© 2014 wheresjenny.com Psychology Psychological tests are becoming an increasingly popular way for companies to screen candidates for potential jobs. Whether you think they are worthwhile or not, it is important that, as a job-seeker, you are familiar with the different types of tests and that you understand what is being asked of you in the different circumstances. Psychological Testing

© 2014 wheresjenny.com Psychology 10 tips when going to be psychologically tested for a new job: Don’t try to second-guess what the potential employer might be looking for – be yourself! Make sure they will give you a feedback session afterwards, and not just a written, computer-generated report. You are spending your valuable time on this. You deserve a feedback session with a trained psychologist. Ask them about why they are using psychological testing. If they say ‘to save time’ – not so good. If they say ‘to compare with existing employees – we’ve been using this test for years and it’s very helpful for matching the right person to the right job’ – more encouraging! Ask them why they are using this particular test and not others – appear knowledgeable and savvy to potential employers. Ask them ahead of time about the psychological tests they use and look them up in the book. If they are not there, check them out on the website of the British Psychological Society. If they are not there either it might be that the potential employer is using a ‘cheap and dirty’ exercise. Draw your own conclusions!

© 2014 wheresjenny.com Psychology Take your time during the test but don’t ponder too long. Try to be consistent or it might look like you are trying to present yourself in an unnatural way. If you don’t understand the wording ask the test administrator for an explanation. Ask for the test in your native language if this is not English. Many reputable tests are available in many languages. Most tests are designed for native speakers. If you don’t get the job – it is probably not that you ‘failed’ the test, unless it’s not a personality test as such but testing specific technical skills, which you don’t have. Most hiring decisions are based on interviews and competencies as well, not on psychological test results alone.
