    I just completed it and it was 3 questions but I dont know if it was great doing within a group.... It definitely threw me off a bit and makes you self conscious how strong other candidates are :/

    Same here...wondering then if unlike other firms that send the WG tests automatically, Howard Kennedy does not automatically sent to everyone and instead this is officially the next stage in their process?
