"There is no right or wrong answer to these questions, be honest". The phrase they use to trick you :)

Remember guys , always....no ... Never be honest, tell the employer what they want to hear

Just lost a really important placement to me because I followed the advice of ‘choose answers honestly’. Wish I’d followed my instincts and did research by watching videos like this one

We basically have to be honest until we have to lie 😁

I already take the test before and I was really hooked at "be honest and be yourself". Watching this gave me an answer why I didn't pass the test 😂

This is where psychology as as science has gotten us to, most of these questions can be interpreted in many ways, the answers are meaningless unless one understands the context of the answers given. Who knows what the respondent has in their mind.

After meeting logical reasoning requirements but not reaching personality requirements for solicitor positions on SJT tests ive done a lot of searching for guides how to approach these tests. This is the first guide that I've found that has been helpful and comprehensive into how to approach these tests. Much appreciated!

16:58 strongly agree 17:09 agree 17:42 disagree 18:22 agree 18:40 disagree 19:41 strongly agree 20:05 neutral 20:28 strongly agree 20:40 agree 21:20 strongly disagree 21:44 strongly disagree 22:06 agree 22:35 agree 22:51 strongly agree 23:05 disagree

You helped me pass the test I've been truly stressed out about. Now I'm considered in getting the job. THANK YOU SO MUCH👏🏾

Q13. Being realistic even if that means being pessimistic is extremely valuable in roles where there is the necessity to identify risks and develop contingency plans to counter events proactively instead of reactively. Some roles come to mind such as in Project Management and Health and Safety fields.

Hello good sir! Honestly, this video made me think differently oh how to be in the employer's shoes and what they are seeking for a future employee. I'm sure like many others, I've attempted the police officer psychological exam two years ago and failed. However, your advice and hopefully more content can make me feel more confident and ready for the next attempt. Thanks again :)

I’m so glad I came across your video. I did a insurance agent SLP assessment and passed. You gave me confidence and reassured me how to be consistent. Thank you!

I didn't pass an original personality test for a role that I'm already doing as a consultant even though I was strongly encouraged to apply for the role by my (client side) boss and her boss, too. They've re-advertised the role and now I'm going for it again. Here's hoping it goes well. I feel much more prepared this time round. Thank you. 😊

This was soo helpful for me, you're great. I ended up getting a job. Keep it up. Thank you

Somethings we know but it is always good to hear from someone who explains beautifully. Clears confusion .Thanks for the video

Thank you- felt reassured that my answers fitted the requirements - no real difference between what I would put and the answers given. I feel reassured.

Seen this video and attended a test for a leading bank in UK. I have cleared the round and funguses crossed for rest of the rounds. Thank you so much Richard ☺️

Basically it doesn't matter if you are honest or not. What matters is telling them what they want to hear.

It was so kind and thoughtful of you to take the time to do this video. Thank you

You definitely teach better than all the universities combined. Thank you 🙏🏼.

Richard, i watched this just before taking one of these tests and got very positive results. Your teaching really works! Many thanks!

Unfortunately HR/companies wants us to tell lie. Rather why can't they train new candidates of how to go about with those skills than to just reject them on the base of truth that they disclosed.

Unfair question. Agree. Sometimes we have to strive to make things possible even when things are not fair.

I want to thank you for this information. The hiring process is not the same back in the day. Thank you for the examples and explanation on my hiring process. Good luck everyone!

Helping people is a perfect example for me even my mum said that 🥰

I’ve been searching all over for help with an online test for a job. I’ve failed it twice before. This video is going to help me tremendously. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.

doing a personaity test in 1 hour for my first internship ever.. im so excited i need to get into this

Q13. Agree. Reality isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In order to be truly realistic, one must embrace the negative as well.

Thank you so much for this. I'm job hunting after working for the same company for several years and these assessments are fairly stressful to answer.

Thank youuu soo much I found your channel! I passed the value assessment test and interviews because of your useful, helpful and very informative videos !💕 More power! 😊

Thanks. this video is a blessing it helped me pass my personnel board and get my firefighter career started

There's some great insight here that helps me view the questions a little differently then I would have originally thought. Thank you.

Thanks Richard. This video has been very informative and gave me a better understanding of personality test questions.

I wish I had seen this video before my assessment yesterday, I was not able to go to the next step with the job, this video was helpful.

thank you so much Richard for creating this video, helps a ton

Thanks. I always come out as dishonest on these because I'm being truthful. So I'll have to be dishonest to appear trustworthy. 😒

Dear Sir, Your Video was so valuable to clearly understand how to answer those personality questions. I learned so many things which I did not know so far. God Bless you ...!

Thank you so much!!! Very helpful!

I am so glad I came across your video! Helpful and very informative video! Thank you!

Where was this guy five years ago lol. He is a genius. This video is awesome.

Great viewing. It is very practical and insihgtful

Best video for preparations for the personality test. Great explanations of those tricky questions.

Great insight if you’re teeter on how to answer these types of questions in the past. Thank you

Thanks Richard. This video has been very informative and gave me a better understanding of personality test questions. I like the way you explain and give reason(s) as to why.

That was very useful as these tests tend to be pretty tricky and rightly pointed, especially strongly agree/disagree ones. phew! I feel more confident now. Thanks Richard.

I passed the assessment test, thanks for sharing. Love your videos they are soooo helpful!

Amazing explanation. Thank you very much for your sharing.

When you are told there are no wrong answers that is completely wrong. There are right answers. The wrong answers end your progress in the interview. Personality tests should never have been introduced into job interviews, but someone needed something to sell to lazy HR departments. If we followed how long employees remained and tried to justify that with the personality test there would be an interesting case.

Excellent and helpful video. Thanks so much for taking the time to put this information together.

Great video. Thanks a ton for the help.

Thank you much for this video! I am going to do Personality test in now. I am really grateful for this tips 🙏

I get excited when I am asked to work on a difficult project 🙃 best describes me 😊

Really good guidelines; thank you very much! 😊

Absolutely,my best teaching ever. Thanks. It has really help me to think before my test. Awesome teaching🎉🎉🎉🎉

Incredibly helpful! Thank you so much! On to taking my test!!

Can I ask what your answers would be "True" or False" questions, on the first two you showed? "I take risks" and "I find routine boring". I am moving to my 3rd step interview, for a Admin Asst. and it is a personality test. Thank you for taking the time to walk though what a test could look like. I have been told to be honest as possible. But I like the way you explained, to put yourself in the hiring managers shoes. Thank you.

You are really nice person thank you for this tutorial ❤

This is a great video to say the least, thank you very much!

the way i would approach it (preferably during college) is to have the personality test and the answers should be honest .Based on my results , i would identify my opportunity areas ( across the 10 skills mentioned above ) and work on getting the right training /coaching to improve on them . eventually , i will be working in a real life environment and i should be able to demonstrate an authentic personality traits .That would be my approach

You are really great person, Sir. Happy Christmas!)

Very helpful! I was very nervous about a personality test I have to submit in a few hours but feel a lot better about it now. Thank you!

Thank you so much Sir Richard!

An interesting take on these personality types! Thanks for sharing to inspire my MBTI channel. Randomly discovered your channel through the KZfaq algorithm! 🤟🤟🤟

This video feels like it will be very helpful with passing my Armed Security Psychological Assessment Test, unless you have another video you suggest.

I see that your approach is to draw a connection between the job description and the questionnaire, and answer accordingly, but it rarely seems so cut and dried in my experience. There is a negative interpretation to any of the possible answers to these questions. Strongly Agree or Strongly Disagree? Then you are too inflexible. Somewhat agree or disagree? Then you are not true to your beliefs. Neutral? Then you are non-commital. Prefer to work alone? Then you're not a team player. Work well with others? Then you're not self-motivated; and if you agree to both, then you're contradicting yourself. If I said "I put people I work with at ease," and then said "I prefer obedient people over carefree people," I would expect a hiring manager to think that I do not like the people I work with, that I am not good at getting people to obey, or that one of those statements was false. My usual goal is to be honest so that I do not get caught in a lie, but these tests clearly discourage honesty from the applicants. I suppose the choice is to NOT work for an employer that psychologically profiles me (very unlikely), or figure out what they want and do my best to act like I am those things (but not too much because then I'll either seem self-important, or overly eager to please). I think a more useful video would be about how to decipher job descriptions to know what they are looking for. Rarely do I find myself in a situation where I can tell from reading a job description or the company's values statement what answer in the questionnaire will get me to the next phase.

Very helpful and appreciate your candor.

Thank you Sir. I appreciate your education on this subject.

Very effective! Thanks

I like how I was worried if I was doing something wrong but when I watched this video it’s exactly what I was doing. I like working alone: true or false My answer would be true but I’m forced to put false. Pretty much doing the opposite for most questions lmao.

Thank you for this video, Richard.

@19:33 Question 5: I work best if I am working in a team How about for a manager or director post? If I agree, it's saying that I can't think by myself to make decisions? And if I say disagree, it's saying I work best if I'm alone and that I don't like to work with people? Excellent video by the way

I took one of these tests recently and after watching your video I realized I def should have lied on the assessment. Anyhow I have another one coming up and from your point of view I am feeling a little less anxious about it. My confidence was shot. Fingers crossed

This was very well done. Explains most, if not all concepts clearly. Made everything so much easier.

Awesome! Thank you (took notes)

Wow... This really amazing idea... Well explained thank you sir!

Great video. Its has opened my eyes to many aspects that I've would never realize by myself. Congrats.

It is the best video to pass personality test easily, thank you very much,

The unfair world question is tough. Answer "strongly agree" on that one and they might think you're a psychopath that might come in and shoot up the place due to a perceived injustice on the job.

A gem of a tutorial..

You confirmed most of my own thoughts on this; but I would like to share a unique test that I just took. At the end, I do have 2 questions. I just applied on a temp staffing app for bartenders. First... If you are the staffing company, you are looking for someone who is adventurous enough to show up at an unfamiliar location, get tossed into an unknown setting, and work with people they don't know. If you are the restaurant or bar, you are looking for someone who will perform the monotonous task of making drinks all night (they aren't looking for somebody to come in and tell them how they like to make a drink that makes it different or special or better). Do you answer for the staffing company or the bar? Second... The answer scale didn't range from Agree to Disagree, it was 5 steps from "Slightly True" to "Very True" without a place of neutrality. The questions were all the same or similar to the examples you gave, there was no option to not agree with the statement. If there is no "Neutral," do you answer "Slightly True" even if you don't agree with the statement?

You helped me land a job! Thank you!!

Hi Richard! Loved your videos and it did help me in preparation for my test. Just to let u know that in my PAPI test they served 7 possible answers/responses; Strongly Disagree/Disagree/Slightly Disagree etc . Perhaps your future video on personality test could factor in this variant. The toughest question i got just fyi if you’re curious is; I would never tell a lie! That stumped me! Had to ask SiRi for help LOL 😂

Wow, what a great way to figure out I have none of these qualities!!

Excellent insight and information.

Hi Richard, I’d like to thank to you and share that I have passed the amazon online assesment today. Your video helped me alot in understanding the general concept.

To the question of "We live in an unfair world" I would say "Strongly Agree" because it is absolutely true.

12// strongly agree/ to feel this way is my motivation to do the job whether it is monotonous. I am doing my part as a team member (the bigger picture)

Agree- look at the requirements of the job to determine the anaswer "I work best in a team". I am able to do both, but if the job req more independance then I would choose disagree but not strongly.

"be 100% honest on your answers" lies on literally the next question

Great vid, I really appreciate you taking the time to make it and share it. However I disagree with the answer for: "You can't judge a book by its cover." I would have to think that most employers would be looking for "strongly agree" on that question.

Thanks. I totally agree you have to answer from the employer point of you and how you'd want to candidate to think. I always have problems how to answer the sympathizing because I saw it as being nosy, but I guess you want to sympathize for this test purpose.

Great advice. I always hesitate to answer, "If you disagree with your boss, the CEO, would you let your boss know. I'm not sure what the employers are looking for. Does someone voice his/her disagreement with the boss all the time; therefore, the person is not a good fit? Or someone who is honest and is looking out for the organization? I've learned to be tactful and voice only when matters, because the higher you go up, the more fragile egos you are dealing with.

That you for this video it helped me not be afraid of these kinds of assessments, u were also helpful with giving me the confidence to follow through and think positive about passing. I took the assessment test for the position and I’m getting a call back, so thank you.

They always say its not a pass or fail. BS did you not get the job based on your answers. Then you fail. I have noticed a trend that companies that employ these type of questionnaires tend to have extreamly toxic environments.

Thank you Richard for the tips trick! Very helpful

Thank you so much for your help it’s sounds good

What do “daydreaming” questions measure on a personality test? I got 3 of them....”I seldom like to daydream” “I like to daydream” “I find myself daydreaming often”

We pass these tests by refusing to be a part of discriminatory practices that isolate and condemn applicants based on their "personality." Not only are these practices immoral, they are unethical in any form. Good luck to you all. If you are ever faced with this decision, think about working for a company that isolates the exact personality traits and trash bins the rest of the applicants. Not sure if you want to work for garbage companies like that, but applicants that are aware of these illegal practices will never be a part of those process's. Thanks for the video.

This video was very helpful. Thank you.
