Personality screeners may help you gauge who you'll be speaking to. Sometimes personality is a hard criterion (you only want a certain type), and sometimes it's context to read before inviting.
Some examples of when you may use one:
Recruiting introverts or quieter personalities to test a mental health app
Recruiting talkative, expressive people to react to a marketing ad
Recruiting creative minds to help shape a new product
Multiple-choice examples
Multiple-choice questions are the ones that affect an applicant's eligibility score, so use these when personality is a must-have. Mark the options that fit your audience as approve and the rest as reject.

Short answer examples
Short answer questions give you a feel for how someone expresses themselves, which is often the best personality signal of all. Just know that open-text answers carry no weight in eligibility scoring; they're for you to read when hand picking participants, not for the system to screen on. Consider pairing them with at least one multiple-choice question if personality is a hard criterion.
If you could have dinner with a prominent person or celebrity, who would it be and why?
If you were starting a business, what would it be and why?
