The Assessment

Measure ability, not adjectives.

Five scenario games, nineteen minutes, one score. A game-based alternative to self-report personality tests, for hiring, career services and internal mobility.

01Why not a personality test

Self-report tests ask how you see yourself. We watch what you do.

Traditional psychometrics

Self-report answers can be shaped by wanting to look good, by coaching, and by how comfortable someone is describing themselves.

The Wells assessment

Scenario games ask for real decisions under realistic constraints. Scores come from the choices people make, not from how they describe themselves.

02Five games, nineteen minutes

What the assessment measures.

GAME 01

Scenario Judgement

Presents realistic workplace dilemmas with competing priorities. Measures how candidates weigh trade-offs, allocate limited resources, and commit under ambiguity.

GAME 02

Pattern Reasoning

Adaptive sequences that increase in complexity. Measures working memory, fluid reasoning, and the speed of accurate pattern recognition without domain knowledge.

GAME 03

Collaboration Sim

A simulated team environment where information is distributed. Measures how candidates share, integrate others' input, and adapt their approach to shifting group dynamics.

GAME 04

Adaptive Communication

Requires conveying complex information to different audiences. Measures clarity, conciseness, and the ability to adjust register without losing meaning.

GAME 05

Ethical Dilemma

Confronts candidates with conflicting obligations and stakeholder pressures. Measures principled reasoning, consistency of values, and willingness to act on difficult conclusions.

03Who uses it

Built for three buyers.

Employers

Add the assessment to your hiring process and see how every candidate handles the same five scenarios, not just how well they interview.

Career services

Colleges and universities can use the assessment to show students their strengths in a form they can share with employers alongside their transcript.

Internal mobility

Existing employees demonstrate capability for new roles without relying on manager nominations or tenure. Performance speaks louder than politics.

04The score report

One number, five dimensions.

Every candidate receives a composite score from 0 to 100, built from five sub-scores. Employers see the same report for every applicant, with each score explained in plain language.

05Fairness & privacy

A score starts a conversation. It never decides.

The assessment shows how someone handled five realistic situations. What happens next is a conversation with a person.

A person decides

Scores inform an interview or a coaching conversation. No one is hired, rejected or labelled by the score alone.
