Cut-e Aptitude Tests

These tests cover the main reasoning tests that you are used to seeing at an assessment day, including numerical, verbal and logical. Cut-e sometimes refer to these as “scales” and each test comes in a range of difficulty:

Numerical Ability Tests

These tests are designed to evaluate your ability to deal with numbers quickly and accurately. Cut-e incorporates many levels of difficulty into their tests, depending on the role you have applied for. The more difficult the test, the more complex the diagrams and tables are to interpret. A simple test will take 5 minutes but the more difficult tests will take 12 minutes. Take a look at our Cut-e numerical practice test to experience a simulated assessment.

Verbal Ability Tests

Cut-e’s verbal ability tests differ to traditional verbal reasoning tests. Unlike most of the verbal reasoning tests we have referenced previously, Cut-e tests require you to handle multiple, but shorter passages simultaneously. These passages incorporate more objective texts and they are organised in separate tabs so that only one tab is visible at any one time. You are expected to establish which tab has the necessary information in order to conclude your answer. There are various levels of difficulty and in the same as the numerical ability tests, vary in length according to complexity.

Abstract Logical Ability Tests

There are two versions of Cut-e’s logical ability tests. The first is typically used for technical roles such as engineering, It evaluates deductive reasoning capabilities and can take from 5 to 15 minutes to complete. The second is typically used for graduates and apprentices, and evaluate rule discovery abilities as well as inductive reasoning. They take between 5-12 minutes to complete.

Cognitive Ability Tests

There are 13 tests within this category varying in length and each one targets a different type of role. They include:

1-3 minutes

• Hand-eye co-ordination
• Short term memory
• Perception of speed
• Orientation

These are typically used for aviation-based roles including pilots, air traffic controllers

2-10 minutes

• Concentration
• Multi-tasking
• Visual thinking
• Reactivity
• Spatial Thinking
• Memory of faces
• Learning efficiency

These are typically used for customer facing roles, technical jobs and quality assurance.

15 minutes

E-tray test

Unlike most E-tray exercises, Cut-e’s version is only 15 minutes long. In this time you will need to manage an email inbox and prioritise tasks that are received according to the objectives that you will be briefed with beforehand.

Special Knowledge/Skills Tests

There are three types of specialist skills tests and they are very specific to the job specification:

1. The first type covers mechanical and technical reasoning. They are 15 minutes long and include 24 questions. They are typically used for engineering roles.
2. The second evaluates your language competency and covers ten languages: English, Spanish, German, Russian, Greek, Swedish, Portuguese, Norwegian, Finnish and Czech. It is 10 minutes long and will adapt the level of difficulty according to your answers.
3. Lastly, they have created a calculating capacity test used for engineering and technical type roles.
