Psychological testing technology is a test tool, which is the most frequently used in the field of the human resources development and management. But to answer psychological tests in the self-report form, which provides the soil for the candidate’s response bias.In this study, identity-based personality test can effectively predict the candidate’s job performance, scale tests to empirically research the impact of job desirability response to personality test in the occupational selection situation. In Study1,50workers and50candidates of an educational counseling agency as participants using random sampling method, by psychological tests and reaction experiment to explore the impact of the test situation and praised the response to psychological tests. In Study2, all participants are317graduates that come from three universities in Shaanxi Province, and put the False Identification Scale into the Big Five Personality Inventory.

And then explore in the different test situations, how participants’ job desirability response to effect the result of psychological tests and the degree of impact. At last discussing in the occupational selection situation, the effect of the job desirability response to the personality test. On this basis, providing objective and pragmatic advice in order to human resources management departments have a more rational understanding of the personality test’results, and pay attention to checking the level of job desirability response.The results show that:①In different test situations, there are significant differences of job desirability response.②The results of psychological test will be subject to the test situation and job desirability response of significant impact, but the interaction between the two was not significant.
