What is the EB Jacobs Assessment?

EB Jacobs has devised a test battery that involves cognitive abilities, personality traits, and the portrait of past experience. The EB Jacobs Entry-Level Exams are generally sectioned into the following assessments: 1. Cognitive Ability Test. 2. Work Styles Questionnaire. 3. Life Experience Survey.

This group of tests was developed with an eye toward ensuring that candidates who are hired possess a high degree of requisite skills.

Questions and exam passages address aspects of the particular public safety field being tested. Each position title carries its own number of questions and exam duration.

For example, the Work Styles Questionnaire in the Law Enforcement Aptitude Battery (LEAB) is comprised of 74 items with a time limit of 15 minutes, whereas the Questionnaire in the Fire Service Assessment Battery (FSAB) presents 224 items with a time frame of 45 minutes.

EB Jacobs, Public Safety Tests, are used in the hiring of the following positions:

  • Law Enforcement Aptitude Battery (LEAB).
  • Fire Service Assessment Battery (FSAB).
  • Bus Operator Selection System (BOSS).
  • Various Government Positions.

EB Jacobs is part of PSI, the leading workforce credentialing and testing services company with over 30 million assessments delivered annually in 50 plus languages.
