Yes. At least I hope so. Other things would be mad. It's for an off cycle internship of 4 months duration or so. I have to eat and live somewhere at that time :P

Really? I though it was relatively straightforward, as far as I remember, but I guess I'd rather keep my mouth shut before I receive my rejection.

Don't be. HR explicitly said that the test gets progessively harder if you get the righ answer and vice versa. So if you end up on questions where you have no clue what to do, you can rest assured that you did at least relatively well. :smile:

No, I'm pretty sure he's correct. It supposedly adjusts to your ability level.

Quite sure indeed, the HR people stated this several times at the CITI presentation at uni.

EDIT: I even think it states this somewhere on the instructions page of the test. I think.

Them saying it or it being written down are two different things - I am pretty sure it doesnt matter how you answer the previous questions - but to be fair if I got one wrong i wouldn't know . so it is difficult to tell. the time limit is a killer though.
