Hiring can be a guessing game, and employers want to hire the best workers for the job. To take some of the uncertainty out of the equation, many logistics, freight, and shipping companies use assessment tests and exams as part of the application process. These assessment tests may be aptitude tests, also known as psychometric tests, or they may be behavioral tests.
One of the fastest-growing behavioral tests, now used by UPS is the
Pymetrics Games. It is a series of 12 games assessing your in-game behavior to reveal personality traits.
Aptitude tests measure your skills in a particular area, such as mechanical aptitude, verbal reasoning, logical reasoning or numerical reasoning. Behavioral tests evaluate how you act in various workplace-related situations, and they include personality tests and situational judgment tests. You can prepare for any entrance exam that you will need to take using our Logistics, Freight, and Shipping Bundle, which includes study guides and practice tests tailored for specific job titles.
