Description: Emotional Intelligence, more commonly referred to as EQ (emotional quotient) is the ability to be aware of one's own emotions and those of other people. The two main aspects of EQ are: understanding yourself and your goals, aspirations, responses and behaviour; understanding others and their feelings. In today's competitive workplace more and more companies are using EQ tests to vet job applicants and assess staff. They no longer wish to rely on traditional testing methods as they recognise that positive behaviours are just as important as technical expertise. If you are about to sit such a test and you want to ensure that you come out of it well, Test Your EQ is for you. It will help you to think about various aspects of your personality, identifying your strengths and weaknesses. Each test covers a different personality trait followed by an analysis and assessment. There are no right or wrong answers, but practising the types of questions you may face will calm nerves and equip you with self knowledge helping you to be one step ahead. Test Your EQ will also appeal if you just wish to exercise your mind and analyze your potential.
