No right or wrong, but honest

For personality and motivation tests there is no right or wrong answer. Answer as you truly are, then the outcome fits you best. You are always entitled to feedback on your results.

Frequently asked questions from candidates

Can I prepare for an assessment?+

Yes. Especially for cognitive ability tests, practice helps: you get used to the question types and the time pressure. For personality tests, honest answering is what matters.

What happens to my data?+

Your data is processed carefully and GDPR-compliant within the EU. You see in advance what is measured and are entitled to feedback on your results.

How long does an assessment take?+

That varies per test. A single questionnaire often takes 15 to 30 minutes; a full assessment day can take 4 to 8 hours. You are told this in advance.

Every test below is free and shows you a result on screen as soon as you finish.

Big Five personality Five broad traits, the way personality is most often described in research. You indicate per statement how far it fits you. Start the test → DISC behavioural styles Four styles of behaviour in working together. None of the four is better than the others; they differ in pace and in where your attention goes. Start the test → Drivers What gives your work meaning. Drivers say nothing about what you can do, but a lot about where your energy comes from. Start the test → Leadership styles Five ways of leading. The question is not which is best, but which you reach for by default and which you have to choose deliberately. Start the test → Competency check Eight competencies that come back in almost every role. You judge per statement how often you show that behaviour. Start the test → Study choice and interests Six areas of interest. Where your attention goes by itself says more about a fitting direction than what you happen to be good at. Start the test → Number series Every series follows a single principle. You work out that principle and continue the series with one number. Start the test → Verbal analogies You look for the word pair whose left word fits the left blank and whose right word fits the right blank. Start the test → Numerical calculation Reading figures from a work context and drawing the right conclusion: percentages, ratios, averages and unit prices. Scrap paper is allowed, a calculator is not. Start the test → Spatial reasoning You see the net of a cube and look for the cube that can be folded from it. The folding happens in your head. Start the test → Abstract reasoning You see a figure and look for the same figure rotated. Mirror images look very similar and do not count. Start the test →
