At Global Dating Insights read the article
eHarmony Launching Job Service This Year

but ...for matching job seekers with employers, the best predictor of job performance is always: personality!!!

The Wall Street Journal had published an interesting article about Xerox
"When looking for workers to staff its call centers, Xerox Corp. used to pay lots of attention to applicants who had done the job before. Then, a computer program told the printer and outsourcing company that experience doesn't matter. The software said that what does matter in a good call-center worker—one who won't quit before the company recoups its USD5,000 investment in training—is personality.


The same to detect real entrepreneurs for false entrepreneurs.



eHarmony is a 13+ years old obsolete site and a HOAX, based on a big scientific fraud. The same for sites like them, like Chemistry, another fraud in the Online Dating Industry.
The Big Five normative test that had been proven/revealed as an incomplete and incorrect model to assess/measure personality of persons.
The Big Five normative test had been replaced by HEXACO or Big Six test.

and also normative tests can not simply be translated, because they need the norm for that test, and that norm is actualized each and every time Census Figures are released and the cost of doing that is in the range of USD100,000 per language and norm.

All normative tests like Big Five, HEXACO, 16PF5 or similar like 15FQ+ to assess/measure personality should be used with the correct norm. e.g:
* English for the United Kingdom and the Norm for the United Kingdom (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of the United Kingdom).
* English for Ireland and the Norm for Ireland (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of Ireland).
* English for Australia and the Norm for Australia (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of Australia).
* English for New Zealand and the Norm for New Zealand (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of New Zealand)
* English for Canada and the Norm for Canada (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of Canada).
* English for South Africa and the Norm for South Africa (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of South Africa).
* English for United States and the Norm for United States (sample of individuals with the same demographic characteristics of United States)


Online Dating sites have very big databases, in the range of 20,000,000 (twenty million) profiles,  the BIG Five model or the HEXACO model are not enough for predictive purposes. That is why I suggest the 16PF5 test.
