What Is A Watson Glaser Assessment?

If you’re applying for a job in the competitive technology industry, it’s likely you’ll have to take an aptitude test or personality assessment as part of the recruitment process. That’s where assessment providers like Watson Glaser come in. Watson Glaser has a range of tests that encourage candidates to think outside the box as they answer questions on skills related to the role they’re applying for. The assessment consists of 40 questions that need to be completed within 20-30 minutes:

How Watson Glaser Tests Work

The test itself is split into the following five sections:

Section 1 – Inference

In this section you will be given a passage of information and a related statement. You will then need to decide whether the statement is true, false or if you cannot say, based on the information you’ve read.

Section 2 – Recognising assumptions

Again, you’ll be given a short passage of information and a statement which is more of an assumption. You will then need to decide whether the assumption can be made from the information provided. This is to test your ability to separate fact from fiction.

Section 3 - Deduction

After reading through some information, you'll have to decide whether the associated conclusions are justified or not.

Section 4 - Interpretation

Here, you’ll need to look at the weight of various arguments relating to a particular issue. The passage of text will follow with a conclusion, and you will be asked to determine whether this conclusion is accurate, given the information provided

Section 5 – Evaluation of arguments

Determining the strength or weakness of an argument is what you’re being assessed on here. You’ll read a question followed by an argument, and then you’ll need to decide whether the argument is directly related to the question and if it’s important or not.
