| The
Employee Screening Questionnaire (ESQ)
The Employee Screening Questionnaire (ESQ) is a
personality-based selection assessment that examines job candidate's
work ethic and dependability. The ESQ predicts future job performance
including an applicant's probable job commitment, risk of engaging
in counterproductive work behaviors, and the propensity for positive
work behaviors. The ESQ contains 27 forced-choice items and takes
approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
The ESQ was designed to reduce the tendency to
"fake good" though its innovative use of a forced-choice
format. The efficacy of this approach has been supported by research
literature.
The ESQ is designed to reduce both voluntary and
involuntary turnover, theft, and absenteeism by eliminating high-risk
applicants and is suitable for use in broad range of pre-employment
assessment situations.
