SHL's Cognitive Assessments
Our pre-employment cognitive assessment starts by asking candidates a series of interactive questions organized around a central principle linked to something they are likely to encounter in the role.
SHL Verify G+ Test
Measures general mental ability, or G, and effectively measures candidates’ problem-solving and critical reasoning capabilities.
SHL Verify Deductive Reasoning
Measures candidates’ ability to draw logical conclusions and complete scenarios based on the information provided. Tasks include reading statements, then determining which subsequent options cannot be true or must be true.
SHL Verify Interactive – Inductive Reasoning
Measures candidates’ ability to draw inferences from, and understand relationships between, various concepts. Tasks include working out the pattern in a set of images and identifying the correct next image.
SHL Verify Interactive – Numerical Reasoning
Measures candidates’ ability to work with numbers and use appropriate mathematics in different situations. Tasks include solving word problems, performing numerical calculations, and interpreting charts and graphs.
