Aptitude Assessments

 

GRT1 (Graduate Reasoning test)

A comprehensive and accurate measure of mental ability, the GRT1 is designed to assess applicants for graduate, managerial and professional roles, and other jobs that require an above average level of reasoning ability. Research in the area of intelligence testing has repeatedly demonstrated that three aptitude domains most consistently correlate with general reasoning ability: verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning ability (Heim, 1970). Consequently the GRT1 is specifically developed to assess these domains of ability.

 

GRT2 (General Reasoning test)

These include general administrative, accounting and junior financial roles, as well as technician roles.

Consequently the GRT2 is specifically developed to assess these domains
