For everyone who hasn’t yet completed the Skyborne assessments, make sure you allow consent for virtual proctoring when registering for the tests (you will need to buy a webcam if you don’t already have one). In one of the questions answered in the Skyborne invitation email, it clearly states that the results from your online assessments will be automatically voided if you refuse to allow consent, thus preventing your application from progressing.

I know this is probably very obvious to all and, again, is clearly stated in the Skyborne email, but I just want to ensure no one gets caught out over something that silly.

Good luck!

Yeah, the numerical reasoning one was impossible to finish in time, but I think a lot of people thought that.

Yeah, I’m sure they design some tests like that to induce a time pressure and see if you rush and make mistakes!

What did you think to the Personal Profile Test? Did you find it hard or easy?

I didn't have one? Just maths, physics etc and group exercise. Can't say much of course other than it wasn't easy 🤣

I don't think any Skyborne will hear back until after the 14th - some people got an extension until then because their details weren't handed over at the same time as the others'.
