People should learn from their mistakes. Although the answers to the numerical tests are listed within the book, there are no EXPLANATIONS as to how to solve the problems! Therefore, how can someone improve if they get an answer wrong and do not understand the steps that must be taken to produce the correct answer? This has led to frustration.

If you have been asked to go through an aptitude test, rest assured that you will find similar example questions in this book. It covers a wide variety of tests designed for graduate, senior and managerial positions in a wide range of industries. Furthermore, there are 35 tests designed by SHL, regularly used in the recruitment process of large-size organisations. The book is very well structured and the reader can easily spot and isolate the tests of interest. However, they are highly addictive, so you may end up spending hours or days, trying to solve all of them… There are also chapters dedicated to the preparation stage, the interview and the assessment process. The author does not try to cover all possible cases and questions you might encounter; she focuses on the key-elements that make a candidate successful. And she manages to emphasize the important information while using a plain and humorous language. I strongly recommend this book!
