Pre-Employment Test
Purpose: Our online General Reasoning Test provides a quick, easy-to-administer test of a job candidate’s general mental ability. Like most general intelligence tests, it taps several types of reasoning: Verbal reasoning, numeric reasoning, logic, math skills, spatial reasoning, and basic knowledge.
The General Reasoning Test can be used with our other tests for more in-depth analysis of candidates.
About This Test: This is a 12-minute timed General Reasoning test.
High Scorers: High scorers are quick to pick up new information, are alert to new ideas that might be applied to their jobs, are capable of grasping difficult concepts on their own, handle a large fund of information, deal with various forms of complexity in a job with ease, and are able to assess relevant factors in ambiguous situations to come up with logical, insightful decisions.
Low Scorers: Low scorers need structured learning experiences to consume new information. They need rules and procedures to guide their decision making on the job. Preferring jobs with narrow assignments and responsibilities, low scorers do not cope well with complexity or volume of information.
What the Report Gives You: Aptitude scores and interpretation guidance.
Testing Process:
- Immediate score report upon completion.
- Proctoring desirable but not required.
- The use of mobile phones is discouraged.
