Verify G+, Deductive, Inductive, Numerical, Numerical Calculation
Understand candidate learning potential before making hiring decisions.










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.

G+
Measures general mental ability, or G, and effectively measures candidates’ problem-solving and critical reasoning capabilities.

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.

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.

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.

Numerical Calculation
Measures candidates’ ability to add, subtract, and otherwise manipulate numbers quickly and accurately. Tasks include estimating, auditing, and checking results—critical skills in many workplace tasks across industries.
