Hi, does anyone have any tips for Ashurst’s online assessments? It would be greatly appreciated. The tests are as follows:
1) Cognify – will require you to complete a series of online games measuring your problem solving and analytical skills.
2) Values Fit – helps us to identify candidates who have similar values to Ashurst and our staff. This assessment looks at key work factors and the importance you give each one, ensuring the best cultural fit for both yourself and Ashurst.
3) Emotify – will require you to complete 2 games measuring your interpersonal skills, leadership potential and capability.
Thanks!
1) for cognify, I recommend downloading some of those Brain training games like Elevate. It’s literally a selection of games ripped straight from brain training Nintendo DS so that’s your best bet. And utilise the practice versions they give you tons of times over.
2) this is the easier one. Check the firms values / message some trainees and associates, and understand the firms values as a whole. Answer similar to what they suggest but also be honest to yourself. I think this is more just to test you’d be a nice person in the office!
3) this one is just stupid. You literally see a face and have to say which emotion it is. Sounds easy but they make it hard by giving you like 2 seconds to click which emotion it is. It’s another brain trainer game basically. The second section is a little more logical. You get a scenario and have to say what emotion the person in that scenario should be feeling. For this, it’s hard to practice. It’s really just common sense. If someone has been told they are fired, they are sad etc.
overall these are super unique tests. Hard to prepare for, but elevate and other brain trainers are your friend! And be honest, kind and friendly in your answers!
