The ability to learn, think, communicate, remember, or make decisions are a must-have for individuals who are applying for employment. A Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test (CCAT) is used by employers to measure these aspects in candidates who have applied for a job. The duration of the pre-employment test is 15 minutes, and it features 50 questions in Math, Logical reasoning and spatial (abstract) reasoning.

The test provides employers with knowledge about a potential employee’s reasoning skills, verbal skills, mathematical abilities, problem-solving skills, etc. The test provides a near accurate measurement of these parameters that help recruiters make informed recruitment decisions.

Compared to a 1-hour interview, the duration of the cognitive assessment test is short, which saves time for both candidates and hiring managers. Employers can avoid bad hires and quickly identify high potential candidates who will be successful in the job.

The broad components of cognitive tests are analytical, numerical, verbal, quantitative etc.
