1. Quality Over Quantity

• • It's best to practice few tests in depth. Complete each question and fully understand the solutions provided, rather than attempting many tests as fast as possible.
  • For example, if you are practicing Verbal Reasoning, try focussing only on 3 tests until you are comfortable with the styles of question asked.
  • This will help you identify areas of weakness and improve. From this you will gain more confidence with this assessment type in the future.

 2. Utilise the Test Reports Available

• • After you have completed a test, visit your reports page to identify where you excelled, and where you struggled.
  • For example, once you have completed a Numerical Reasoning Test, you should look at the solutions and identify topics that the report suggests you need to focus on.
  • All GF tests provide clear solutions to questions where necessary to help you understand how employers score real job assessments.

3. Learn About Yourself

• • Use GF Assessments to identify the skills and competencies you need for the role you are applying for, and those that you already possess.
  • For example, you can use the Personality Questionnaire to identify the traits employers are looking for, and whether you possess these.
  • Or use Video Interviews or Situational Judgment tests to discover the behavioural competencies employers commonly seek in applicants.
