What sort of assessment and for what type of role?

Relax and be yourself

What type of assessment and what sort of role?

Principal role, they don’t specify

Jokes aside. I had to 6 of this for a job with an SWF recently. The key with the behavioural tests is consistency. If you want to game it a bit, have a look at the JD, think about what are the key skills they may be indexing for and try to maximise for those.

With the numerical, verbal and logical.. i used jobtestprep.com. Paid for a package for a month even though my test was a week away. The final test was close to the simulations i practiced. Did about 8-10 practise tests on each to get into the rythm of synthesising information at pace, working with an analog calculator at speed (which i hadnt done since uni) and being able to read faster. At the end of the day its a muscle you need to just practice a bit. The actual test isnt hard its just time constrained.

Most places need an average or an above average to pass.
Also, its adaptive. So if you feel the qs getting harder, you’re doing well.

Any tips on how to improve lining thickness? My RE had me on Estrace for a week before starting Prometrium (vaginally) a few days ago, but my lining is only a little above 5mm. Looks likely that this FET cycle is going to get canceled (was potentially going to be this weekend) since the lining doesn’t seem to be thick enough. This will be the 3rd transfer cycle that’s getting canceled, it just really sucks...what’s worse is I didn’t see my doctor today, just the sono tech, (cont’d)

Also there is no pairing in my project. Any suggestions on what should be done would be welcome.

Have interviewed a couple of people from WK over the past few weeks and have been hearing a lot about how it’s becoming a pretty horrible place to work since Susan came onboard. The criticism was more around actually working there than the work itself but is it really that bad? One of the candidates was saying that many of the good creatives have been leaving or are planning to leave because of this. I haven’t ever worked for Susan so I have no clue. Anyone heard anything similar?

Is it totally weird to request another meeting after getting a job offer to make sure it's a right fit? 🤔

I've noticed that sometimes I still have lingering questions. ❔

I've been burnt out by toxic work environments, so I don't want to make another mistake. 🙄

How would you handle this logistics of this meeting? (Timing - after the offer but with time before you start? How to phrase the reason why?)

Thanks! 🔅☺️
