What is Hogan personality assessment?
Hogan Assessment Systems is the world’s leading provider and developer of occupational personality assessment tools, which are currently used in more than 180 countries. Hogan’s clients are small companies as well as large corporations that are part of Fortune500, which need high-quality personality assessment tools with good psychometric indicators to use in both personnel selection and development.
Hogan’s test reports describe a person first and foremost through how others are likely to perceive him/her (reputation). As the results of the test taker are mainly described through professional competencies, the tests help to predict the performance of the work. Hogan’s tools are strongly oriented towards self-development.
Hogan assessment tools will help you to:
- understand your personality strengths and risks and increase self-awareness
- map your leadership potential and areas of development
- improve the quality of personnel selection
- make recruitment process more professional and transparent
- find sources of motivation for your team members
- discover your derailers that prevent you from achieving goals at work and in life

Hogan assessments FAQ
Hogan has over 30 years of experience providing assessments solutions for employee selection and development. Hundreds of validation studies demonstrate the extent to which the assessments predict performance. Organizations using Hogan rely on the tools to improve quality of hire, facilitate individual development, and enhance team effectiveness. As the traits measured by the Hogan tools are particularly salient in leadership, the assessment suite is widely used for leadership development from middle management to the executive level.
The Hogan assessment tools are available in over 50 languages and used by organizations in more than 150 countries. We work with organizations of all sizes – from small firms to Fortune 500 global companies in diverse industries, such as financial services, pharmaceuticals, retail, and consumer goods. One million personality assessments are processed every year and over 11 million people have completed our assessments. In Estonia Hogan Assessment Systems tools have been available since 2009.
Scores on the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI), Hogan Development Survey (HDS), and Motives, Values, Preferences Inventory (MVPI) should be interpreted in light of the individual’s current job context and future goals. There is no such thing as an ideal score or personality profile. Each individual’s assessment scores are likely to reveal some strengths and some potential challenges or risk factors.
Research shows that, within individuals, personality is relatively stable. Although an individual’s scores may fluctuate slightly over time, significant shifts in HPI and HDS scores are rare and may result from careless responding or increased self-awareness about Hogan scores. Because personality is stable, and because Hogan maintains norms to reflect current functioning, individuals need not re-take inventories.
