The Use of Handwriting Analysis in Recruitment
There are several psychological methods in practice which are used as Personality Tests during the recruitment process in an organization. The main drawback of these tests is the fact that a candidate who is aware that he or she is being tested is able to manipulate the responses in such a way as to give a favourable impression. Over the past two decades, human resource personnel have discovered the link between personality and handwriting and also the important fact that no matter how hard a candidate tries to alter his or her handwriting pattern it is not so difficult for a handwriting analyst to wean out the true personality traits of the writer.
A personality test through handwriting analysis is a very confidential method of verifying the true nature of an individual which even intensive reference checks may not establish. Each person has a distinct handwriting which makes it near impossible for him or her to modify. Even if a person tries to write in a different style, the basic trends will remain. These trends are what handwriting analysts study to connect the individuals’ personality and handwriting. Basis this analysis, the decision on recruiting a potential candidate is taken.
From the job-seekers point of view too, the use of handwriting analysis as a personality testis very helpful because it helps to keep them from getting into jobs which are not aligned to their personalities leading to a lot of conflict and unhappiness in the long run and at the same time it helps them to discover their true areas of expertise and alignment which translates into success.
In conclusion, we can say that those personality tests which are based on the premise that the handwriting and personality of an individual are closely inter-linked are truly the most effective ones for ensuring that the best possible candidate in all aspects is chosen for a job opportunity.
