Swift Technical Aptitude
Swift Technical Aptitude is designed for use with production workers, apprentices, engineers, designers and scientists working in technical roles. The assessment measures practical reasoning through short spatial (3 mins), mechanical (3 min) and diagrammatic (4 mins) sub-tests and is suitable for all practical roles.
Swift Technical Aptitude (Hard Copy)
This paper and pencil assessment is ideal for use with groups of candidates, and when testing individuals in locations such as hotels or on site where computer availability and Internet connectivity are problematic.
The assessment is particularly useful when time is at a premium e.g. at Assessment Centres and in advance of interviews, and can be used as a standalone tool or to cross-check results of an unsupervised online assessment.
Swift Technical Aptitude (Supervised Access)
This online assessment is exclusively available to Oasys users and presents the same content as the hard copy version. Due to its self-administering, interactive format it is ideal for use when regularly testing individuals in a specific location with good Internet connectivity, and with groups of candidates in dedicated testing centres. The assessment is particularly useful in advance of line manager or panel interviews, and can be used as a standalone tool or to cross-check results of an unsupervised online assessment.
Swift Technical Aptitude (Invited Access)
This online assessment is available to Oasys and Bureau users and presents one of many parallel versions assembled from content that is completely separate from the supervised versions. The self-administering, interactive format in conjunction with economical time limit (10 minutes total testing time) makes this tool ideal for unsupervised assessments. It can be taken from any place with computer and good Internet connectivity e.g. home; office; library; internet café. The assessment tool can be deployed as a stand alone tool in talent audit and self-development situations, or as a screening tool in a multi-stage recruitment process. For 'High-stakes' appointment decisions Saville Consulting strongly recommend re-testing under supervised conditions. Swift Technical Aptitude can be combined with Swift Comprehension Aptitude in career guidance settings to obtain a comprehensive profile of General Reasoning Ability and profile pattern across six aptitude areas.
