Most companies judge culture fit on instinct during an interview. Werkvolk measures it, scientifically, per team and per department, and uses that measurement in every match.

How it works
From instinct to measurement
1
Measure your culture
A short questionnaire based on the CVF and OCAI framework maps your culture across four dimensions. The more colleagues take part, the sharper the picture.
2
Create departments
The culture on the floor is rarely the culture in the office. You measure per department and compare the profiles side by side.
3
Link culture to your vacancy
Choose which team culture we match against. Candidates are measured against the team you are actually hiring for.
The gap analysis puts the culture as leadership sees it next to the culture as the team experiences it. The difference between those two is usually where turnover lives, and it is visible before you hire anyone.
Culture matching is part of your vacancy
Every active vacancy matches candidates on culture and personality at no extra cost. The measurement of your culture per team or department is included as well. Extended vacancy analytics is the only optional add-on.
Measure per department, with the shop floor included
You send a measurement out via a link, a QR code on the shop floor or a list of email addresses, and reminders go out automatically. The org tree shows culture per department as a heatmap.
Werkvolk sits in front of your ATS, not in its place. Whatever you use today stays exactly as it is.

The science behind it
Which archetype is your company?
The Competing Values Framework (CVF) is the most widely used model for company culture in the world. It measures four dimensions: Collaborate, Create, Compete and Control. After the measurement, you know exactly which of the 10 archetypes your organisation is.
Culture test, culture measurement and OCAI, explained
Measuring culture sounds vague until you know which instrument you are using. Werkvolk works with the Competing Values Framework by Quinn and Cameron and the OCAI methodology built on top of it. That is the same scientific frame academic research and HR consultants use, except here it sits inside the hiring process instead of in a report afterwards.
Culture test
A short questionnaire your team fills in. Within minutes you see which culture type dominates and where your team disagrees internally. The culture test is free and without obligation.
Culture measurement
The outcome of that test, per team and per department rather than one figure for the whole company. That way you measure the culture of the crew you are actually hiring for.
OCAI
Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument, the Quinn and Cameron instrument that splits culture into four types based on the CVF: collaborate, create, compete and control.
That culture measurement does not stand on its own. Werkvolk holds it against the personality profile of every candidate and uses the difference as part of the match, before you run the first interview.

Questions about culture
Find an answer quickly
Which model do you use?
The Competing Values Framework, the most widely used and scientifically validated model for company culture, together with its OCAI instrument. It measures four dimensions: Collaborate, Create, Compete and Control.
Does culture matching cost extra?
No. The culture measurement per team or department and the culture fit matching are included with every vacancy. Extended vacancy analytics is the only optional add-on.
How many colleagues need to take part?
You get a first picture immediately, and accuracy rises as more colleagues complete it. The dashboard shows which level you have reached and what the next one needs.
Are the answers anonymous?
Yes, completely anonymous. Only the aggregated result per team or department is visible to the company. Individual answers are never traceable. Each participant does receive a personal report with their own culture profile.
Do employees also receive a personal report?
Yes, each participant receives a personal culture report after completing the measurement: their own profile, how it fits within the company culture and what that means for them. The report becomes available once the full measurement is completed, so the comparison stays reliable.
Can I put management's culture next to the team's?
Yes. The gap analysis shows culture as the manager estimates it next to culture as the team experiences it. It is simply part of your measurement, like the per-department heatmap.
