Some minutes b4 I posted my last comment. I feel pwc should have just made this personality test the first stage. Instead of putting candidates through an online shl test and another at their office. Would have been a lot better to get this mail after application than at this stage especially wen it's something u really can't pin point what u did wrong to even improve on sef. Sorry for d long talk. I'm just feeling bad

I might be able to help here, as I have been in the recruitment scene for a while now.

The personality test is simply a test to figure out if your personality traits are in line with the ideal PwC person; innovative, outspoken, gregarious, team player and honest, etc.

Because of the kind of role they play as consultants, being extroverted and focused is a major trait they look for, that's where the personality test comes to play. They check to see if you can relate well with people, help others, respect their views, etc while voicing your opinions and going with what you think is right even if you hate it or everyone tells you you're wrong.

If a substantial amount of your answers contradict what they want, it deems you unlikely to fit in the firm.

Personality tests also take account of time. They expect you to select a choice from reflex, as that is a great indication of your actions. When you spend time thinking of a scenario, they get the impression you are trying to cheat the system.

Next time you are taking a personality test, try to understand what the firm values and considers important, as their answer key is based ENTIRELY on the firm's values and ethics, not on what you think is right.

Could that be why I haven't got AC invite from NSE yet? Actually, I delayed because I was interrupted by an urgent call, long phone call.

I don't think the personality test should consider time though.

I know right, but personality tests are more expensive to administer compared to psychometrics. It is more expensive because the questions are tailored specifically for each firm. The marking guide is unique and different with each firm as well. Basic assessments work one size fits all, so the questions can be recycled for other firms too and the answers are either right or wrong.For personality tests, there is no right or wrong. Taking the PwC personality test as an example, there are 936 possible answers. This kind of assessment requires more effort and thinking and as such costs more.

It will cost the firm a few extra zeroes if personality test is done at the onset considering the large number of applicants.
