CraftMetrics

Using the most advanced Internet technologies, Craftmetrics online testing reduces applicant inaccuracies and lets you know when they are “selling” themselves to “get the job.” 

Our Craftmetics is the newest generation personality test developed for hiring and coaching.

Thousands of employers around the globe have administered over 1,000,000 “Craft Tests” to select and develop peak performing employees. Both these tests work so well because of the simplicity and speed of administration over the Internet and because of their unique ability to measure and predict peak performance. Craft Metrics recommends the use of both a 20-minute, 81 question personality test, and a 10-minute, 35 question intelligence test. In less than one minute, you can use our online system to invite your applicant to take the tests (just type in the name and email address and click a button). Within seconds after each test is completed, you receive a link to review the test results. It’s that simple. The same system also works for coaching existing employees.

Personality Inventory (CMPI)

The CraftMetrics Personality Inventory is the latest generation “Craft Test.” This unique assessment measures the Core Components of the personality traits that are measured by nearly all the popular personality assessments.

Learning Aptitude Survey

The CraftMetrics Learning Aptitude Survey measures the applicant’s ability to handle complex job duties.

Bio-Data Survey (BDS)

This 10-15 minute Internet-based survey is designed to replace your application for employment and eliminate the need for resumes.

Personality Inventory (CMPI)

The CraftMetrics Personality Inventory is the latest generation “Craft Test.” This unique assessment measures the Core Components of the personality traits that are measured by nearly all the popular personality assessments. These Core Components are then combined to measure “Ego Drive” and “Empathy” along with over a dozen additional secondary traits such as “Prospecting Motivation ” and “Proficiency to Manage Time and Resources.

The CMPI begins by asking the candidate to read and respond to questions about an introductory paragraph (explaining how important it is to avoid the temptation to “sell yourself” to leave an unrealistically favorable impression). The applicant is then asked to describe the “ideal or perfect candidate” prior to describing themselves. This process of repeatedly emphasizing the importance of honesty when responding to the questions has been found to significantly reduce the candidates’ tendency to describe themselves in an unrealistically favorable way.

Responses from over 1,000,000 applicants have been statistically analyzed over the past 30 years to provide scoring algorithms to help determine when an applicant’s responses are unrealistically favorable and inaccurate. As a result of these algorithms, management receives an “Accuracy Score” that determines if the results should be depended upon. For those applicants with low or moderate Accuracy Scores, follow-up interview questions are automatically generated for the manager. No other employment test in the industry employs such precise psychometric methodologies to thwart and measure this most important source of error variance.

CraftMetrics Learning Aptitude Survey measures the applicant’s ability to handle complex job duties. It has been our experience that any selection system is incomplete if you don’t know the candidate’s capacity to learn their job duties and perform them efficiently and effectively. Even in sales positions, learning aptitude is important. Sales reps often have licensing requirements, multiple product lines or positions that require a basic understanding of math or finance. When an existing employee has problems in this area, management seldom recognizes it until it is too late. Either the employee has quit out of frustration or the employee has made a costly mistake.

Bio-Data Survey (BDS)

This 10-15 minute Internet-based survey is designed to replace your application for employment and eliminate the need for resumes. You just attach our link to your corporate website or job board and receive surveys automatically each time an applicant completes the survey. The BDS measures the five factors that represent the applicant’s Skills, Knowledge, and Values. These factors include Employment Stability, Employment Expectations, Education/Training, Work Ethic/Self-discipline,  Drive/Motivation. Each question that measures these five factors is psychometrically designed to minimize applicant “gaming” and inaccuracies. While resumes and applications for employment are rife with inaccuracies and exaggerations, you can rest assured your applicant’s BioData Survey has minimized or eliminated inaccurate information

Why CraftMetrics?

Minimize applicant "Gaming"

Minimize Applicant “Gaming” The great majority of pre-employment tests are transparent and easily “gamed” by test-wise applicants. To prove the point, ask five or more existing employees to take your current employment test with specific instructions: “Don’t describe yourself; describe the ideal or perfect candidate for the job.” You’ll find that most of the questions asked on the assessment have an “ideal” response. Take those ideal responses and transfer them onto another assessment and send it in to your test distributor. Don’t be surprised when they tell you to “hire them!” You’ll find that you’ve been hiring test-wise applicants rather than qualified applicants and the cost to you for these mistakes could be significant.

Customize Your Platform

Another reason for considering Craft is that, you have the flexibility of combining different assessments onto our platform and selecting different reports that describe the results either for you

Avoid the “Forever Plan”

One of the frustrations shared by larger companies is the fact that they are always on the “forever plan” with most test vendors. Once you begin using their assessments, you will be paying “forever.” Our unique platform allows us to validate our assessments based on an internal sample of existing employees and applicants, thus allowing us to offer larger companies the option of owning the assessments without continuing to pay monthly or annual fees to a test vendor.
