The purpose of screening is to greatly shorten and streamline recruitment processes by ensuring at an early stage that the candidates who go forward have the required basic conditions. Screening tests can advantageously replace CV and cover letter selection as they offer an inclusive and non-discriminatory selection where all candidates are treated in the same objective way.

When recruiting, it is easy to focus on experience. Just because a candidate has worked in a shop before does not mean that he or she is more service-oriented than others. Personality tests can therefore open up career paths for a person who may have what it takes but lacks previous experience of working in a shop, for example.
The integrity and service screening algorithms help you gain insights into the personal suitability of candidates for service roles and other jobs where integrity or service are important parameters for doing a good job. It is well-suited to positions with many applicants and where certain specific personal characteristics are important, such as shop staff, warehouse workers, salespeople, assemblers, and production and manufacturing positions.
