About the Abstract Reasoning test

Our upcoming Abstract Reasoning Test will measure an individual's ability to identify patterns, relationships, and underlying logic in non-verbal stimuli. This non-verbal assessment evaluates the following key cognitive skills:

  1. Pattern Recognition: The ability to discern repeating patterns and sequences within a series of shapes or symbols.

  2. Figural Reasoning: The ability to interpret and manipulate abstract shapes and images to solve problems.

  3. Mental Flexibility: The ability to adapt to changing patterns and relationships without getting fixated on one specific approach.

  4. Problem-Solving: The ability to identify the core problem within a series of abstract shapes or symbols and apply the appropriate reasoning skills to find a solution.

This assessment is particularly valuable for identifying candidates who possess the cognitive skills necessary for success in roles that demand analytical thinking, problem-solving, and adaptability, such as software development, financial analysis, and creative problem-solving.

Benefits of using the Abstract Reasoning test in a pre-employment assessment

  1. Enhanced problem-solving insights: Understand a candidate’s ability to solve complex and unfamiliar problems.

  2. Predictive of strategic thinking: Assesses a candidate's strategic thinking and planning capabilities.

  3. Objective candidate evaluation: Offers a fair and unbiased measure of a candidate's cognitive abilities.

  4. Efficient screening process: Quickly identifies candidates with the necessary cognitive skills for specific roles.

  5. Better job fit prediction: Helps predict candidates' suitability for roles requiring analytical and innovative thinking.

  6. Diverse talent identification: Helps identify candidates with diverse thinking styles and problem-solving approaches.

  7. Reduction in mis-hires: Accurately assessing cognitive skills reduces the chances of hiring unsuitable candidates.

What our customers are saying

TestGorilla helps me to assess engineers rapidly. Creating assessments for different positions is easy due to pre-existing templates. You can create an assessment in less than 2 minutes. The interface is intuitive and it’s easy to visualize results per assessment.

Review from G2

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
