Has anyone taken a 'McQuaig' occupational test?

smirkyguy

I've got one next week as part of a job interview and I was wondering what sort of questions to expect. I've been told it will take 20 minutes so I'm assuming it's just like any other skills assessment test with a mixture of numeracy and literature questions thrown in.

Any info greatly appreciated! :beer:

Doesn't anyone have any information on McQuaig On-Line word surveys? I'd also like to know what format it takes and any tips?

i had this test 3 weeks ago.
The occupational test was easy . u hav 50questions ,15 mins, the questions are sort of : what is the next number - 2,5,9,14, x ; a goy bought few cars ,he paid 10 000 for them and sold them for 15 000 ,on each car he made a profit of 500, how many cars did he buy ; Fire is to Ice as Water is to .... and then choose from 4 options . many of the tasks were like this: make a sentence of these words and write the first letter of the second word . I found ,however, the vocabulary part a bit hard ( but English is not my first language) ,there were few words I have never come across and you have to choose a synonim from 5 options, the words were: audicious, tardy, debase,dreath ,palirysy (the last two I do not remebr proper spelling). Overall, nothing difficult and you are NOT expected to do all the questions. I managed to do 45 .

The word survey ,you can download it from macquaid website. I would strongly recommend to look up the meaning in their dictionary as some of the words might be interpreted in the wrong way...

Good luck.I hope it will help someone ,as I myself could not find any info about .
