Applied for the Graduate Thermal Engineer role and did the Arctic shores assessment.
Got a mail on 18th Oct (closing date) saying I passed the first assessment and the next step will be the screening of my application and sharing it with the responsible hiring managers.

Anyone know what to expect from the Virtual Assessment Centre day?

It's a set of games. Like there's one where you need to press the left or right arrow depending on the prompts appearing on the screen. Another one where you need to fill up a balloon and guess when it would burst and stop filling before it happens. A game where you need to play the pause game: stop the rotating wheel on an exact number and so on. The test doesn't require any preparation other than being alert, responsive and focussed. Just see it as a game and have fun playing.
Same here. Applied for Data Management when the portal opened.

Have asked someone who got an offer last year, saying the AC will only be hosted starting in December... That's still a long time to go.

Hi, just wondering how long did they take them to send this email to you, after you completed the Arctic shores assessment.

The job opening description said "The Job Posting will be open until the 18th of October 2022" and I got my mail on the 18th itself. I must have given the test not earlier than 2 weeks prior to that.
hi everyone. I did the test last week, still waiting for the results. the wait is very stressful though!

I applied for the Graduate Mechanical Engineering role. Did the online tests and passed through to the review stage. I have done the arctic shores test multiple times but always used to fail. I think it depends on how you approach the tests. They are not looking for you to play the tests as a game.

The point of the balloon popping game pretty much is to identify how many clicks it takes for each to balloon to pop. I think there are 4 or 5 different balloons and once you figure out, its pretty much easy.

The game that requires you to press p and q is testing your ability to recover from mistakes. So it is ok to get stuff wrong but as long as you recover quickly its a positive.

There is also a memory test. So it might be worth it to do some memory apps.

There is also a higher or lower game where if you choose the same as the computer, you both get the same amount but if you choose less than the computer you get more points.

There is a game where you look at pictures of cartoonish people and are asked to click what emotion they are displaying which is pretty weird.

The 2 games which i dont really understand are the power generator, where you have to keep clicking random buttons which may cause the power to increase or go down, and the locking mechanism game which tests your focus.
