Personality tests differ from intelligence tests. Therefore they are often called questionnaires. Unlike in an ordinary test, where an answer may be right or wrong in a personality test the question is rather, how well a specific statement applies to oneself and therefore no answer can be wrong. A possible statement from such a questionnaire is for example: “In a group I always take the lead.”

The results of these self-assessments help you to recognize your strengths and weaknesses and enable you to get to know yourself better. However the statements have to be answered truthfully for the personality test to be useful. For this reason the results have to be handled with caution, as the HR managers cannot be sure that the questions really were answered honestly.

That is why sometimes a third-party assessment is undertaken: an additional person evaluates the person who completed the personality test. This way one can obtain two independent perspectives of one person which, ideally, correspond with each other. The “BigFive” is an example of a personality test in which a second person evaluates the same statements and the results are compared face to face with each other in a single chart.

Multicheck offers you a selection of three different personality tests. Two of these tests are free of charge and can be completed online with the possibility to review the results immediately afterwards.
