This Traitify the product makes me immediately suspicious. It asks candidates a few brief questions with images and assigns them personality and trait scores. Surely employers can’t think tools like this are good or accurate signals, right?
Most positions at McDonalds are entry-level and minimum wage. It’s not like they’re applying to NASA.
Well, as bee_rider pointed out somewhere in this thread, the new employees learn what personality they are suppose to fake. So maybe these tests are working better than we think. The lying might even psychologically trick these employees to actually behave that way, out of guilt.
A very large part of the population treats “minimum wage” as “maximum wage”.
Once you understand that, many behaviors make a lot of sense.
