Message: <blockquote data-quote="Abbie Whitlock" data-source="post: 220588" data-attributes="member: 42112">Hello!I totally get how you're feeling - even last cycle, I was shocked by how many firms had switched to Cappfinity or similar SJTs, and it seems to be an even larger number this year! They can definitely feel overwhelming at first, but as you do more of them the format becomes a bit easier to understand. A few tips and resources that might help:Understand the FormatCappfinity SJTs usually assess how you'd respond to realistic work scenarios in the role of a trainee. They're designed to test judgment and alignment with company values rather than intelligence. You'll often be ranking or rating responses, so have a look at what the specific firm values, and try and select options that you would do AND that align with those values.Practice with Realistic ExamplesAs some others have said, there are a few resources online that allow you to practice. A lot of firms will have their own practice examples, however, you can also look at websites such as: Cappfinity, AssessmentDay, JobTestPrep, and Graduates First - they should all have some good practice tests (paid and unpaid) to help you understand what the format looks like.Simulate Test ConditionsI would try to do the practice tests timed and without distractions. This will help you build confidence and familiarity so that the actual test feels less stressful on the real day.I've also included some SJT advice that I always found really useful that Zainab shared last cycle - definitely have a look!Most importantly - don't panic! The tests often sound scarier than they are. I definitely wasn't the biggest fan of them initially, but once you've done a few, you'll start spotting patterns and your confidence will grow. Best of luck! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
