Seriously? I have worked in companies that require them and I still see employees who are lazy and dumb! I have been looking for a job for months and am trying to figure out why its so important that I strongly agree or disagree on an application for a gas station! Have these test really improved the quality of the workers hired? Or is it just a way of seeing how many hoops you can get the person who wants this job to jump through?

Some businesses have policies that are used nationwide or statewide to determine the ability of an employee. If they can't pass this test, they don't hire them per policies. The lazy workers probably were able to pass the test and reverted to their original positions of laziness. If you are looking for something to supplement your income a data collecting business will work for you. Data entry is a huge business. You can help the government where all your asked to do is input 10 plates per month, should take about 10-15 minutes. With that you tell others about the opportunity and get a residual income from it.You would be placed in a position that will make you successful. If you want more info msg. me. |

The only point I can see in having you do a test like that in a job is to see what things you are good at. I know they give them at colleges and universities to help a student decide what they want to major in. When you take these tests enough you can actually mold your answers to be whatever they want to see from you. That is the unfortunate part of all of it. |
