PRO TIP

An essential feature of Talent Q's Elements series is that they are adaptive tests using a technology they call Talent Q's Dynamic Assessment Technology. This means that the test is generating itself by regarding your answers to the previous question. If you got the correct answer, the next question will automatically be increased in difficulty. Likewise, if you get an answer wrong, the next question will decrease in difficulty. Therefore, the test does not has a set difficultly level and your score will depend on what level of question difficultly you managed to correctly answer.

Talent Q personality and competency questionnaires

  • Talent Q Dimensions: Talent Q Dimensions is a deep and robust personality questionnaire that typically takes around 25 minutes to complete. This assessment is usually only taken later on during the recruitment process when the employee is being considered. The employer wishes to find out whether the employee will be a good fit. Dimensions gives a large portfolio, and provides a lot of information on a candidate's personality. This includes how they will work with and/or manage others.
  • The personality questionnaire is broken down into three categories: People and Relationships, Tasks and Projects, and Drives and Emotions. Each category has various scales and detail provided.
  • Talent Q Aspects: Talent Q Aspects is used as a screening process, usually for high volume recruitment. It assesses the key competencies that the role will require. As such, it is competency-based assessment. This Aspects assessment typically takes only 8 minutes long.
