WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THESE PRE-HIRE ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS? INFORMED DECISIONS TAKE

Thanks to all participants (link to survey results in 1st comment).

So, should you ask your candidates about their color preferences.
The answer is NO.

Here is why:

1. Not predictive - there is no scientific proof that color preferences predict job performance.

2. Candidate experience - let’s say that color preferences were predictive of job performance, Is it worth the poor candidate experience? imagine a candidate for a sales, customer service, analytics or practically any other position encountering these questions in their assessment - what probably goes through their heads is: why are they asking me this? how is this actually related to the job I’m supposed to do.

3. Fairness - some people are just color blind.
