Understanding candidates' work preferences
The Prevue Motivations & Interests Assessment is designed to evaluate an individual’s preferences for different types of work. We gauge candidates’ interest levels in interacting with people, working with data, and handling things, and compare these interests against your customized benchmarks for the role. It’s not a measure of performance, but a measure of preference. People are more effective in jobs that align with their interests.
- Does the candidate prefer to interact with people, or work alone?
- Does analyzing statistics sound like a dream or a nightmare?
- Do they like working with their hands?
If the role aligns with their motivations, they’re more likely to achieve their career goals within your organization.
