For in-house TA + agency recruiters

Better interviews. Fewer bad hires. No $400/mo TestGorilla invoice.

Send DISC, Big Five, and EQ with every candidate screen. Structure interviews around real data. Catch mismatches before the offer. Free to try, $79/mo for volume.

In Brief

JobCannon provides recruiters and talent teams with 50+ free and low-cost assessments for candidate screening, structured interviewing, and hiring-decision support. Core screeners: DISC (5 min, communication style), Big Five (15 min, OCEAN trait profile), EQ (emotional intelligence and leadership potential), RIASEC (Holland Codes for career-fit), Conflict Styles (team compatibility), and Values Assessment (culture fit). Pricing starts at $0 (5 invites) and scales to $79/mo (100 invites) or $199/mo (500 invites + white-label + API). Competing tools: TestGorilla ($83-650/mo), Criteria Corp ($400+/mo), SHL ($15-40/candidate), and Predictive Index ($5-15k/year). Our tests are self-report, research-validated, and take 5-15 minutes. Use cases include first-round screening, panel-interview prep, culture-fit verification, and team-compatibility checks for lateral hires.

Where recruiters plug this into the funnel

Four plays, each takes <10 minutes of recruiter time per candidate.

Post-Screen Assessment
After the first recruiter phone screen, send DISC + Big Five in the thank-you email. Hiring manager gets the results before the panel interview. Interview questions are now anchored in real data, not vibes.
Panel Interview Prep
Paste the candidate's Big Five result into the panel's shared doc. Each interviewer gets a trait-specific probe list. Panels align on signal, not on who talked loudest.
Culture-Fit Verification
Values Assessment + Conflict Styles. Compare candidate scores to the team's aggregated DNA. Spot the "brilliant jerk" before the hire — or the quiet high-potential the hiring manager almost overlooked.
Lateral / Internal Move
Internal candidate eyeing a new role? RIASEC + career-match + work-style assessment. Data-driven retention conversation beats "we'll see how it goes".

FAQ

How do I send a test to a candidate?

Copy the assessment link (e.g., jobcannon.io/assessments/disc) and paste it into your follow-up email or ATS template. Candidate takes the test anonymously in 5-15 minutes. They can optionally email the result PDF or share a link with you. On the Team tier ($79/mo) you can invite candidates directly and see their results in a shared dashboard.

Is this legally safe to use in hiring?

Yes — with two caveats. (1) Never reject solely on personality test score. In the US, EEOC guidance and in the EU, GDPR Article 22 both restrict automated-decision hiring. Personality tests are legally a "screening aid" — the decision must be human. (2) Apply the same test to every candidate at the same stage. Selective testing creates a disparate-impact risk. Our tests are self-report (not clinical), validated (Big Five, DISC, Holland Codes), and meet the typical standard for pre-employment "non-selection" assessments used alongside interviews.

How does this compare to TestGorilla or Criteria Corp?

TestGorilla starts at $83/month for their Starter plan and charges per assessment type. Criteria Corp starts around $400/month and is geared toward mid-market. JobCannon is $0-79/mo and bundles all 56 assessments — personality (DISC, Big Five, MBTI), cognitive-adjacent (EQ, critical thinking screeners), career-interest (RIASEC, career-match), and wellbeing (burnout risk). TestGorilla has stronger skills-testing (coding, typing, language proficiency); we do not — we focus on personality and career-fit. Use TestGorilla for skills + us for personality, or pick one if the overlap is enough.

Can I integrate with my ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby)?

Business tier ($199/mo) includes API access — you can pull candidate results into your ATS. Native integrations (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday) are on the Enterprise tier. If your ATS is not listed, we build integrations for Enterprise customers on request. For now, most recruiters paste the link into the email template and attach the result PDF to the candidate record manually — works fine under ~50 hires/month.

Do candidates hate taking tests?

Short, well-designed ones: no. Long, branded, surveilled ones: yes. The 5-minute DISC test has >80% completion among the founders we work with. The 15-minute Big Five sits around 65-75%. To maximise completion: (a) send after a first-round call (candidates who are engaged will finish), (b) tell them upfront how long it takes, (c) promise they will see their own results (they care about this more than you might think). Never send 4 tests at once before a human call — that is the kill-shot for candidate experience.

Can I white-label the candidate experience?

Business tier ($199/mo) — your logo on PDF reports. Enterprise tier — custom-branded test landing page on your domain, SSO for internal recruiters, SLA. Mid-size agencies and RPO firms typically land on Business; enterprise recruiting teams doing 500+ hires/year land on Enterprise.
