Anyone ever make it to the next round of an interview with any of the big 4 Deloitte EY PwC KPMG and have to do some assessment called Pymetrics? What was it like and do you feel like it determined your chances of getting hired?

They made us do this to use in recruiting. It’s just a bunch of flash games lol. Supposedly it helps the firm identify high quality candidates or something but idk

I interviewed with PWC and Deloitte and have never heard of this

I've gone thru a full round of interviews at Deloitte - nothing like that.

KPMG is launching a lot of "new initiatives". Would not suprise me if this is something being used. Contrary to first impulses, the intent would be identify your personality strengths so as to place you in a position for success... as opposed so selling your results to Big Brother.

It's something I know kpmg has started doing. Just do your best, theyre trying to see how similar you are to the ppl that already work there

I've taken tests like these. Truly, there are no wrong answers. The worst thing you could do is try to give answer you 'think' they want.

Give honest answers and you'll be much better matched to a position you can be successful at and, of course, maximizes your contribution to the firm. The results, if shared with you, can be quite enlightening.

Think of it like a dating site...."you" give honest profile answers hoping those matched with were also truthful. If not, things will not last long.

I work at KPMG (never had The Test) but am speaking from other employer experience. I am sad to say that I am actively seeking employment elsewhere for reasons non-relevant to this thread.

If anyone is interested about the reasons and history of this test watch the documentary Persona (HBO Max). It’s really scary how companies are using personality tests to determine if people’s worth

What do you mean "if people's worth"?

I did it at PwC as a test subject before they use it for recruiting. It was bunch of timed games.

Sounds awfully similar to having to pass the DNA screening tests on the horizon...

Pymetrics is super easy and was actually kind of fun.
