9 Suggested Student Responses Active Viewing Guide Psychometric testing and employment 1. Define psychometric testing. Psychometric tests are psychologically validated tests which can be used to assess people for suitability for selection for employment. 2. What is the purpose of using psychometric testing for employment selection? Provide a few examples. Answers will vary but may include: to make sure they have the skills and capacity to do that job; to ensure they have the right interpersonal skills to work in certain job environments; to ensure they have logical thinking skills the job demands for example: mechanical reasoning skills for engineering jobs; personality strengths that relate to leadership for being a pilot; numerical skills to work in retail; verbal skills and problem solving skills in jobs like architect, lawyer, trades, etc. 3. How did psychometric testing begin? How was it first used? Psychometric tests were first used during World War 2 to select soldiers, and place them in appropriate combat roles and for possible promotion. Types of psychometric tests 4. List five of the types of psychometric testing that are used by employers. Answers will vary but should include five of the following: numerical tests; verbal tests; logic or reasoning tests; abstract or diagrammatic reasoning; spatial test; mechanical tests; personality questionnaire. 5. For three of the types of psychometric tests identified in question 4, describe the types of items in each test, and how they would be used by various employers/jobs/industries. Answers will vary but may include (using numerical tests as an example): simple addition or subtraction, graphs and tables of data; these tests might be used to test numerical abilities relating to the role, e.g. for jobs involving mathematical skills such as engineering or physics, or jobs requiring applicants to handle money. Preparation for psychometric tests 6. What general advice is given about preparing for these tests? Answers will vary but may include: to do some practice tests, to be in the right frame of mind; be prepared; know the location of the test and don t be late; sleep well and watch nutrition and hydration; stay calm. 7. a) How does the advice differ between the different types of tests that you may be given? Answers will vary but should mention at least two pieces of advice, for example: some tests you can prepare for, such as numerical and verbal tests as well as mechanical tests etc, by doing some practice examples to help to focus your thinking. You should always ask if there s something you re unsure about when completing the test. Personality tests cannot really be studied as you need to be yourself. b) What do you think is the most useful piece of advice to your situation? Answers will vary. 9
10 Advantages and disadvantages of psychometric testing 8. What are the advantages of psychometric testing for: a) The applicant? Offers the opportunity to demonstrate skills and abilities not shown in a cover letter, resume or face-to-face interview, may offer constructive feedback by the employer. b) The employer? A potentially quick and easy method of differentiating job applicants and then selecting them. It provides a further opportunity to see if the applicant will fit with the role and organization. 9. What are the disadvantages of psychometric testing for : a) The applicant? May be stressed, not respond well under test conditions, distractions if others around you, not an accurate representation of who you are, limited response options, may not receive feedback. b) The employer? May not indicate an accurate assessment of the applicant, as most tests are time limited which can create stressful conditions for some people and thus not an accurate picture of them; may not fully test what you are looking for, need accurate interpretation by skilled people; a face-toface interview is still needed for a complete picture. 10. How can constructive feedback after a test assist an applicant? By offering ways of improving your performance under test conditions; by helping the applicant to understand more about themselves and their skills, ability and personality profile; to understand more about the employment selection process in some industries and jobs. 11. In summary, what is the purpose of psychometric testing in the context of careers and employment? To provide an opportunity to demonstrate your skills, abilities and aptitudes, plus personality, to an employer, in addition to your resume, cover letter and face-to-face interview. To ensure that you are selected appropriately for jobs that requires particular skills, abilities and personalities to function in them well. For employers to have the ability to select candidates that best fit the job, especially if there are many applicants. 12. What is your opinion of psychometric testing for employment purposes, now that you have seen this program? Answers will vary. 10
