简短回答
The Values and Culture Add test is a 10-minute profile of 40 work statements. It shows how a candidate prefers to work, alone or with others, by plan or improvising, with new or proven methods, and with candor or tact, set beside your company values.
What it describes
A profile, not a grade: no trait end is better than the other.
Shared versus independent work
Lower: Prefers to own tasks from start to finish, decide alone and check in when there is something to share.
Higher: Prefers shared effort: working alongside others, deciding as a group and checking in often.
Structure versus flexibility
Lower: Prefers loose plans, shifting priorities and room to improvise as work unfolds.
Higher: Prefers clear plans, defined steps and predictable routines agreed before work begins.
New methods versus proven methods
Lower: Prefers refining methods that already work and delivering dependable results from them.
Higher: Prefers trying new methods, experimenting and changing how work gets done.
Candor versus tact
Lower: Prefers raising disagreement with care, often one to one, keeping working relationships smooth.
Higher: Prefers saying disagreement and feedback plainly and openly, even in a group.
Question formats
Personality statements
The candidate: Rates how well short statements about working habits describe them.
You see: A self-described working style across several traits, shown as a profile rather than a grade.
40 questions in 10 minutes, served one at a time.
Roles this test fits
Any role at any level, as one input next to interviews and skills tests when a team wants to understand shared values and the fresh perspectives a candidate may add.
What this profile can add to hiring
Set beside your stated values
Read against the values your company records: where a candidate shares your view and where they would add something new.
Everyday work choices
Statements describe practical choices, such as owning a task end to end or deciding as a group, never private life.
No better end
Both ends of each value are healthy preferences; neither is the right answer.
What you get for each candidate
Each value is read against your company’s own answers: one input for a conversation.
- Shared versus independent workShares the company’s view
- Structure versus flexibilityWould add something new
- New methods versus proven methodsShares the company’s view
- Candor versus tactWould add something new
- Stayed on the test tab throughout
- No pasted answers
- Answered at a steady pace
Scores, profiles and integrity signals are evidence for you to review alongside an interview, never an automatic decision.
How the profile supports review
Each candidate gets different statements from large pools, in a different order, one at a time, with no going back. Timing runs on the server. Blocked copies, time away from the tab and pastes go into an Integrity Score with an evidence timeline that never decides on its own. There are no right answers to look up.

Use the profile as evidence, not a verdict
A profile, not a grade: read it beside your values, then explore it with a work sample and a structured interview, never deciding on it alone. See the pre-employment testing guide, Emotional Intelligence and DISC Work Style, or roles such as Customer Support Agent.
Structured interview questions to explore the profile
Tell me about a task you shared with others. How did you split the work?
Listen for their own part in sharing work and decisions.
A priority changes mid-plan. How do you decide what to do next?
Listen for how they weigh the plan against new information.
You disagree with a teammate’s feedback. How do you raise it?
Listen for how plainly or carefully they raise it, and why.
Understand scoring and benchmarks
Fairness and accommodations
There are no right or wrong answers: both ends of every value are described as healthy ways to work, and statements toward each end are written as positive preferences so neither end reads as better. Statements are about everyday work in plain words, with nothing about private life, religion, politics, family or customs tied to one culture, and the result is a profile to discuss, never a pass or fail.
You can give any candidate extra time as an accommodation. Results are evidence for a person to review, never an automatic decision.
Provisional: reliability is reported once 200 candidates have completed it. The profile reflects how candidates describe their own preferences at the time they take it.
