WikiJob Releases Free Practice Aptitude Tests

UK's leading graduate jobs website offers valuable psychometric aptitude test practice for graduates applying for their first job. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) September 07, 2010 - WikiJob Graduate Jobs, the UK's largest graduate jobs website, has today launched its free practice aptitude tests, designed to give candidates the ability to practise the same sorts of psychometric and aptitude tests they will have to sit to get a graduate job.

In recent years, graduate employers have been using numerical reasoning and verbal reasoning tests with increasing frequency, which now dominate the graduate jobs market. This makes it thoroughly more challenging for graduates seeking their first job.

Employers seek to hire candidates only in first quartile for both numerical reasoning and verbal reasoning tests. Less than 15% of candidates fall into this category. As the graduate jobs market is so competitive, candidates who do not practise aptitude tests are destined to fail.

WikiJob, a long time leader in advising graduates on how to get jobs, is now offering free practice tests as well as an enhanced paid for service, which allows candidates to really practise their skills. WikiJob has had these practice tests written specifically by professional test writers, to best model the style of aptitude test graduates will sit for real.

"Good performance in the initial round of psychometric aptitude tests is crucial for candidates to give them the best chance of securing a graduate job" said WikiJob co-founder Ed Mellett. "More and more companies are using psychometric aptitude tests as a way to help separate the best graduate candidates. A good score in the initial round of testing may make the difference between getting a graduate job interview or not, so numerical & verbal practice on these kinds of aptitude tests is essential.".

Subscription to the premium practice psychometric aptitude tests is £9.99 for 14 days. To find out more, go to http://www.wikijob.co.uk/aptitude-tests
