PSYCHOMETRIC TESTS: WHAT THEY ARE AND WHY GRADUATES NEED TO KNOW
Many
graduate employers use psychometric tests as part of the selection process for
their graduate schemes. Use our quick guide to find out what to expect, and
have a go at some practice tests.
If you apply for a place on a graduate scheme with a big
graduate employer, chances are you’ll be asked to take psychometric tests. They
are often used as a filtering mechanism at an early stage in the recruitment
process.
As with any kind of test, you can improve your performance
by knowing what to expect and by practising. As long as you’ve done some
preparation beforehand, you can approach psychometric tests confident in the
knowledge that you’re as well placed to succeed as anyone else.
Pychometric tests are impersonal, standardised and
objective, and practice tests are readily available. The psychometric test is a
level playing field: employers value them because they are a fair way of
comparing different candidates’ strengths regardless of educational background.
This article will explain what to expect from the
different kinds of tests and which tests are used by some of the most popular
graduate employers. We’ll also give you links to free psychometric tests from
some of the key organisations that devise these assessments for graduate
recruiters, plus tips for preparation and for doing your best on the day.
When you could be tested in the
recruitment process
Psychometric tests may be used at different stages of the
graduate selection process:
·
After you
submit your online application form.
·
Alongside a
first interview.
·
At a later
stage, possibly with a second interview or as part of an assessment centre. You
may be re-tested at this point to confirm the results of earlier tests.
Types
of test; ability, aptitude and personality
Ability tests measure either general
or particular skills, capability and acumen. This category of test can include:
·
Numerical
tests: assess how well you
interpret data, graphs, charts or statistics. Can test basic arithmetic.
·
Verbal
reasoning tests: assess how you well you
understand written information and evaluate arguments and statements.
·
Non-verbal
reasoning tests: assess how well you
follow diagrammatic information or spot patterns. Can check spatial awareness.
Diagrammatic or abstract reasoning tests are sometimes described as inductive reasoning tests.
·
Logical
reasoning tests: assess how well you
follow through to a conclusion given basic information, or using your current
knowledge or experience. These include deductive reasoning tests,
in which you are given information or rules to apply in order to arrive at an
answer.
You are particularly likely to come up against inductive reasoning tests when applying for engineering, science
and IT roles, including software development jobs and positions that involve
technical design. They tend to consist of multiple choice questions that you
have to complete against the clock. Each question might consist of a series of
simple pictures, each one of which is slightly different. You might then be
asked to choose another picture from a number of options to complete the series.
Try to find out in advance if you are likely to be set an inductive reasoning
test as part of an assessment centre, as this will give you the chance to seek
out examples and practise. Don't panic if you can't complete all the questions
on the day; the test may have been devised so that it is almost impossible to
finish before time is up.
Deductive reasoning tests assess a different type of logical problem solving. Broadly
speaking, inductive reasoning moves from observation of specific instances to forming
a theory that can be used to make predictions. Deductive reasoning starts with
a number of rules and applies them in order to work out what happens in
specific cases. Inductive reasoning can arrive at new solutions rather than
using what is already known to solve a problem, so you can see why employers
who focus on technological innovation are interested in it.
Employers may also run tests to assess your
problem-solving skills or ability to identify mistakes accurately: eg
proof-reading or basic spelling and grammar tests.
Aptitude tests examine your potential
to learn a new skill that is needed to do the job you have applied for. If you
are considering careers in IT you may be asked to complete a programming
aptitude test (this could take the form of a diagrammatic, abstract reasoning
or inductive reasoning test). For other career areas, such as finance, you may
find that numerical and verbal reasoning tests are focused on the kind of
information you would come across in your daily work.
Ability and aptitude tests are usually conducted under
timed, exam conditions. Most involve multiple-choice or true/false answers.
They can be done on paper but increasingly employers use computer-based
programs.
The results compare your ability levels to a ‘normal’ expectation
for a demographic group chosen by the employer or test provider (this could be
the results of a group of previously successful applicants, people typical of
your level of education, or the general public).
Critical thinking and
situational judgement tests assess candidates’
natural responses to given situations. They are used in two ways:
·
To give
graduates the chance to evaluate themselves. Several employers host tests in a
quiz or game format on their websites to enable graduates to see if they would
be a good fit. These tests are usually designed to be fun and appealing, but
can be a wake-up call if you are less well suited to working for that
particular organisation than you think.
·
As part of
the recruitment process, to gauge how a candidate operates. The test results
may also help the recruiter decide which area of the business the candidate
would suit best.
The best approach is to answer as honestly and calmly as
possible. Candidates should make sure they understand the scenario properly and
only use the information given. Situational judgement and critical thinking
assessments measure suitability rather than ability, so applicants who don't
get through to the next stage of the recruitment process have not failed;
rather, they have succeeded in avoiding a job and employer that would not have
been a good match.
Personality tests assess your typical behaviour when presented with different
situations and your preferred way of going about things. They examine how
likely you are to fit into the role and company culture. Assessors may match
your responses with those of a sample of successful managers or graduate
recruits. Employers look for people with certain characteristics for particular
jobs. For a sales role they may want someone who is very forward, sociable, and
persuasive.
Don't try to second guess what you think the employer
wants to see – personality questionnaires assess consistency in responses. If
you’re right for the job and the employer is right for you, you’ll do fine. If
the job and employer isn’t looking for people with your personality, you’ll
make a lucky escape.
Graduate Talent Simulations were recently introduced by SHL. These are 3D graphics which
visually demonstrate a situation, rather than simply telling you about it. They
are very similar to the video simulations used by other companies. The
difference is that they can be customised and branded to suit a company, so you
may come across them more than once in your graduate job hunt. Talking 3D
people can be a little off-putting at first, so if you think you’re going to be
taking one of these tests, be prepared to listen to what the characters are
saying.
Our employer hubs include
in-depth reports on individual graduate employers that provide information
about how to get hired and give insights about what to expect from the
recruitment process.
Free practice tests online
The best way to approach graduate psychometric tests is to
practise so that you become familiar with the typical formats they take and the
way questions are asked. It will also help you to improve on speed and accuracy
and identify areas in your ability tests that need work. Just make sure you
don’t get over-confident. Doing practice tests can improve your performance to
some degree, but each employer’s tests will be slightly different.

Exercise your mind: do word and
number puzzles
If you have verbal and numerical reasoning tests coming up
it’s good to increase your mental agility and get yourself into the habit of
recognising word and number patterns through some simple activities.
·
Get
back to the basics of maths: Numerical tests don't require advanced algebra: revising some
GCSE-level maths should provide what you need. Revise how to read information
presented graphically and brush up on percentages, ratios and probability.
·
Do
number puzzles: Number puzzles like
Sudoku are good for helping you recognise number patterns.
·
Add,
subtract, multiply and divide… in your head: When you're at the shops try adding up a few items in your head.
Or at least try to get a good estimate of what your trolley-load will cost.
·
Think
about meaning: When you read news
stories, think about what statements really mean, and how they could be
interpreted.
·
Do
word puzzles: Never has there been a
better excuse for frittering away time on the Saturday morning crossword.
·
Be
aware of commonly misspelt words: Most English grammar books and websites have lists of commonly
misspelt or 'confusable' words, eg 'its' and 'it's', or 'complement' and
'compliment'. Check you are also aware of the English spellings of words such
as liaise, favourite and organise.
Tips for psychometric tests at
assessment centres
Pack everything you might need: glasses or contacts, a hearing aid or an inhaler. You may be
given a calculator and writing tools to complete the test but it doesn't hurt
to take your own kit.
Get a good night’s sleep and leave plenty of time to get to the test centre.
Wear a watch so you can keep track
of the time if there is no clock in the room.
If you have a disability that may affect your performance, contact
the recruitment team before the test day. Giving the recruiters sufficient notice will enable them to make
appropriate arrangements for you.
Listen to instructions and follow them carefully.
If you are given practice examples, make the most of them. You may be given a couple of practice questions to complete
before the test starts. If you don't understand how the test works, or anything
still doesn't make sense, this is your last chance to ask.
Make sure you know the number of questions and how much time is
allowed.
Time left at the end? Use any remaining time to check your answers, but don't be
surprised or downhearted if you don't finish everything. Psychometric tests are
meant to be challenging.
Don’t let the test throw you, and try not to take any notice of
what other candidates say about it. Stay focused, upbeat and ready for the rest of the day.

KENEZIAN PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE
“A well-known speaker started off his seminar by
holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this
$20 bill?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this
$20 to one of you but first, let me do this”. He proceeded to crumple the
dollar bill up. He then asked, "Who still wants it?" Still the hands
were up in the air. "Well," he replied, "what if I do
this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the
floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. "Now who
still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air. "My friends, you
have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you
still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled and grounded into the dirt by
the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as
though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen,
you will never lose your value in God's eyes. To Him, dirty or clean, crumpled
or finely creased, you are still priceless to Him.” That is ISM or KENEZIANISM
in practice! I hope you cherish these words of wisdom of an
Unknown Author! You are welcome to “Let us reason together” as Isaiah, the
prophet invited his kinsmen many centuries ago or sit on the fence and die
unenlightened by genuine Aristotelian-Kantian combine of deductive and
inductive logic, aided by current fund of science knowledge and enquiry to
unravel the fables and legends that are now labelled as theology! There is
nothing theological about an accumulation of guesswork done by primitive men!
They are simply a collection of puerile belief in man-made doctrines, dogmas
and rituals that is steadily pushing the humane race to annihilation. Here, I
rest my objective of penning this protracted but comprehensive diatribe. Call
it heresy, if you like. I do not care a dime. Truth is supreme! Truth is Life,
my people declare!

THE ORIGINS OF KENEZ PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH
FOUNDATION
Abbreviated; KPRF is the engine room of the parent
organization
Kenez
International Humanitarian Organizations Linkage; KIHOL, was conceptualised as
an answer to the dearth of indigenous psychological tests in the African
continent. It is the brainchild of an ambitious undergraduate on the end of
session vacation job in 1973/74 at the government-owned Neuro-psychiatric Hospital Aba I. Q” in the Reader’s Digest, a popular
magazine he found in the OPD Waiting Room. He was familiar with the British
publication since his higher school years, 1966-1967, at Christ the King College Onitsha
He refuted the
validity of the assessment tool noting its ethnocentric bias in both the
cultural artefacts used in its construction and the peculiar anglicised
phraseology used in its verbal and non-verbal test items. He went
home determined to rectify the identified anomalies by modifying those areas he
saw as skewed assessment items. He christened his indigenous revision; “A
Cultural Adaptation of I.Q. Tests”.
This
revolutionary impetus lasted another academic session as the young man asked so
many questions on the issue and demanded veritable answers from his lecturers
at the Department of Psychology, University of Lagos Lagos , Nigeria I. Q” in the Reader’s Digest. One of his
lecturers; Dr Delores E. Mack an American Clinical Psychologist; fell in love
with him for this feat! This acted as the motivation the lad needed to forage
into the theories and practices of psychological testing. He spent hours at the
university library.
The
developmental skill suffered a setback as examinations that were more serious
faced the young researcher during his final year. He however picked up and
dusted his notebook on the topic during his National Youth Service Corps year
at the Department of Psychiatry, University College Hospital Ibadan Kano Kaduna
After earning
a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology in 1982 and a Doctorate degree in
Psychometrics in 1993, he intensified creative research into how to increase
the production of scales, inventories and tests to arrest the dearth of
indigenous assessment tools for educational, counselling and medical purposes
in Africa. Today after half a century, the same research enthusiast can boast
of fifteen well developed, truly validated and internationally standardised
psychological tests covering areas in teenage guidance & career
counselling, psychological medicine, educational psychology and family
counselling/therapy.

BRIEFS ON THE GENESIS OF KENEZIANISM
The theory and
practice of Kenezianism started in 1970, at the end of the civil war when its
originator Major Kenechukwu Nzeogwu Mbaezue; BA/ 6532, of the Degema Strike
Force, 12th Commando Brigade, Biafra, returned from the war front! He felt
shattered by the outcome of the fratricidal debacle of three years. “Why
did we lose the war of survival? Should Nigeria Mecca
That gave him
enough time to reflect on some existential questions about all he had learnt
from the Christian missionaries that moulded his early life in the junior and
senior seminaries. There arose the need for him to re-evaluate his belief
system, moderate his scrupulous orientation to social life and thereafter,
formulate a realistic code of conduct that could guarantee his survival in the
conflicting world of the Nigerian society he found himself trapped in! He lived
as a war captive for the next 30 years! Within this period, he fully practised
the introverted meditative lifestyle of Viktor Frankl or that detached life of
a research scientist reminiscent of the great Austrian monk geneticist,
MacGregor Mendel.
He earned a
total of four university degrees that spanned a period of 15 years, with breaks
here and there to assist his eight younger brothers and sisters, siblings of
the same humble family of a school teacher/catechist! To achieve this, he again
joined the armed forces of the nation he lived as an exile, the fallout of
which was that he neatly sandwiched a military diploma, pjsc, from the Nigerian
Air Force in between the four degrees!
