Personal Preferences Questionnaire
The Personal Preferences Questionnaire (PPQ) is a customized selection tool designed to help identify how well candidates' interests and expectations about work match what is offered in the job for which they are applying. The final tool contains a set of job characteristic pairs and candidates are asked to choose the job characteristic that they would most prefer to have in a job. One characteristic is relevant to the job, the other is not. However, both are equally desirable (or undesirable), so one answer will not be chosen simply because it's the most obvious or best choice.
