The APQ Sales Assessment

What it is, and how it delivers amazing scientific insight on your team & potential hires.

The Sales assessment is a series of 81 questions designed to pull a person's scores, on a scale of 1-100, for each one of the primary personality traits and secondary trait mapping. Those scores are then overlaid on a chart that highlights specific ranges within each trait where success was found most often for that specific position.

How Our Sales Assessment Works

After completing the APQ, the participant will receive their Primary Trait Scores on a scale of 1-100. Each primary trait score is compared to the ideal (green) ranges for a specific role. Each role will have different ideal ranges for each trait. The participants Role Aptitude Score is determined by how often their primary trait scores are in the green ideal ranges.

There are over 20 roles included in the APQ ranging from sales, administrative and management positions. By taking the APQ one time, a participant will receive a Role Aptitude Score for every position, giving them insight into their natural talent for each role.
