Motivation Questionnaire (MQ)
The Motivation Questionnaire is recommended for the assessment of managers and professionals. The candidate has to indicate how much various factors motivate them in their work. It can be used on its own and as a companion to SHL personality questionnaires. Since motivation fluctuates as a function of time and changing circumstances, it is recommended that the candidates be retested quite often.
Occupational Personality Questionnaire, Normative Version (OPQ32n) for Managers, Experts and Graduates
In the normative format of OPQ32 individuals indicate the extent to which they agree or disagree with a series of statements on a scale of five, ranging from “completely agree” to “ I do not agree at all”. Its uncomplicated language and straightforward structure make the test accessible for everyone, however, due to its normative nature, we recommend it primarily for training and development purposes.
Occupational Personality Questionnaire, Ipsative Version (OPQ32i) for Managers, Experts and Graduates
In this version of the test the candidate has to make “forced choices”, that is, they have to indicate which in a block of four statements is most and least like them. The ipsative method ensures that the candidates cannot bias the result of the assessment. The test cannot be hand scored.
Mill Hill Vocabulary Scales Test
The test is a companion to the Raven’s Matrices which measure nonverbal intelligence. It contains words that an intelligent person would probably “know” yet would not be necessarily aware of their meaning. The candidate has to choose the synonym of the words from a list of alternatives.
Management and Graduate Item Bank (MGIB) for Middle Managers and Graduates
SHL’s arguably most widely used test battery, the Management and Graduate Item Bank measures logical reasoning with business-related verbal and numerical tasks. MGIB can be used in selection as well as development and promotion.
Test of Productive Thinking (TPT1.1)
Reasoning is necessary but not sufficient in most jobs: one needs original ideas as well. In many cases it is creativity that differentiates the outstanding and the average manager. This version was designed primarily for recent graduates and junior managers. The test is widely used as part of an Assessment Centre. The test measures in a structured way how creative the candidate is when facing problems, and how much they are able find solutions and explanations. Based on the answers of the candidate one can draw inferences about the fluency, diversity, and originality of their ideas.
Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG5)
Similar to NMG1, but it is a bit shorter test.
Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG4)
Similar to NMG1, but it is a new test in Hungary.
Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG3)
Similar to NMG1, but it is a new test in Hungary.
Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG2)
Measures the ability to make correct decisions or inferences from numerical data presented in graphs and charts. The tasks set and data presented are highly relevant to a range of management level jobs. Since calculators are allowed, the emphasis of the tests is put on understanding and interpreting rather than mental arithmetic.
