Equip offers two standardized psychometric evaluations: DISC and OCEAN (Big Five). Unlike a quiz or coding test, a psychometric test does not produce a percentage or a pass mark.

​
Why There Is No Score

Psychometric tests are subjective tests: they measure personality traits, not skills. There are no correct answers, so there is nothing to grade. Consider a typical question: “Do you agree that you are more creative than analytical?” Neither answer is right or wrong. The answer you prefer depends on the role you are hiring for. Because there are no points to award, you cannot assign a psychometric test a weightage, so it is excluded from the Overall Assessment Score.
Psychometric tests are standardized, so you cannot add or edit their questions. For a scored questionnaire with your own questions and points, build a Custom Test instead.

Reading Psychometric Results

Instead of a score, each candidate’s results page shows a personality graph of where they fall on each trait.
1

Open the candidate's results

Open the candidate from the assessment results page.
2

Hover over each trait

Hover on the graph to see a description of each trait and how to interpret the candidate’s position on it.
The traits shown depend on whether the assessment includes DISC or OCEAN. A sample full report is available on Equip’s psychometric test page.
Do not use psychometric results as an automatic filter or cutoff. Read them against the role, not against other candidates, and combine them with skill tests and interviews before making a decision.
To give the psychometric test only to candidates who clear your skill tests, invite your shortlist to a second assessment. See Psychometric Tests for the steps.
