Precise information forbetter recruitment

LVA-i HR integrity assessment systems

LVA-i is an interactive evaluation platform using Nemesysco’s LVA7 technology for voice analysis, designed to assist management with their decision making process by providing accurate, unbiased and readily available information. LVA-i measures the emotional content and the “integrity risk” potential of a person being tested in various topics, allowing the tested parties to express themselves freely in a natural speaking form and in the language they are most comfortable with. The system supports both fully automated computerized testing, as well as operator assisted over-the-phone examination of remote parties using scripted protocols.

Looking for repeating indications - Illustration

LVA-i uses a structured questioning methodology and analyzes free speech answers (Not “Yes/No”) to generate an overall Risk Report per tested topic, based on plurality of repeating indications identified in the relevant questions. This analysis model ensures highly accurate information to be used in the follow-up interview.

The LVA-i test report includes a clear and easy to understand Integrity Risk score for each of the tested topics, with additional values and warnings that can be used as supportive indications for the eventual follow-up interviews.

Made to fit all sizesLVA-i is a scalable system available in d i fferent conf igurat ions, designed to support any size and type of organization, from SMB’s to multi-national scale networks, from special units to armed forces and police recruitment, from a stand-alone unit to multi-sites server based solutions.

What is an Integrity Test?Integrity tests attempt to measure

the potential and personal

acceptance of undesired or unlawful behaviors. LVA-i’s Integrity Risk result reflects the probable risk of the tested party acting in a manner that might expose your organization to danger.

LVA-i integrates unique voice analysis technology with carefully designed sets of investigative questions to identify repeating emotional indications surrounding relevant questions to produce its assessment. The system’s standard questionnaires are specifically designed to scan the candidates’ personal history, test the consistency of their opinions at present and determine the level of their commitment to the future.

LVA-i tests modes & scripts

LVA-i can perform a test intwo modes of operation:

In the • Automated Test mode the candidate is seated in a quiet room

in front of the LVA-i computer terminal. Using the screen and the LVA-i

phone-like handset, the system will present the selected questionnaire,

automatically advancing to the next question once a proper voice

response was recorded.

In the • Telephone Test mode an operator will assist the test procedure

with a remote party, reading the script’s questions from his screen.

Automated Test mode Telephone Test mode

The LVA-i package contains several standard employment scripts for both the phone and the automated modes. These scripts contain questions in the classical and most relevant topics (theft, drug abuse, etc.). Custom made scripts can be created as needed.

The LVA-i test report is automatically generated using the analysis of the subject’s responses to the scripted questions in the different topics.

LVA-i automated questionnaires are based on Adobe Flash™ technology, providing flexible, rich multi-media presentation and advanced options in creation of unique questionnaires. Each questionnaire is divided into different topics, each containing a number of questions covering a specific issue. The questions are presented to the candidates both textually and vocally one after the other.

The standard tests contain the following topics:

Confidentiality and Secrecy•

Theft from Place of Employment•

Credibility and Criminal •

Tendencies

Bribery and Kickbacks•

Fraud and Deceit•

Drug Usage•

Alcohol Usage•

Gambling•

Conducting an automated test -step by stepPreparing the applicant for the test Before any test procedure, it is

important the tested party receives full instructions about the test procedures and objectives. Test candidates are provided with a “consent form” explaining the topics and nature of questions to be asked, and allow the candidate to ask any clarification questions or even quit.

Step 2: The candidate enters the examination room and sits in front of the LVA-i monitor. The operator explains the test procedure and leaves the room, allowing the candidate to complete the test in privacy.

Step 3: The candidate selects the test language from the available set and confirm his personal details. As the test progresses, the candidate has to answer a series of questions, one after the other.

Step 4: Once the test has been completed, the candidate leaves the room and the LVA-i returns to standby mode. At this time, the HR Manager can log in and review the test report in preparation for a follow-up interview. No further operation or analysis is required from the manager.

Step 1: The LVA-i operator ensures that the testing room is clean and quiet, and initiates the test from the management panel. The operator fills in the candidate’s details and selects the relevant test questionnaire. A click on the “Start Test” button loads the testing interface and locks the management panel.

Specially designed questionnaires for telephone interviews are also included with the LVA-i software. Unlike the automatic questionnaire, this questionnaire is designed in a form of conversation script where the operator reads through the pre-scripted questions one after the other, leading the candidate throughout the entire test procedure.

Step 1: The operator ensures the candidate on the other

end of the line is in a quiet location and understands the nature of the test.

Step 2: The operator fills in the candidate’s details and selects the test to be performed.

Step 3: LVA-i opens the “Conversation Management” screen and loads the selected script. The operator reads through the script as it appears on his screen, one question after the other. The system monitors the conversation and analyzes the candidate’s answers.

Step 4: Once the test has been completed, the LVA-i report is created and added to the database. No further operation or analysis is required from the manager.

Selecting a case file from the different database views opens the relevant LVA-i report. The analyses records use a risk scoring and color codes for easy review of the results:

Test resultsLVA-i report screen is made of several tabs, providing different levels of information.

The General Info tab displays the candidates’ details and a clear color coded reading of the topics’ risk analysis results. In addition, the main tab displays the operator’s assessment (if applicable) and a highlighted “Warnings Log”.

The risk analysis results are based on the specific script topics, summarizing the analysis indications from all the specific topic’s questions. The 5 risk level indications range from low (a single green block) to high risk (5 red blocks).

The Details tabThis screen provides the user with a deeper analysis of the test results, divided into the topics and questions. Use this screen to further examine “High Risk” answers, and cross references in topics that may reveal additional information.

Final reports tabFollowing review, managers can add their comments and observations to be included in the test file and printed reports.

Playback (optional)Where applicable by law, LVA-i allows you to record the whole test. When selecting a specific answer or segment the player will play the relevant section, and will show the selected portion location on the bar below the slider.

LVATM - Layered Voice Analysis

LVA technology is based on a proprietary set of vocal parameters found, through field & academic research, to correlate with key human emotions and in various combinations to be able to identify deceptive intentions in “real life” scenarios. These vocal parameters were identified from a large repository of audio files captured in different languages and a numerous life situations, from police interrogations, through contact centers to controlled experiments. Many of the parameters Nemesysco’s technology uses are new to the world of phonetics, and focus on the uncontrolled and, as yet, phonetically unexplained properties of the human voice.

LVA is a security-level technology designed to serve professional investigators in their line of work, by providing indications that further directs the investigation procedure to the relevant path. LVA analyses can be performed in real-time (using a microphone or on a telephone conversation) as well as off-line on previously recorded material. LVA-i system is using the LVA technology in a highly controlled manner using scripted conversations, which enables the system to “understand” what emotional reactions are expected in each part of the call (as well as which emotional reactions are not.

Risk detection using LVA technology has been found to be effective in reducing organization’s exposure to unlawful acts and deter fraudsters; however, this kind of testing should only be performed in accordance with the pertinent local laws and regulations. Please consult with your legal advisor for the applicable regulations in your region.
