[QUOTE="prospectiveswitcher, post: 149946, member: 24174"] The tests are Cognify, Emotify, and a 'values' test (its not like SJT, it's just asking you to rank things in the workplace you like). I just did them and as others have echoed - they appear quite tough, however I feel they are trying to put you under a lot of pressure.
