Culture fit

Culture fit impacts performance, retention and teamwork

When employees align with your company’s values and team dynamics, they’re more likely to succeed and stay longer.


The numbers make it clear:

89% of new hires that fail do so because of a poor culture fit

Teams with strong cultural alignment report 30% higher engagement

Companies that hire for culture fit see up to 50% less early attrition

Our approach to culture fit is different by design

Bryq’s culture fit is built by our I-O psychology team using validated models like the Five-Factor Model (FFM) and Hofstede’s cultural dimensions. We combine structured psychometrics with your company’s defined values and culture traits to create a fully customized way to measure candidate alignment.

How it works

Culture fit can be defined and measured. Our team maps your company’s values and organizational traits to create a culture benchmark.

STEP 1

We map your culture

You define your values, and our psychologists map the behaviors they require, along with the traits behind them.

STEP 2

We build a culture benchmark

These traits are translated into a measurable profile—your culture benchmark—based on validated psychometric models.

STEP 3

You assess candidates

Candidates complete Bryq’s personality and cognitive tests as part of your hiring process.

STEP 4

We compare results

Bryq scores each candidate against your benchmark across three key areas, values alignment, behavioral traits and work preferences.

When to use it

What hiring teams do with culture fit insights

Avoid costly mis-hires

Use culture fit insights to flag strong résumés that might clash with how your team works.

Prevent attrition

Identify alignment issues before day one by comparing how candidates actually prefer to work, not just how they present themselves.

Decide between final candidates

When skills are equal, culture fit helps you see who’s likely to integrate best with the team.

Pair culture fit with skills tests to hire people who excel at the job and in the team

Culture fit tells you how someone works with others. Skills assessments show if they can pull their weight. Bryq tests both in one go.
