"An excellent innovation for our company"

5/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

Wonderlic is able to accurately and quickly give us valuable insight on a potential candidate before we move forward with the hire. In my experience, the cognitive 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 analyze an individual and present this information 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 believe it has been a great help for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

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 cognitive score, perhaps dividing it into sections such as spatial, mathematics, and linguistic. I am excited to follow the continuous development of Wonderlic moving forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wonderlic solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wonderlic allows us to save time when it comes to scheduling and conducting interviews. When a position opens, we have a clear idea as to the personality that would be successful in the role. Similarly, we know how big the learning curve will be if we decide to hire someone with less experience. Having the candidates complete the Wonderlic beforehand allows us to better focus our time and resources for the right candidate. The insight is also very valuable when it comes to making a final decision and even for training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tool for helping in the hiring process"

2/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

Our company uses it as a tool in the hiring process. It helps evaluate cognitive, 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.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

It takes about 40 minutes 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.

"Very Interesting & Helpful Data!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

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.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wonderlic solving and how is that benefiting you?

Seeing and understanding things that we might be missing during our interview process. Helps us understand a person more who might perform really well in person interviews but when it comes to really doing the job or their personality - things that we might be missing face to face - this really helps us see those things that are hidden.

"Easy to use, sometimes issues with the website and lack of options at times"

4/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

It's very easy to add and remove assessments for different job titles. It's easy to review the results in three categories. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

Sometimes the data analytics options do not work. It would be nice if there was a third option in addition to hired and archived since we have candidates that we would have hired, but maybe they self-selected out of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Must Have Business Tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

There are a lot of pros to using Wonderlic. It has a good test to determine analytical, behavioral and motivational patterns for potential hires. The website is very user-friendly and it has a lot of data on if a candidate would be a good fit for our company or not. Wonderlic is used multiple times a week by our company and integration has been simple for new account users to work their way through the site with little help from the team or the customer support.

"Game Changer"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

Using Wonderlic has been a game changer for our company. We're able to quickly assess if a candidate would be a good fit for specific positions. I especially like the interview guide which shows us tips for onboarding success and questions to ask. It's very easy for the hiring team to use and understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

The only downside is I think some people get test anxiety over the cognitive portion. I consider that score as part of their assessment, but I also compare it with their job experience and education. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Assessment, Easy to Use"

4/5

What do you like best about Wonderlic?

The Wonderlic platform is easy to use and has an intuitive design. I love how you can setup job profiles and consolidate and compare results. The tool is easy to navigate and provides a nice user experience as well. Our reps are always responsive and available as well. We use this tool on a daily basis in the talent acquisition space as part of our prehire activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wonderlic?

We do not always get to use to the full test capability of the Wonscore due to how our organization uses the assessment. We rely primarily on the cognitive test, so we do not see the holistic view of the WonScore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
