How do you prepare for psychometric test...

Interview Boss
About this episode

Ever wondered what psychometric tests are all about? Or maybe you've got one coming up and you're feeling ALL sorts of confused.

We've got your back. In this week's episode, Sarah and Emma break down the types of psychometric tests you might encounter in the hiring process - from personality assessments to cognitive tests. We unpack why employers use these tests and, most importantly, how you can prepare for them.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to James “G’day ladies! Thanks for your podcast. I was not in a good place last Saturday and not confident in my notes for the interview Tuesday. I searched Spotify for an interview podcast and came across your one about preparing notes a few days in advance. Your tip about listing your achievements and then making the job profile fit them was exactly what I needed to hear. That worked for me like magic! I also listened to your podcast just before my interview and that again really helped. You have nice soothing voices and good sense of humours. I also like how you don’t just make your podcast for women - as a bloke I really appreciated all the advice and I only listened to 2 of your podcasts. Thanks very much. James”
