Prepare for your
assessments with GF

According to a recent study by Bradley et al. (2019), they found that 54%-84% candidates who do not practice assessments tend to fail at the first hurdle of psychometric assessments. Alongside practice, external factors such as distractions and a lack of sleep, exercise & water can impact focus. 

Yes, job aptitude tests are commonly used to sift candidates in hiring. Many employers set a lower cut-off at the 30th percentile and may only allow you to apply for a role once every 6-12 months. Therefore it is important that you prepare and give it your best attempt.

How long it takes to hear back on your results can vary depending on the employer and the provider. While some can provide instant feedback, some may take up to a week or more to provide your aptitude test results.
