Personality testing is one of the important criteria while selecting candidate which employers include as candidates personality influences how the candidate will perform if he or she get selected and how we will be able to interact with the existing staff.
According to me, the conclusion regarding personality testing and selection are:
-team spirit: while selecting an employer should consider the team spirit as if the candidate's personality matches with the job profile and will candidate personality be able to cope up with team spirit.
-customers buy from nice and good personality people. It is quite obvious that customers before buying the product interact with the employees and a candidate with a good personality will automatically attract the customer and somehow increase the sales.
-while considering personality in the selection process it is very important that the employer likes the candidate's personality. Hire the candidate you enjoy talking about and with whom you can see yourself and your team being able to work.
Yes, I believe that personality measures are valid and reliable predictors in job-related outcomes as personality describes the qualities of a person even sometimes without conducting a proper interview. Personality works maximum time as positive, enthusiastic, and good looking employees can lead the team and it is seen frequently in the service industry that how an employee has the strength to impact a customer experience just with a positive attitude.
