The first section of the report speaks about the person's personality as per the Big 5 O.C.E.A.N theoretical framework.

Each OCEAN dimension is accompanied by definitions of behaviors typically seen at both the high and low ends of the spectrum. The percentage score represents where individuals fall on this scale:
​

For example at the Openness to Change scale:

The same interpretation applies to all five OCEAN dimensions. Higher percentages reflect stronger traits, while lower percentages indicate weaker traits (with the only exception being the Neuroticism dimension which is the exact opposite)For more detailed insights, they are also advised to explore the platform (the designated OCEAN section) as it includes specific behaviors associated with different score levels.

The second section contains your preferred working environment derived from the Holland Codes theory. In 1959, John Holland proposed an innovative approach regarding the measurement of vocational interests, characterized by the interweaving of the theory and the practice. This development of a theoretical, but extremely practical and useful self-scoring assessment of vocational interests, marked the shift in the career counseling professions, their perception of vocational choice theory, career measurements, research, and interventions. Since then, Holland’s theory of vocational personalities and work environments has been considered the hallmark of the development and evaluation of effective, valid, and evidence-based career interventions and assessments.

According to this theory, all individuals, their interests, and work environments can be classified into six types: Realistic (R), Investigative (I), Artistic (A), Social (S), Enterprising (E), and Conventional (C). All individuals have the tendency to choose and search for environments that fit their interests and personality; and that they would evade or leave from environments that they do not or just barely fit their interests.

The above highlights the importance of the fit and congruence between the personality and the environment, indicating that the fit between the personality and the surrounding environment is so crucial that affects and defines individuals’ behavior and well-being. Hence, the better the fit between the individual and the environment, the best the outcome in job performance, job retention, job satisfaction, and social behavior.

According to Holland, each individual may have an interest in all the aforementioned six types to some degree, creating thus a specific profile when combined. Based on that assumption Bryq has created 15 Bryq profiles, whereas each of them combines 2 Holland Types. The purpose of those 15 profiles is to be presented to the candidates following their participation in the Bryq assessment, in order to receive an overall idea of their results.
