STEP 1: TAKE CULTURE INDEX SURVEY

We use Culture Index as a behavioral assessment tool in the hiring process because it is accurate at predicting certain workplace behaviors that are required for success in a role. The survey is a short quiz taken online that helps us determine whether we would be a fit based on objective measurements. While only one of the factors we consider, we have found Culture Index to be very accurate and helpful to both the firm and candidates.
