I didn't realize it was a public holiday, I was already in shock when they wanted me to do the testing on a Saturday. It was after the call when I realized it was a public Holiday. So I double checked the caller ID and it was from a KA phone number. And the HR lady's name sound very familiar.

Same here, just got the call to attend the AT on 19-April morning. But the lady said there won't be any email confirmation for the AT, so I was in doubt until I read Sp0r3's posts

Hahaha... Same here
Maybe they are working extra hard to push candidates to the next batch of CPP training.

lkof, when did you take your Initial Test?

Hi all,
I got a call from KA last week, notifying me to go for AT on 15th.
Anyone else on the same day?

thanks

I did my round 1 - English and math on April 10 Thursday and got a called back on the same day and asked me to do the aptitude test on Friday April 11. I got a called back also on the same day to attend round 3 - first interview next Wednesday morning April 16th. Very nervous now.

Anybody know what kinda questions they ask?

Hi, I took my AT yesterday and it was quite tough.
And logged on to the application page today, its already saying " reapply in 12 months time"...

But I won't give up! will spend more time to prepare

good luck to those who will be taking their tests!

did mine today. Thought the 2nd part of the listening test would allow us to read the question before they played the recording, but it turned out not...and it was quite challenging.
For the numerical test it was quite intense as expected, did some guessing for the last part of the test. finger crossed...

Just finished Initial Test today

I have absolute confidence on the English test, the math... its purely gut feeling and I believe I killed it. There simply wasn't enough time to accurately work all of them. So much numbers....

lasiked_pilot,

I did my AT on Monday (14/4) and received KA's call yesterday (16/4) for initial interview next week. I didn't do very well in the 3-in-1 task too, got 9hits 6misses but the rest are perfect, no misses at all. I guess they look at your overall performance.

Thanks for sharing anyway. You must have put a lot of effort to make that nearly perfect score!

No problem. I wouldn't worry so much if I were you since 7hits 6misses wasn't really that bad. I have seen people with more misses than you got the call for next stage.

Hey everyone this is kinda last minute but does anyone else have an aptitude test tomorrow on the 21st of April? I'm actually kinda worried that I have misheard the date they gave me on the phone as I realize now that it's meant to be easter holiday tomorrow.
