Numerical ability test measures how well someone can understand, analyse and perform calculations on numerical information. 

Suitable for: 

For roles where candidates will need to be comfortable with numbers, mathematical functions and interpreting data. Candidates use number-based reference material to answer multiple choice questions involving basic arithmetic, averages, percentages and ratios. Tests are timed and candidates are able to use a calculator throughout (one of their own, not built into test). 

Difficulty levels:

ABOUT THE CRITERION COGNITIVE ABILITY TESTS

Cognitive ability or aptitude tests are an objective way of measuring an individual’s performance on different work related tasks or situations. They tap into reasoning skills and are therefore a measure of potential, rather than academic performance or stored knowledge.

They provide employers with an indication of how people will perform in a work setting and so are frequently used to decide whether a candidate has the baseline cognitive ‘firepower’ necessary to be successful in the role.

We provide the following coginitive ability tests: 

• Numerical 
• Verbal
• Abstract
• Mechanical
• Checking 

When used alongside other psychometrics, such as personality questionnaires or scenario based tests, employers are able to build up a holistic picture of how the individual would behave in the role.

Are you looking to assess your candidates’ potential? If the answer is yes, then use ability tests such as verbal, numerical and logical. Numerical reasoning assesses how quickly and accurately a person can make factually-based decisions. You will be able to request a complete cognitive ability test covering verbal, numerical and logical reasoning. Our Personality Insights Report includes cognitive ability results too. Note: The SOVA platform complies with the ‘Web Content Accessibility Guidelines’ and timings on the ability tests can be adjusted for individuals who have neurodiverse conditions.
