Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ)
by SHL South Australian & Northern-Territory Partner, Cream of the Crop
The Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ) is internationally recognised for its accurate assessment of individual styles and preferences at work. As a part of a broader recruitment process, the OPQ provides valuable additional information to assist in the assessment of person-job fit. It provides HR and line managers with objective and critical information on those aspects of behaviour that cannot be measured by other techniques, yet are crucial to successful work performance.
Used by thousands of organisations across Australia, the OPQ has demonstrated value in predicting job performance, minimising the risk of incorrect selection decisions and maximising developmental outcomes for people.
