Theoretical review of personality tests How can we truly understand the person standing before us? Personality tests offer deep insight into how people think, react, and conduct themselves – providing critical information for employee recruitment, role matching, and professional guidance. Combined with skills assessments and employment preference data, a comprehensive picture emerges that enables more precise and effective selection. Instead of relying solely on resumes or brief interviews, it's possible to identify in advance the true fit between a person and an organizational environment. Investment in a quality diagnostic process contributes to reduced turnover, improved performance, and mutual satisfaction – for both employee and employer. Read

Adaptive test VS random test in psychotechnical tests A system where the items are randomly pulled from different versions is already a professional and technological challenge on a completely different level. The number of participants in the Survey must be massive. The investment in QA, professional aspects (psychologists), and the technical team (programmers) is costly compared to a single-version system; however long it may be. Nevertheless, to our understanding, this is the best way to provide a complete and durable solution to the issue of copying/studying and 'burning' the test details. Read

Which profession is right for me? Choosing a career path or field of study is a significant crossroads in life, but for many it is accompanied by confusion and uncertainty. In a reality where options are numerous and requirements are changing, there is great importance to guidance based on objective data and not just gut feeling. Our process includes three complementary components: aptitude questionnaire, skills tests, and personality assessment. The combination of all three allows creating an accurate profile that points to relevant areas of interest, personal strengths, and thinking abilities. Beyond professional matching, the guidance also helps increase the user's self-confidence and facilitates decision-making. The method is suitable not only for young people at the beginning of their journey, but also for people who want to change career direction at a more advanced stage. Each of the stages in the process is computerized, accessible, and does not require human accompaniment – but is based on principles of contemporary occupational psychology. Read

The insane cost of choosing the wrong profession or studies Choosing a profession or field of study is one of the most important decisions a person makes in their lifetime. The choice affects career, quality of life, income level, and even personal satisfaction. However, studies show that many of us make these decisions irrationally, without adequate tools or proper guidance. The result is often a heavy price, reflected in the economic, psychological, and social spheres. In this article, we will review the implications of wrong choices, their causes, and ways to reduce the risk through career guidance. Read

(1959) A Theory of Vocational Choice. Holland, J. L. The understanding that we are all unique and possess different personality characteristics brings with it the search for adaptations of other areas in our lives to these characteristics in general and the choice of a profession in particular. Even before computers entered our lives, to find the ideal job, it was customary to use books or written guides to get information about the available professions. However, following the transition to a computerized database, the available information on the work market is more extensive, allowing easier access and higher relevance, but at the same time can be confusing. Therefore, in recent years, emphasis has been placed on choosing the best professional match between the qualities of candidates and the growing diversity of the work market. Read

IQ Test Many psychologists made the first attempts to describe and measure IQ in the 19th century. In 1905, Alfred Bina and Théodore Simon, two French psychologists, first presented an IQ test for children, which was designed to divide them into classes in order to fit them with a curriculum based on the assumption that intelligence should be measured through tasks that require logic and problem solving and not by perceptual skills. Bina established the term "mental age" - the "intellectual" age (measured by the test and the ability to answer and complete tasks) was compared to the child's chronological age to assess the level of his intellectual development.

Predictive validity VS criteria validity Many years ago, somewhere in 2008, when I took my first steps in developing a system for diagnosing candidates via the Internet, I asked Dr. Meirav Hami, then a young psychologist who had recently graduated and was recruited by me, to develop a skills test system called Logi (logic) Pass (Passes): 1. What is validity? 2. What does it mean? 3. Why aren't HR managers excited and keep asking about its validity? To be honest, I didn't understand. Up until that moment, my thought process was such: Let's say we have a math test. If it turns out that those who succeed in it are indeed better than the others in math - hallelujah, we have validity! But no, this is called 'criteria validity,' and it created quite a bit of confusion for me. Read

From crisis to opportunity Life is full of surprises, crises, and opportunities. Undoubtedly, we are in the midst of change, and changes can and should be responded to quickly. Sometimes it is the difference between being or ceasing. Many managers and human resources professionals we have met over the years are enthusiastic and understand the product's benefits. Yet, despite this, sometimes they fear change and the consequences involved. A change in the recruitment processes, the introduction of a new system, and the initial effort required sometimes prevent our clients from daring to make the change, despite the clear benefits for them.

Silence of the employees When reviewing literature regarding employee involvement in the organization, the employee's "voice" is always treated as a possibility given or not given by the management. The question arises, will an employee want to make his voice heard? What importance does he attach to making his voice heard as a basis for teamwork? Read

Workplace crime and deviance Most of the time, when we hear the word "delinquent", we imagine a big man, a thug, with an evil look on his face... However, few people think that "delinquency" in the workplace involves ordinary people like you and me. The definition of delinquency in the workplace refers to behaviors made by choice by the organization's employees that violate agreed norms, ethics, or fundamental laws and threaten the well-being of the organization and/or its inhabitants.

Leadership and personality In the 21st century, management positions are expected to increase, multiply, and form a more significant part of the labor market than in previous years.

Integrity testing What is integrity? In its simplest definition, integrity is the ability to tell the truth. Its meaning is not to justify a situation or reverse its meaning to justify the individual's behavior. The meaning of the word is to face and tell the whole truth, regardless of the extent to which this truth is good or bad for the person who says it. Integrity, honesty, and reliability are all synonyms for adhering to the principles and values of morality and ethics. Read
