The company is known for using SHL to ensure the value of their candidates. Here are some tests you should look out for:
This test examines your ability to make correct decisions or inferences based on numerical or statistical data. The test consists of 18 questions divided into 6 sets. Each set contains 3 questions, related to a certain table or chart. Overall, the questions on the test become progressively more difficult. The time limit is 25 minutes to complete the test, though most of the people answer all questions within 18 minutes or less.
Verbal reasoning test measures your ability to fully comprehend written passages. The passages are harder than most reading comprehension passages; many times, the questions cannot be answered without deduction, inference and logical understanding. There are 10 passages and 30 arguments in the test and you are asked to determine if they are True, False, or that you Cannot Say. For the 30 questions, you have 19 minutes. Practising this test will improve the candidate reading abilities and his deduction skills.
