Psychometric Testing - What can I expect?
3. Why are they used and how do I prepare?
Why are they used?
Many employers believe that psychometric tests will give an indication of how you are likely to behave. This may help them assess whether you are able to do the job, whether your character is suited to the work and how you may cope with certain work situations.
How can I prepare for them?
Psychometric tests are testing your preferred way of working or trying to give a clearer indication of your personality and temperament in the workplace. They are not designed to test your memory or your knowledge like Highers or degree exams.
However, it does pay to familiarise yourself with typical questions, particularly in ability tests. Quite often a mediocre score can be vastly improved with practice.
