    Personality tests are not a valid substitute for in-person interviews when hiring candidates, according to a letter to the editor of Business Week. While dating websites use personality tests with questionable validity, many companies are spending thousands on similar tests for hiring despite little evidence they are effective and opening themselves up to discrimination lawsuits. Proper vetting of candidates requires thorough in-person interviews using established techniques for evaluating people, not relying on impersonal personality tests.

    Personality Tests Are No Substitute For Interviews

    Business Week. New York: Nov 14, 2005. , Iss. 3959; pg. 23 I hope that everyone read the line "So far there's little evidence that personality profiling works" in "Better loving through chemistry" (Developments to Watch, Oct. 24). As a single person, I have experienced hilarious results with eHarmony. As a business/career coach and human resources consultant, I am horrified at the number of companies that are spending thousands of dollars and leaving themselves open to multimillion dollar discrimination lawsuits by using "personality tests" whose validity equals the tests used by these dating Web sites. If you can't be bothered to take the time to do a thorough job of vetting your candidates in person using known people-reading techniques, you don't deserve the title of manager.
