See who you’re really hiring
Paste the candidate’s email, pick the tests, send the link. They get the email, click through, land on a quick intro, and answer — one tap per question, right from their phone. Then the real person shows up: strengths, watch-outs, every score. Pick the role, see where they fit, and what to ask. JobCannon for hiring. Five free assessments every month.

JobCannon provides 201 assessments for lending teams hiring loan officers, account managers, underwriters, servicers, and new-to-industry candidates. The lending-relevant battery: DISC for behavioural fit (origination vs underwriting), Big Five for Conscientiousness signal (compliance roles), Conflict Styles for borrower-escalation handling, EQ for customer-facing roles, Values for culture alignment. Pricing is flat per organisation: free tier with 5 assessments to try the dashboard; Team at $79/mo for 80 assessments a month and the org dashboard; Scale at $199/mo adds white-label PDFs and the Assessment API to embed the battery in your own hiring flow (Encompass, Calyx, LendingPad, or any ATS) and store scored results against each candidate. Compared to Predictive Index (annual platform licence), Caliper Profile (per candidate), or Hogan (per candidate), JobCannon is structurally cheaper because the price is flat per organisation rather than per candidate. Typical use: 7-minute battery (DISC + Big Five C + Conflict Styles) sent before the second interview.
Plans for lending teams
Free (5 assessments) for the first few hires. Team ($79/mo, 80 assessments) for a typical branch or origination team. Scale ($199/mo) when you need ATS API + white-label reports.

Tests work instantly — no form needed. For Encompass/Calyx/LendingPad pulls, white-label PDFs, or a custom validation study for a specific role:
Yes — when used correctly. Big Five and DISC are workplace-relevant personality measures, not protected-class proxies, and US case law (Griggs v. Duke Power, Albemarle v. Moody) is clear that personality tests are usable in hiring as long as they are job-relevant, applied consistently, and one factor among several. We are not a sole-criterion screening tool: use results alongside interviews, work samples, and reference checks. Document your reasoning. If you need formal validation evidence for a specific role, contact us — we can help build a job-analysis backed selection report.
Lending roles split cleanly along the DISC axes: a high-D high-I profile typically thrives in business development and origination; high-S high-C profiles dominate in underwriting, servicing, and compliance. Hiring a high-D into a compliance role or a high-C into an aggressive origination role is the single most predictable reason for first-year turnover in this industry. One minute of DISC at the interview stage flags this before you spend three months training someone who will quit.
That is exactly the use case we hear most from federal credit unions, small banks, and non-bank lenders. New-to-industry candidates do not have a track record to read — personality assessment gives you a signal on conscientiousness (Big Five C), stress tolerance (Big Five N inverted), and behavioural style (DISC) that resume screening cannot. Combine DISC + Big Five Conscientiousness + Conflict Styles for a 7-minute battery that surfaces the candidates worth interviewing.
The Assessment API on the Scale tier lets you run the assessment inside your own hiring flow and attach the scored result to the candidate via the external_user_id you pass — a three-call REST API (start, questions, complete) with X-API-Key auth. You render the questions in your UI and store the returned result_id/scores against your candidate record. We do not write back to your LOS (intentionally — keeps the audit trail clean).
GDPR compliant, SOC 2 in progress, infrastructure on Supabase (AWS us-east). Candidates can take tests anonymously; results are tied to an org only when they accept your magic-link invite. We do not sell or share individual data with third parties. For state lending regulators (CA DFPI, NY DFS, TX OCCC) the test results are not part of the regulated underwriting record — they sit in your HR system, not your loan file.
Predictive Index is an annual platform licence plus per-assessment costs, and requires consultant certification. Caliper Profile is priced per candidate. Our equivalents (DISC + Big Five + Conflict Styles) use the same underlying constructs — the cost difference is structural: the price is flat per lending team rather than per candidate. The trade-off: we do not provide consultant-led debriefs or custom validation studies. For most lending shops under 200 hires/year, the $79/mo Team plan covers the actual workflow.
