You may have applied recently for a job, transfer or promotion, had an interview and been told that you now need to sit an aptitude test along with several other of the better candidates for the position. Your preparations for this should comprise the following, key steps:
• find out about the test
• obtain similar test materials
• plan a timetable of practice
• practise regularly
• rest thoroughly
• attend the test.
Find Out about the Test
An obvious point perhaps – but one which many candidates overlook – is to discover as much as possible about the test you are going to have to tackle. To prepare properly, you need to know what the test will involve, the types of question you will face and how long it will last. Clearly, you must ask the firm to provide you with this information. Most will be obliging, with some supplying literature such as the GAT Test Taker’s Guide (see below) which you should study carefully.

You may have been sent this leaflet to help you prepare for your testing session. It:
• introduces you to the tests themselves;
• gives you an idea of what to expect;
• provides hints on how to prepare yourself;
• answers key questions; but remember that you can still ask questions at the testing session.
Here are the answers to some important questions.
| Q | Why am I being asked to take some tests? |
| A | You may have school or work qualifications, but these tests give extra information which will help employers to select those applicants who are best suited to the job or their training programme. |
| Tests also help you to explore your abilities; this should assist you in choosing a suitable area of work. | |
| People who are successful in the job have usually done well in the tests, so both employers and applicants get what they want. | |
