Below is a description of each of the employment tests we offer.
Employment Aptitude Tests
Aptitude tests assess cognitive ability, which research shows is the single best predictor of job performance. Our employment aptitude tests measure problem-solving ability, critical thinking, attention to detail, and learning ability. |

A four-test subset of the MRAB Battery, the AST measures a person's concentration and ability to sustain focus on one or more tasks while avoiding distractions. |
Employment Personality Tests
Personality tests, sometimes called behavioral tests, assess a person's behavioral traits and tendencies, and provide valuable information on a candidate's likely job and culture fit. They also measure traits that have been shown to be linked to performance in a range of occupations, and often provide benchmarks for predicting suitability for a particular position.
