For every graduate job and placement I've applied to, whenever they have a personality test or psychometric test, I always fail them. Never passed a single one, ever. I must have failed at least 20 by now.
These are the tests that have "no right answer" but you have to be "honest in your responses". An example of a question is something like:
'You and your colleague have been working on a project. You notice that your colleague has missed out a crucial piece of information and it is close to the deadline. What do you do?'
Then you are given a range of several different options, and you must pick the one you would do. Or they ask you to rank the options according to what you are most likely to do.
Or another example is something like 'I like working in high-pressure situations'.
Then you are given options: Strong agree, Agree, Neither agree or disagree, Disagree, Strongly disagree.
I must be going horribly wrong somewhere. No one can fail every single one of these tests. My personality really must not be suited to anything I apply for. Anyone else been in a similar situation and how do I solve this problem?
