Frequently asked questions
Which SHL test will I get?
Your SHL invitation (usually through TalentCentral) or the employer's email names it. SHL has single Verify tests (Numerical, Verbal, Inductive, Deductive, Checking, Calculation, Reading Comprehension, Mechanical), the combined Verify G+, the Verify Interactive versions, a situational judgement test and the OPQ. If you do not know, practice numerical, verbal, deductive and inductive: that covers G+ and the most used single tests.
What is Verify G+?
Verify G+ is one test of 30 questions in 36 minutes: ten numerical, ten deductive and ten inductive, mixed and adaptive (the difficulty adjusts to your answers). Here you practice the three parts separately, in fixed sets with explanations, and then together: the three timed practice tests at the bottom of this page each have 30 questions in 36 minutes, ten per part, mixed. Our clock and score are our own, not an SHL norm.
What is Verify Interactive?
The mobile version of Verify: you drag bars in a chart, rank people or tap cells in a grid instead of clicking an option. Each test takes eighteen minutes. Read our explanation of the three interactive tasks; numerical, deductive, inductive and G+ are practiced here interactively, with the same tasks as at SHL.
In which language is the test?
The employer decides. Many Dutch employers run the SHL tests in English; SHL's own Dutch practice page offers only verbal and numerical in Dutch. So practice in the language of your invitation: this page exists in English and in Dutch with the same parts.
Can you prepare for an SHL test?
Yes. SHL itself publishes example questions and practice tests (SHL Direct) and says they familiarise you with the question forms and that the real test's difficulty may differ. The same holds for our sets: you learn the forms, the pace and the traps, with an explanation for every answer.
How does SHL's situational judgement test work?
In SHL's practice test (Behaviour at Work) you get eleven work situations with four responses each, and you rate each response on its own as less or more effective; there is no time limit. Our sets work the same way. SHL counts every rating; we count a situation as right when all four ratings are right, and the explanation says why for each response.
Are these the real SHL questions?
No. All questions are our own, written in the forms SHL shows in its own examples. The clock, the number of questions and the score are our own practice measure; SHL reports a percentile against a norm group, which we cannot reproduce.
What does this practice not cover?
The simulations (contact centre, Excel, coding, email writing), the video interview, the assessment centre and the questionnaires without right answers (OPQ, behaviour-based, biodata; do look at the OPQ example).
CEB, Gartner or SHL?
The same tests. SHL was part of CEB from 2012 to 2018 and briefly of Gartner, and has been SHL again since 2018. An invitation for a "CEB test" or "Gartner assessment" is an SHL test.
