How Our Psychometrics Work

Our psychometric assessment merges historical theories and contemporary psychology to reveal the complex tapestry of human personality, skills, and behaviours in the workplace.

Foundations & Psychological Basis

Based on Carl Jung's theories and Greek philosophical insights, our system categorises cognitive preferences into four colours.

This framework helps understand individual tendencies and optimise conditions for workplace success.

The Experts Behind The Test

Vizzy’s psychometric assessment is designed by our expert personality profiling partner Clarity 4D.

Clarity 4D has built a British Psychological Society registered test which they have used within organisations including the United Nations, NHS, Hotel Chocolat, Serco and the Metropolitan Police.

Cognitive Preferences Breakdown

Red - Extraverted Thinking: Action-oriented, logical, and decisive. Ideal for leadership, strategy, and operational roles.
Yellow - Extraverted Feeling: Interpersonal and empathetic, excelling in team morale and customer relations. Perfect for roles in negotiation and motivation.
Green - Introverted Feeling: Reflective and value-driven, key in HR and creative roles requiring empathy and patience.
Blue - Introverted Thinking: Analytical and strategic, excelling in technical and financial roles requiring precision and meticulousness.

Interpreting The Results:

Each preference brings a unique set of skills and perspectives to a team, and when managed correctly, can lead to a high-performing and innovative workplace.

The percentage scores reveal candidates' decision-making styles and behaviours. This can help decision-making around team composition, leadership development, and conflict resolution.
