The Institute of Psychometric Coaching (IPC) is a world leader in preparing job seekers for psychometric testing and assessment centres. We are experienced registered psychologists with an extensive understanding of selection and career development processes. We offer online practice tests (aptitude tests and personality test), short online psychometric courses,    personal coaching and free psychometric guides. Some of the organisations our psychologists have worked for include: 

Aptitude Tests

An aptitude test is one of the most popular methods employers use to measure your work-related cognitive ability. Aptitude tests are always timed, as the key to these tests is how quickly you can finish answering the test. Aptitude test questions only have one correct answer and the test is designed so that only 5% of the population can answer all the questions in the given time frame. The aptitude test helps employers measure your intelligence; your ability to effectively solve problems; and your ability to think strategically and quickly draw accurate conclusions. Employers will look at your aptitude test results to determine your ability to handle work-related challenges

Psychometric Testing

Psychometric testing is commonly used to assist employers when deciding whether candidates are suitable for specific roles. Psychometric testing is designed to find job-relevant information about you which an interview wouldn’t be able to do. Psychometric testing typically includes a combination of aptitude and personality tests online which measure your job-relevant cognitive abilities and personality. The combination of psychometric tests given to you depends on the requirements of the job you have applied for. Our extensive experience led us to conclude that candidates often underperform in their psychometric testing due to stress, pressure and the unfamiliarity of the situation. Therefore, preparation is important to ensure that you pass your psychometric testing with flying colours.

Personality Tests

Personality tests are used by employers to assist them in gauging your personality and behavioural style as they relate to the job you have applied for. For example, personality tests will offer employers information about your ability to work under pressure, work with others, manage tasks and take personal responsibility. The type of personality test you will be given and the way your personality test results are interpreted depends on the context of the job you have applied for. Using our practice personality tests and personality test courses online, you can ensure that you demonstrate to your employers your full potential.

Practice Psychometric Test

Most of the skills and knowledge required to successfully complete your psychometric test can be obtained by taking our practice psychometric test and hands-on psychometric test courses online. Practice psychometric tests have been proven to improve your actual psychometric test score. You should be careful to ensure that when you undertake a practice psychometric test, you do so in the same time and under the same conditions as you would take the normal test - this is the best way to ensure that you succeed. Your practice psychometric test should also be suitable for the job level for which you are applying. You will receive much-needed feedback with great explanations and recommendations based on your practice psychometric test results that will help improve your scores and ensure that you demonstrate your full potential in your real psychometric test.
