2. Fair integrity assessment for your human resources needs
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.
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 sizes
LVA-i is a scalable system available
in different conf igurations,
designed to support any size and
type of organization, from SMB’s to
• Private businesses, network chains, medium size organizations
multi-national scale networks, from
special units to armed forces and • Banks, insurance companies and call centers
police recruitment, from a stand- • Army, police and special units recruitment
alone unit to multi-sites server • Guards and private security firms
based solutions. • Government and recruiting agencies
LVA-i is not a
“Lie-Detector”
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. Looking for repeating indications - Illustration

confirm his personal details. As the test progresses, the candidate has to
answer a series of questions, one after the other.

and the LVA-i returns to standby mode. At this time, the HR Manager can
4 log in and review the test report in preparation for a follow-up interview.
No further operation or analysis is required from the manager.
5. LVA-i Phone Test mode
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 5
operation or analysis is required from the manager.
6. LVA-i Reports and Management System

tab displays the operator’s assessment (if applicable) and a highlighted
“Warnings Log”.

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 tab
This 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.

be included in the test file and printed reports.
