Over 75% of Fortune 500 companies, use psychometric/personality testing as part of their recruitment process, even though applicants really dislike taking these tests and can game them effectively.
With Vacancy Miner they don’t have to – as a seamless part of the application process we generate their personality profile from their image using our neural network, machine vision and advanced proprietary A.I. algorithms
Through A.I. and machine vision, we have taught our platform to read and interpret those same signals using a sample base of 200,000 tested subjects, 5 million photos and 100 million data endpoints.
Although the average duration of an interview is 40 minutes, recruiters say that they know within seconds whether the candidate is right for the company. As humans, we subconsciously process the data we read in another person’s face to arrive at our first impressions.
What we historically put down to instinct or intuition, has a scientific basis. We know that we inherit facial characteristics from our parents, we also know that we inherit personality traits, we even understand that the mechanism is genetic.
With the completion of the Human Genome project and the increasing affordability of genetic testing, there has been an extraordinary growth in molecular genetic studies of depression and other “complex” psychiatric phenotypes. Elsewhere research into mapping facial morphology using machine vision and advanced AI has resulted in a process of discovering new complex facial traits, which combined with the increasing knowledge on the impact of behaviour influencing hormones such as testosterone, SHGB and DHEAS on facial morphology, has resulted in the convergence of research which links facial morphology with personality traits.
