Dear Thunderbird,
So as to do a personality test, one has to be certified to do so coz in that way one learns how to interpret the results and make it useful for the participants.
Following are some of the assessments that can be done:
1. MBTI
2. FIRO B
3. 16 PF
4. PAPI
5. DISC
A certification would always help as some of these tests are based on our current personality traits and others are based on the traits one wishes to acquire (Ideal Traits).

There is also another test called the WorkPlace Big Five which is designed specifically for the WorkPlace. It is based on the Five Factor Model which is widely accepted in the industry.

COOLTHUNDERBIRD:: >>I am willing to do a personality test for the freshers who are joining my company.>> you are willing to do a personality test?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! are you a qualified psychometrician??!!! and I am surprised that people are responding so casually....though this issue has been raised a number of times on CHR....
Buddy ensure that you are qualified to administer it and buy the tests...!!!

Coolthunderbird, be careful, some of the assessments suggested are Ipsative which means the results should not be used to compare people, i.e., should not be used for employee selection. If we assess for personality only we may well hire a good personality fit but not necessarily a good job fit. There is much more to job success than personality.

I would request citehr to remove all the psychometric questionnaires available on the site. As people are using them without being qualified to do so.

Hello friends
looks like people have taken Psychometric tests for granted. Its not so easy as it appears to assess personality using a PT. one should be qualified and skilled to assess personality and match them with the job. Pls take help from Psychologist for assessment dont just do it yourselves. Professionals are trained at (Minimum )masters level .
All the Best
