ASSESSMENT-TAKING TIPSThe following are some suggestions to help you prepare for the Pre-employment Assessment Process.General Assessment SuggestionsBefore the Assessment Eat well and get a good night’s sleep before the test. Make sure that you have set aside enough time to complete the assessment battery. Onceyou start a particular test, you will not be able to exit the assessment and come back to it atanother time. Make sure the assessment area you choose is quiet and free from distractions. Silence orturn off any cell phones. Read the frequently asked questions regarding assessments located on the How to Applypage. Go into the assessment with a positive attitude, determined to do your best. Focus on whatyouknow rather than worrying about what you do not know.During the Test Read all of the instructions for each assessment and follow them step-by-step. If you skipthe instructions, you may miss important information. No calculators, cell phones, and other electronic devices may be used during the test.Scratch paper/pencil may be used if needed. Although most assessments that we use have generous time limits (45 minutes), keep inmind that some assessments have shorter time limits (5 minutes or less). On assessmentswith shorter time limits, work as quickly and accurately as you can, but do not becomediscouraged if you do not complete any test. It is not expected that everyone will be ableto respond to all of the assessment questions in the given time limits. Carefully read each assessment item. Skimming over an assessment item may cause youto miss important information. Try to stay relaxed during the test.2
Strategies for Multiple-Choice AssessmentsMultiple-choice assessment formats present questions with several response alternatives. You are tochoose the one alternative that is the correct or best answer to the question. Keep the following tipsin mind when you are taking a multiple-choice exam: Never choose an answer based on the frequency or pattern of your previous responses. Donot assume that the correct answers follow any sequence or pattern, or that they are usedin equal numbers. Be sure to read every alternative. Even if one of the first responses is the alternative youexpected to be correct, one of the others may be better or more specifically correct. Eliminate alternatives you know are wrong. This will help you to focus on the remainingalternatives. If two or more alternatives seem correct, compare them to determine whatmakes them different. Evaluate these differences in relation to the question. If you are not sure about any of the alternatives, use logical reasoning to rule out as manyalternatives as you can. Then, choose between the remaining alternatives. Try to answer as many questions as you can during the time limit. Do not spend too muchtime on any one question.Other Tips Several of the assessments will allow you to complete warm-up questions prior to the actualtest. Take advantage of these items to familiarize yourself with the assessment format andcontent. This will allow you to get a feel for the assessment prior to completing the portionthat will be scored. Once you have completed the warm-up questions, you may then begin theassessment.3
