Private and public organizations have both utilized a number of pre-employment testing tools (or tests) over the years to select individuals for employment within their organization. For example, two of the more common tests are honesty and integrity tests and personality tests. Quite simply, the first of these two tests tries to exclude those

people who are not honest and who might be involved in theft from the organization, as well as to try to find those who would be compatible with other employees in the organization. Job personality, on the other hand, will test people against a series of personality dimensions like eroticism, extroversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness.
