Built for multi-unit franchise systems
Screen prospective franchisees before the contract, then hire crews and pick dealers — one flat plan per system.
DISC, Big Five, and Values assessments for both decisions: who gets awarded a franchise, and who gets hired to run it day to day. Flat-priced per system rather than per applicant, so a growing location count doesn't multiply your bill.
In Brief
Franchise systems use JobCannon for two separate decisions on one account: screening prospective franchisees before a contract is signed, and hiring the crews and store managers who run locations day to day. Franchisee screening looks at work style, resilience, and values fit with the brand using DISC, Big Five, and Values assessments — the same instruments, run before the contract stage, never as the sole basis for an award decision.
Crew and location-manager hiring runs the standard candidate screen through the same account, with results scoped so a location owner sees only their own candidates while the franchisor sees the whole system. Pricing is flat per system rather than per applicant or per seat — most multi-location franchisors land on $199/mo Scale for API access into a franchise-management system, or $999/mo Growth for higher volume across many locations.

No — two different decisions on the same platform. Franchisee screening runs before a contract is signed, looking at work style, resilience under variable income, and values fit with the brand (DISC, Big Five, Values). Crew and store-manager hiring is the standard candidate screen you'd run for any hourly or supervisory role. Both draw from the same test library and the same franchisor account, but they're separate cohorts with separate reports — a franchisee's result never gets compared against a crew applicant's.
You pay one plan for the franchisor account rather than a per-applicant fee that scales against every prospective owner and every crew hire across every location. That matters for a system running dozens of locations, each hiring independently — a per-seat or per-candidate vendor charges you every time, flat pricing doesn't. Franchisors typically land on $199/mo Scale (API access, so results can flow to a franchise-management system) or $999/mo Growth for higher volume across many locations.
Yes, with a shared results dashboard visible to the franchisor and scoped access for each location owner. This is the same team-seat mechanic used for any multi-location employer — a location owner sees their own candidates, the franchisor sees the whole system.
Treat it the same as any pre-employment or pre-contract screen: never as the sole basis for a franchise-award decision, and run the same instrument on every applicant in the same evaluation stage. Our instruments are self-report, not clinical, and are a screening aid alongside financial qualification and interviews — not a replacement for either.
Neither is built around a franchisor account with location-scoped access — they price per seat or per assessment type, which multiplies against every location in a system. JobCannon runs one flat plan across the franchisor account, with DISC, Big Five, and Values covering both franchisee screening and crew hiring; we do not do skills or technical testing.
