Psychometric Testing - What can I expect?

6. How should I answer the questions?

The most important thing is to be yourself. Ultimately neither you, nor the employer will be happy if the real you is not on display in work. Many employers want candidates with a balance of qualities such as being able to work as part of a team, the ability to get a job done or remaining focused on your goals. But don't try and second guess the answers they want. Very often there are checks within questionnaires to detect whether you are giving a false impression.
