Your assessment questions, answered

Are there right or wrong answers?

No. The questionnaire measures your preferences at work. Answer honestly and consistently rather than trying to look ideal for every role.

How does the questionnaire work?

Rate four statements per block on a five-point scale. If you give the same rating twice, you put those statements in order. There is no time limit and no way back to a previous block.

Is it free to take?

Yes. You can take the full Dimensions Personality questionnaire for free. Full Access unlocks your results at the end.

Where are my answers kept?

Your answers are kept on the device you use for the questionnaire. If you upgrade on another device, sign in on the original device to see your profile.

Is this an official Korn Ferry report?

No. This is an independent practice profile, not an official Korn Ferry report. It helps you become familiar with the questionnaire and how a profile can be presented.

How long does it take?

Allow 20–25 minutes. There is no time limit in this practice questionnaire. Your employer's invitation and official instructions determine the requirements for your actual assessment.
