There are several types of selection and job fitness tests. The tests job applicants are most likely to be required to take are listed below. However, the best advice for preparing for tests remains the same. Aptitude tests predict your ability to learn and perform job tasks.
Literacy tests measure reading and arithmetic levels.
Honesty and Integrity tests evaluate the likelihood of stealing and trustworthiness of applicants. Physical ability tests measure strength, flexibility, stamina and speed for jobs that require physical performance. Medical tests determine physical fitness to do a job. Employers cannot require you to take a medical examination until after an offer of employment has been extended. A job offer may be conditioned on the results of a medical examination or inquiry, but only if this is required for all entering employees in similar jobs.
