An aptitude test is an assessment used to determine a candidate’s cognitive ability or personality. They are extremely common in job assessments as they are used to predict the likelihood of a candidate’s success in a job role, whilst eliminating any bias through its standardized administration.
Are aptitude tests hard?
While aptitude tests are not inherently difficult, several factors can make them feel challenging. Tight time limits put pressure on your critical thinking skills, and the unfamiliar format can throw you off if you haven’t encountered it before. Additionally, the tests assess specific areas like reasoning or numerical ability, where individual strengths vary. However, practising with sample tests can significantly improve your comfort level and performance.
What are the different types of aptitude test?
Aptitude tests come in many different forms due to the range of skills required for different roles. They fall into two categories: verbal and non-verbal. Common non-verbal tests such as numerical reasoning or inductive reasoning, assess your ability to manage numerical data, patterns and problem-solving. Verbal tests such as verbal reasoning, comprehension and situational judgement tests are focused on your ability to analyse verbal data and make astute decisions.
