Oh well.

Just finished the online tests.

Personality profile _ Just answer truthfully I guess.
Verbal reasoning _ Just answer the questions after reading carefully.

Numerical reasoning _ Nightmare.

As if it wasn't bad enough, the telephone ringing three times during the test......................

The numerical questions I felt were overly complicated and required you to understand what was being represented on the charts. Quite frankly, I didn't understand what they were asking me! I have no idea what "Asset value per share" relates to. As for Car engine sizes expressing fuel tank quantity in litres in this instance, even though it's listed in gallons.......... Gibberish.

I have spent 15 years calculating fuel quantities and interpolating performance charts and graphs and have never had a problem. Passed my 737 tech course with a 100% pass. Have spent the previous 20 years performing electronics calculations without so much as breaking a sweat.

However..... ask me about asset values and shares and sorry...
IMHO the tests were not relevant as you can hardly answer the question if you don't understand what you are being asked. I completed the practice test without trouble (on several sites) but the real SHL test bore no resemblance.

Oh well. After a good assessment, best plan for a quiet Christmas and a lean new year.

Who else is recruiting????.........

Cheers.
