Overview
Personality Fit is a visual summary of how well a candidate aligns with your role based on their DISC+ assessment.
It helps you quickly understand whether a candidate’s behavioral traits and motivators match what success looks like in the role. DISC assessments measure personality traits across four dimensions: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness, which are used to align candidates with role requirements.
DISC+ assessments are included on every Wizehire plan tier!
Where to find Personality Fit
open a job from your dashboard
select a candidate who completed DISC+
click the Personality tab
What you’ll see
Personality Fit is broken into two sections:
Behavioral qualities
shows how a candidate naturally works and communicates
displayed using bar graphs
compared against the ideal range for the role (highlighted)
Motivators
shows what drives the candidate
includes indicators for alignment with the role:
✅ match
❌ not a match
How to interpret the results
Compare the candidate’s results to the highlighted ideal ranges
Look for alignment across both behavioral qualities and motivators- consider specific trait combinations that align with the role's demands, such as high Steadiness (S) and low Conscientiousness (C) for roles requiring consistency and adaptability
💡 Helpful note: Not every factor is weighted equally. A candidate may still be considered a strong fit even if they are slightly outside the ideal range in some areas. Additionally, a poor DISC result should not automatically disqualify a candidate if their experience and interview performance are strong.

Common Questions
Do candidates need to complete DISC+ to see Personality Fit?
Yes. Personality Fit is only available after the DISC+ assessment is completed.
What do the green and red indicators mean?
They show whether a candidate’s motivators align with the role.
Is Personality Fit the only factor I should consider?
No. It should be used alongside resumes, screening question responses, and interviews.
How are DISC profiles determined?
DISC profiles in Wizehire are tied to the job category you select, not the job title. Changing the job title will not affect the DISC profile associated with the role.d interviews. These three pillars—Personality Fit, Resume, and Interview—provide a comprehensive evaluation framework.
