ORION Pre-employment Surveys

Successful organizations are those that efficiently and effectively select job applicants who will make a positive contribution. Assessing work-related attitudes before you hire is critical.

Pre-Employment Assessments

There are tools to help you hire the best applicants for your job openings. ORION SYSTEMS assessments provide job-relevant information crucial to the hiring decision. The ORION pre-employment assessment, a comprehensive opinion survey, is a simple form that job applicants fill out. It is designed to measure specific job-relevant attitudes and experiences regarding the following:

Supervision
Work Habits
Workplace Drug Use
Workplace Theft
Customer Service Sales
Communication
Competitiveness

The ORION pre-employment assessments contain a series of statements that applicants are asked to agree or disagree with on a scale of one to 10 (one totally disagrees and 10 totally agrees).

Most applicants will complete the survey in 20 minutes. Three levels of profiles on the applicant can be generated by the software, depending on the amount of detail you prefer. All applicant profiles offer a measure as to whether the applicant was attempting to disguise his/her true attitudes and behaviors.

In addition to the profile, ORION assessments include the Post-Survey Interview section which is based on each individual applicant's responses. Potential areas of concern can be probed in-depth to determine if a true problem exists or is, in reality, insignificant. Experienced interviewers save time with this format, while less experienced interviewers enjoy the advantages of a structured interview session.
