ the appropriate response. Additionally, the items are presented in a format that requires one to consciously think about one's preferences and then choose a more ‘desirable’ statement. The tool also identifies specific patterns of the responses and can indicate if candidates attempt to respond dishonestly.

It is possible to do so for different job roles for your organization. We follow a scientifically valid benchmarking process. Please write to us and we would be glad to assist.

The data obtained through across industries and across verticals of various types of organizations is updated in the Mettl database periodically. Utmost care is taken such that the newly added data gets incorporated periodically while preparing the reports.
