Workplace Personality Inventory (WPI)

The Workplace Personality Inventory (WPI) is an innovative and flexible assessment based around sixteen key work styles, or work-related personality traits, shown to be important to job success in a wide range of occupations. In addition to the sixteen work styles, the WPI contains an “Unlikely Virtues” scale designed to identify individuals who present an overly favorable image of themselves in responding to questions.

Who is it for?

WPI is the ultimate personality test to screen many positions including;
