The first stage of Redington's application process involves taking a psychometric test, so we're sharing their 5 top tips for acing this stage! Read on before you apply...
- Practice makes perfect. The biggest tip we can give when it comes to improving your chances of doing well is to practice. It will provide you with a better idea of what to expect and develop your skills. There are lots of free resources available online for practice materials.
- Your test environment matters. It might seem obvious, but you will benefit from taking the test in a quiet place where you are unlikely to be disturbed. Having a good internet connection is also crucial to ensure you won't lose connection mid-test.
- Laptop over mobile. Where possible we recommend you take any assessment on a laptop or desktop PC rather than a mobile device or tablet. Devices with larger screen sizes allow you to access reference materials with ease, and the use of a keyboard and mouse make for smoother navigation throughout the candidate journey than touch-screen devices
- Keep track of time. Make sure you know how much time you've got for the overall test and each question. If you find a particular question difficult, do not spend too much time on it.
- Read the instructions carefully. The instructions may contain important information such as recommendations for having a calculator or scrap paper available during the test, test timings and the number of questions. By reading the instructions carefully (or even reading them twice!), you will ensure that you understand what is to come before beginning the test.
