Stop Wasting Time on High-Risk Candidates
The IntegrityFirst Assessment Test is a fast, overt behavioral screening tool that helps hiring teams disqualify high-risk applicants before the interview. Designed using the psychological principle of cognitive dissonance, the test prompts candidates to reveal risky behaviors such as theft, substance abuse, and dishonesty—even when directly asked.
Why does it work? Candidates engaged in ongoing misconduct often normalize those behaviors. This test makes it easy to flag them—and filter them out early.
