“Success Driver Assessment: The key to the on-line assessment is an objective evaluation of your strengths and opportunities. An important tip here is not to be too modest: a hiring manager might appreciate this, but in the end, it’s your skills and achievements that matter and make you a powerful candidate.

Reasoning Test: I treated the RT as a serious exam: I practiced beforehand with similar on-line tests, and tried to find patterns and principles to generalize the answer to each problem. I think the most important thing is to have a clear structure to follow, and know what to look for in each problem to reach the solution. This not only allows you to easily verify your solution at any point, but also greatly reduces the time you need to solve the problems. So, remember: always have a step-by-step approach, which you can drill down if necessary.”

“My recruiting process with P&G was fast and professional!

It started with the online SDA test, which I found to be very nice – not a lot of companies in Romania look at your personality and how it may fit within the company.

I was invited for a Reasoning Test. I had heard that it was a difficult part of the process, therefore I prepared a lot. I was working online tests, GMAT-like exercises and all sort of reading examples. When I got to the test, I was pleasantly surprised to see that not only did I fit within the time, but I had quite a few left to check my answers.

The next day, I got my answer and was invited for the next phase – the interviews, which were really trilling!”
