Why one system works across every trade

The org chart repeats itself

Dispatch, apprentice, technician, crew lead, sales, and office operations show up in HVAC, plumbing, roofing, and electrical alike — the same six functions, different tools in hand.

Safety and reliability, weighted right

A crew lead and an apprentice need different things from the same six personality dimensions — the assessment reflects that, not a one-size-fits-all trades quiz.

Built to expand trade by trade

Each trade gets its own dedicated assessment, tuned to that trade’s actual scenarios — not a generic “trades” test wearing a different logo.

Questions employers ask

Which trades does VerticalFit cover?

HVAC, plumbing, roofing and electrical, with six roles in each, from CSRs and apprentices to crew leads, estimators and office managers. Each trade has its own roles and question bank.

How long does the assessment take?

About 15 to 20 minutes. Candidates answer 50 short statements about how they tend to work, plus one question about AI familiarity, on any device with no account needed.

How much does it cost?

$89 per month plus applicable sales tax for unlimited assessments if you subscribe by December 31, 2026, and that founding rate stays fixed while your subscription is active. New subscriptions after that are $119 per month. There are no per-candidate fees and no setup fee, and you can cancel anytime, effective at the end of the paid month.

Is it a personality test or a background check?

Neither. It is a structured questionnaire about work style, used as one input alongside an interview and reference checks. It is not a background check, not a medical or psychological evaluation, and never the sole basis for a hiring decision.

Is VerticalFit available to Texas contractors?

Yes. VerticalFit is offered to employers hiring for roles based in Texas. It is a structured questionnaire about work style, not a medical or psychological evaluation, and never the sole basis for a hiring decision, so use it alongside a structured interview and reference checks.

Who sees the results?

The report goes to your own results spreadsheet and is emailed to the recipient you designate, such as HR, a hiring manager or your COO. VerticalFit does not receive, see or store completed assessments.
