[QUOTE="AvniD, post: 94235, member: 17155"] I don't think any type of 'test', whether it's critical thinking or behavioural, can ever be fully fair to all candidates. Not everyone possesses the same instincts when it comes to these tests, and it's clear that some tests can be biased against those who haven't received a private education in the UK (this is based on what I've been told by a graduate recruiter). At the end of the day, they all serve the same purpose, which is to 1) filter through thousands of candidates and 2) identify those candidates who could 'possibly' be the best fit for the firm. Like [USER=17165]@George Maxwell[/USER] said, I would not take the outcome of these tests to heart- it's one test's, one firm's limited perception of you that could totally be incorrect or misread. The best way to move forward would be to identify the firms whose tests/application process you think you could give your best in and be tested on most 'fairly' and proceed with your applications on that basis. Sometimes being this clinical with how you select firms plays out in your advantage by taking the pressure off how much you care about how firms perceive you🤷♀️ [/QUOTE]
