An aptitude exam is a test that many employers use to evaluate how well an applicant might do in a specific job. These exams are usually one or two hours long and will cover skills that the employer believes are essential for performing the job successfully. The exams are typically administered to the applicant at the beginning of an interview or before starting their appointment.

Job analysis tests: 

Job analysis tests evaluate how well an applicant will perform the job in a particular position. These tests typically consist of questions that test a specific area of expertise and need to be answered within a specified period.

Personality tests: 

Personality tests are used to determine how well an applicant will fit into the work environment of a specific job. The idea is to find out whether the applicant will be agreeable with others and discover if they are hard workers.

Work sample tests: 

 

Work sample tests allow employers to evaluate an applicant’s skills in actual work situations that may occur on the job. These exams simulate real work situations and enable employers to see how an employee handles different conditions or if they have leadership qualities.
