Applications
The personality data that drives every decision.
Talent Acquisition
Use Conscientiousness and Neuroticism as screening filters before final interviews. Generate personality-based interview probes automatically. Predict culture fit through Agreeableness and Extraversion profiling.
Leadership Development
Identify the personality profile behind high-performing leaders in your organisation. Build development plans that work with, not against, natural personality strengths. Target the facets that most limit leadership effectiveness.
Team Composition
Map the OCEAN profile of a team. Identify cognitive style gaps — a team all high in Openness but low in Conscientiousness produces brilliant ideas that never ship. Build teams with complementary profiles.
Change Readiness
High Openness and low Neuroticism predict change readiness at the individual and team level. Use Big Five data to predict where change initiatives will meet resistance before they launch.
Career Counselling
Give individuals the most honest, evidence-based picture of their natural strengths and the roles where they will flourish. No type labels — a nuanced, facet-level development conversation.
Combined Assessment
Pair Big Five with DISC (behavioural style), EQ (emotional intelligence) and Competency Assessment for the most complete picture of a person. One platform — seven instruments — one integrated report.
What HR Leaders Say
Trusted by India’s leading organisations
★★★★★
“The facet-level detail is what separates this from every other personality tool we’ve used. Two candidates with the same Conscientiousness score but completely different Orderliness and Achievement facets — the Big Five report saw that.”
Nandita Krishnan
Talent Acquisition Lead · Netapp India
★★★★★
“We built our first data-driven succession model using Big Five + Competency Assessment together. The Conscientiousness + Low Neuroticism + High Openness combination predicted our top performers better than any 9-box we’d done manually.”
Rajan Mehta
Head People Strategy · Volvo India
★★★★★
“I use the Work Context Fit report with every coaching client before our first session. It shapes the entire engagement. The AI narrative is the best one-page personality brief I’ve ever put in front of a board-level leader.”

FAQ
Everything you need to know
What is the Big Five personality assessment?
+
The Big Five personality assessment measures five core dimensions — Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism (OCEAN) — that predict behaviour, performance and relationships at work. The AXIS360 Big Five uses 120 IPIP-validated items across 30 facets with Indian professional norms and AI-written development reports.
What is the OCEAN personality model?
+
OCEAN is the acronym for the Big Five dimensions: Openness to Experience, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism. It is the most scientifically validated personality framework, replicated across 50+ cultures and backed by 40 years of research in industrial-organisational psychology.
How much does a Big Five personality test cost in India?
+
The AXIS360 Big Five starts at ₹2,999 per person for a full report including 5 factors, 30 facets, AI narrative and work context fit analysis. Team plans from ₹15,000/month. 5 free reports at assess.nonverbals.com — no credit card required.
How long does the Big Five assessment take?
+
12–18 minutes. 120 items on a 5-point Likert scale (International Personality Item Pool format), accessible from any device. Reports are generated immediately on completion — no waiting, no manual scoring.
Is the Big Five better than MBTI or DISC?
+
The Big Five is the most empirically validated personality framework available — peer-reviewed, cross-culturally replicated and directly linked to job performance in meta-analytic research. MBTI produces types (16 boxes) that don’t predict job performance. DISC measures behavioural style. The three serve different purposes; AXIS360 combines all of them on a single platform.
Does Conscientiousness actually predict job performance?
+
Yes — it is the single strongest personality predictor of job performance across all occupational groups, validated in hundreds of studies over 40 years. High Conscientiousness predicts reliability, goal-directedness, discipline and follow-through. The AXIS360 Big Five measures Conscientiousness across six facets for maximum hiring precision.
