Assessments as Unique As You

Most vendors believe in a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to assessing talent. You get all of their standard competencies, in their language, or nothing at all.

HIGHMATCH IS DIFFERENT.

Our Workplace Psychologists understanding your challenges, goals, and the unique elements of your roles and culture.

We then create a personalized assessment, built to only measure candidates against personality traits that matter most using your preferred language and competency model.

Our team of workplace psychologists will partner with you to define those, build a personality test that measures them and provide a report back that rates each candidate against those measures using your company’s language, which improves hiring manager adoption.
