Sound familiar?
You cannot afford to hire someone who burns out, no-shows, or fights the foreman in 90 days.
A resume will not tell you who stays on a hard site when the weather turns and the schedule slips.
The wrong foreman does not just fail. They take the crew with them.

The candidate takes a 10-minute assessment.
02See their drives
You see their motivational drives, not just skills.
03Hire with confidence
You hire, place, or develop knowing how they are wired.
What You'll Know Before Day One
The questions a resume cannot answer. The ones that decide whether someone lasts.
Will they stay locked in on repetitive, physical work, or are they already looking for the next thing?
Do they need a close, directive supervisor, or do they perform when you leave them alone?
How will they handle weather, rework, and a bad day on the site?
Are they wired to follow the plan, or will they freelance and create risk?
Will they last the season, or are they already halfway out the door?

Common questions
Is this legal to use in hiring?
Yes. Aptive Index is designed for hiring and people decisions and is built to support EEOC-aligned use. It measures behavioral drives, not protected characteristics.
What makes this different from a personality test?
Personality tests describe how someone likes to see themselves. Aptive Index maps motivational drives: what they need to stay engaged, how they handle pressure, and where they are likely to stall.
