Employer assessment tests: find yours and prepare

Most employers use their own assessments. We only say an employer uses a named test when the employer says so. Each card below gives the name of the assessment stage, the country version we cover and the date we last checked. Open the guide for the details. For test publishers such as Wonderlic and CCAT, see tests.

Processes differ by country and role. Check your invite. Dates on this page are month first. The Deloitte UK, Accenture UK, Aldi UK, Lidl GB, Barclays, BCG UK and Fast Stream guides write dates day first and use UK spelling, because their employers do.

FAQ

What is an employer assessment? An online test, game or questionnaire that an employer asks you to complete during hiring. The employer chooses it, not the test publisher.

Does the employer use a named test? Only some say so. Where an employer names a test, the guide says “per” that employer. Where it does not, we do not guess.

Is my process the same as the one on the card? Not necessarily. Each guide covers one country version and says which. Your invitation is the final word.

Each card summarizes the employer’s own pages, which are linked and dated in the guide it points to. Processes change. Contact us if something is out of date.
