Wonderlic Reviews & Product Details

The Wonderlic Select assessment has helped our company place and hire top candidates for many years. Wonderlic's continuous improvements with helpful AI analysis of candidates' results in recent years has astronomically improved our hiring outcomes and I strongly believe that as our company continues to grow, we can expect to continue hiring great fits with Wonderlic's help.

One thing we've found is that we lack oversight of the automated communications that go out to candidates when we do a manual push or when we want to send re-tests. We would prefer to have control over what verbiage is sent out, to help improve the candidate experience, and to make their testing process feel less automated and more personalized.

I like that the system is easy to use and that the scores are interpreted for you with a summarized statement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the summaries ccan be a little vague. Otherwise, there isn't much I don't like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wonderlic is a comprehensive and intuitive way to evaluate the success of a potential hire. It doesn't just assess a person's personality but gives a well-rounded picture of what we can expect from them in terms of personality and performance. It's easy to administer and is customized for the position which they apply to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that I believe some of the questions on the "Motivation" section can be a bit redundant and not applicable to the position in which someone is applying to, so results are not always true to form. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enables the agency to administer cognitive testing virtually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that the system uses job applicant data to predict the success of other applicants in a given role. In my opinion, it should only use data from individuals who were actually hired for a given role or, even better, who have been serving in that role for at least a few years. Additionally, the personality feature needs to be recalibrated for law enforcement positions. If Wonderlic were to survey LE officers across the country, I can guarantee that "Enterprising" would not be their most dominant personality trait. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Candidates who follow through with the Wonderlic assessment are genuinely interested in the job and not just clicking a button to submit a resume with no effort. Customer support has been fantastic and the system is very easy to use. I have used the system on a continual basis for over 2 years now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would be helpful if we as the employer could actually read the job profile that is chosen based on key words we enter for the title. Would then be more reassuring that the job profile is actually a match with what we are recruiting for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The exam is a little lengthy so sometimes candidates don't complete it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wonderlic is able to accurately and quickly give us valuable insignt on a potential candidate before we move forward with the hire. In my experience, the coginitive thinking and personality portions of the assessment have been very accurate and reliable. Although it is not perfect, I am very impressed with how well it is able to analize an individual and present this informtion to us in a simple manner. The interface is easy to use and very well thought out. Candidates tend to have an easy time taking and completing the assessment as well. Overall, I am happy to have integrated Wonderlic into our hiring process and beleive it has been a great help for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My experience with Wonderlic has been great and there is not a single dislike on my end. As some constructive feedback, I would love the option to have a much shorter assessment if possible. Somewhere between 20 to 30 minutes max, perhaps focusing more on the personality and cognitive thinking scores. It would also be interesting to see more details on the congnitive score, perhaps dividing it into sections such spacial, mathmatics, and linguistic. I am excited to follow the continuos develpment of Wonderlic moving forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our company uses it as a tool in the hiring process. It helps evaluate congnitive, motivation and personality of the candidate to help make a more informed decision. It helps direct questions to candidates based on the results. The Wonderlic is very easy to use and implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes about 40 mintues for the candidate to complete so it is an investment of time on their part so we only send it to the top candidates. There is a timed math section and I think there are quite a few people that have test anxiety especially when it's timed. It would be much better if candidates could take their time on this section. I would prefer to give candidates an assessment that would be a little quicker overall. I also don't think the results always are very accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It shows a lot of things about a person that you might be missing during an interview. It really helps to pin point what questions you should be narrowing in more on than others. It is really cool too to see the correlation between the results and when meeting in person! It is really easy to use and understand. Customer service is fantastic if you have questions. It is also great how much you can use this for in your process such as interviewing, training, communicating with others. We started using this with our corporate hires but it has been so helpful we now brought it out to our site teams! It is a pretty cool system to use and we use it with almost all of our candidates now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not fool proof! It is hard for those that have already taken the assessment who know how to cheat their way around saying the right answers. It also seems hurtful to those who are neurodivergent or how it affects those in different groups such as age diversity. It certainly can provide skewed results so it is definitely not something to heavily rely on and more so something the lean on to expand your understanding of a person.
