How do you prepare for psychological testing?

You cannot fully prepare for this part, as these tests are based on the fact that you are not familiar with the test tasks and the information contained therein, and that you have never seen them prior to taking the test.

Notwithstanding, you can influence certain aspects of the situation:

  • Get a good night’s sleep and come to the test refreshed
  • Don’t be late!
  • If you are taking the test online, make sure it is done in a peaceful environment for maximum concentration
  • Before you begin taking the test, read the instructions carefully
  • Answer the questions in accordance with the instructions given
  • Listen to the examiner carefully and if you have any questions, ask them
  • The tests are time limited, so be mindful of the remaining time
How to prepare for an interview with us
  1. Research what we do!

    • Research the work of the company whose advertisement you applied for. It is enough to be familiar with the company’s field of activity and product range.
  2. Be punctual!
    • Don’t be late. If you notice you are going to be late, be sure to contact the company and notify them about it in a timely manner.
  3. Review the potential questions!
    • You can find a wealth of questions that you will very probably be asked at the interview. Still, we cherish diversity, and value motivation, so be sure to pay particular attention to your answer to the question, what makes you stand out from other candidates for the same job, and clearly explain your motivation to work at our company.
  4. Prepare questions you might have for us!
    • Questions from our candidates are always welcomed! Take this opportunity to find out what you are really interested in, but were unable to find out from your research of our company.

  5. Prove that you are ready for this job!
    • Review the job description section from the job advertisement, and think about how your previous work experience relates to our expectations.
  6. Be calm and show a positive attitude!
    • Job interviews tend to be quite stressful, but during the interview we strive to make candidates feel at ease, and get the best out of them. Being focused on the job is important, but we also like laughter, playfulness and a positive attitude so just be yourself and relax!
