Ability and Aptitude
Intelligence Test
Research has shown that cognitive ability testing is one of the most powerful predictors of a successful candidate's ultimate performance on the job. The Wonderlic Personnel Test is one of the most widely recognised tests of general cognitive ability. General cognitive ability, or general intelligence, refers to the level at which an individual learns, understands instructions and solves problems. The WPT focuses on assessing the learning potential of a candidate as opposed to their prior achievement. It provides quantitative insight into how easily individuals can be trained, how well they can adjust and solve problems on the job, and how satisfied they are likely to be with the demands of the job.
