ORION™

Orion™ Pre-Employment Opinion Survey

The Orion™ Opinion Survey provides accurate, valid and illuminating insight, free from adverse impact. It examines job-related attitudes your applicants will bring with them to the work environment including attitudes toward work, supervision, drug use, theft, customer service and safety.

Assessments That Measure Undesirable Attitudes Make Sense

The Reason

Up to 80% of turnover is due to mistakes in hiring.
Employee theft costs businesses billions each year.
Costs for drug-related absenteeism, health and worker compensation costs are in excess of $50 billion dollars a year.
Hiring, training and getting an hourly worker productive costs 15 – 40% of their annualized wage.
Not all applicants are right for the job. Some have trouble with tardiness, absenteeism or supervision. Others have theft and drug problems, poor customer service attitudes.

Organized in three parts, the Orion™ PE profile contains information vital to selecting the best possible applicant – specifically related to integrity of the person.

Attitudinal Scales Section

This section of the profile contains valuable information pertaining to your applicant’s attitudes in a number of key areas of concern including supervisory relationships, work attitudes, workplace theft, drug use, prospect for long term employment, safety, and risk avoidance. In addition, a Validity Index advises the interviewer of the existence of distortion, (the applicant’s conscious or subconscious attempt to alter the results of the survey) by placing the applicant in a risk zone of Low, Marginal or High Risk.

Self Assessment Section

Self assessments are derived from responses to questions dealing with specific things the applicant has done in previous jobs and to questions that determine what work activities the applicant likes or dislikes. This section of the profile identifies critical areas to probe during the interview.

Post Survey Interview Section

Each profile contains a list of questions from the assessment that the applicant didn’t respond to in the most desirable manner. This section of the profile suggests specific questions that should be covered thoroughly during the follow-up interview. The Post Survey Interview Section will make novice interviewers better and help experienced interviewers conduct thorough interviews quickly.
