    do we think that having to relocate works against you in an application?

    For a couple of applications (one in london and one in Kent) I have initially received the typical 'I am pleased to inform you have met the required benchmark....' e-mail only later to receive e-mails saying 'Thank you for completing the selection testing for the above position. Unfortunately...

    Is there actually any proof that they select 'the highest test scores' for interview like I keep on hearing? I would imagine once the benchmark is passed CV and questionnaire become far more important

    My advice to anyone would be work through the questions much faster than this, after 45 seconds just guess. Sometimes the questions are worded strangely and it is by all good reason a toss-up

    a little bit, i felt like in interview i had learnt too much and came across as irritating. non-technical skills are far more important

    Nah, it's not that vacancy. It's OC Sig Upminster that have sent me this test. I'll complete it, anyway.

    I've applied for a london vacancy and they've sent me a link for a new online assessment even though I completed them a few weeks ago and my results should remain on file for 6 months. i have numerous applications running and this is a one-off. Have they made a mistake or is this a different...

    Was unsuccessful for haslemere relief position following interview. I still have an ongoing application for Woking job thats status is still 'test completed' and it's been like that for a while now, a few weeks. Anyone know what might be up with that?

    Well all I can is I would love to see the answers for the practice test and it's shame they're not available.

    Honestly the more I study it the more I think the practice verbal reasoning test on the SHL site is appallingly badly worded. Hope the real thing is better.

    I'm well aware of the point of verbal reasoning. My point is sometimes I don't believe any of the three answers are ''correct'' and it comes down to subjective interpretation. Note how I said vague 'in a way that is unintentional', some of the questions are just sloppily worded and vague or...

    Hi I've applied for a couple of positions in Surrey. Recieved an e-mail with test links today and have been practising today. I think some of the SHL verbal questions are worded absolutely horribly. Sometimes they're just worded so lazily and making things vague in a way that is...
