Example question of a Cubiks - Numerical Intermediate - Word Problem question. Click here for a free practice test!

The answer to the example above is E, "Thursday 25 September". Today is August 11th. August has 31 days which means that it will be September 11th  in exactly 31 days. This leaves 45 – 31 = days; 11 + 14 = 25, thus the exam presentation will take place on September 25  Now we need to determine on which day this will fall. Today is Monday. Monday + 1 week is Monday; there are 6 weeks and 3 days in 45 days. Monday + 3 days brings us to Thursday so the exam presentation will happen on Thursday, September 25th.

Advanced Numerical Ability Test
Cubiks Advanced Numerical Ability Tests consist of questions where the candidate is given tables of statistical and numerical data, and questions about these tables are asked. The candidate has to choose from a set of possible answers. This test typically takes around 25 minutes, and consist of 20 questions.

Example question of a Cubiks Advanced Numerical Ability question.

The answer to the example question above is 40 million. This can be calculated as follows:

13+13+14=40

The Cubiks Abstract Ability Test is used to assess an individual's ability to analyze, evaluate and draw logical inferences from diagrammatic data. To do this, the candidate is required to identify patterns in diagrams and identify a missing or following diagram in the given series. 

Intermediate Abstract Ability Test
Cubiks Intermediate Abstract Ability Tests consist of a given row of 5 diagrams where a logical pattern is to be found. The task of the candidate is to choose the correct logical next diagram from a set of 5 different answers. This test typically takes around 4 minutes, and consist of 10 questions.

Example question of a Cubiks Intermediate Abstract Ability question. Click here for a free practice test!

The right answer of the example question above is C.  The pattern is: there is a balance when the sum of the amount of blocks multiplied by the distance to the middle is the same on the left and right side.

Advanced Abstract Ability Test
Cubiks Advanced Abstract Ability Tests is essentially the same as the Intermediate test, but the difficulty of the patterns and the number of patterns that can be found is higher. This test typically takes around 15 minutes, and consist of 30 questions.

Example question of a Cubiks Advanced Abstract Ability question.

The right answer in the example question above is B. There are two patterns to be found.

Pattern 1: The large circle turns 60 degrees counter clockwise every step.  

Pattern 2: The small circle turns 120 degrees counter clockwise every step.

Cubiks also publishes several personality and motivational questionnaires. These tests are designed to give an insight into an individual's personality and drivers, but also their preferences in the workplace. Remember, there are no right or wrong answers in these tests and also, the test is not timed. The most commonly used Cubiks personality test is the PAPI 3. This test explores the drivers and preferred working styles of candidates. Based on this information strengths and weaknesses of the candidate in relation to the specific job are identified.

The Cubiks Situational Judgement Test assesses a candidate's aptitude and suitability for a potential role based on their responses in a decision-making scenario that is often related to the working environment. This test is commonly used by recruiters who go through a high volume of applicants. According to Cubiks, the SJT can automatically screen out between 30% and 50% of total applicants.

In a Situational Judgment Test, a number of situations will be presented to you and you will have to pretend to be present in that specific situation. With that in mind, you are going to have to respond or react to these situations.

Example of an SJT question. Click here for a free practice test!

In the example above the first reaction should be the least likely to do and the third the most likely to do.

The first reaction is not a particularly appropriate response because you are expected to be able to prioritize your daily activities. Although you have your responsibilities to your team, the wider business should be of optimum priority and the project manager would not have asked you if it is not important.

The third reaction is the most effective response. Because you are trying to accommodate both projects, which are important.
