Hello, I have an assessment with SWR next week for Guard position.

In regards to the customer service numerical test is this multiple choice, and is it things like percentages, fractions etc...? The sample link they have sent me only shows one question and it's extremely basic. I'm sure there must be more to it than addition.

HI is this in relation to the advert for commercial guard in May ? I applied but have heard nothing from them.

Good luck in your assessment.

Thank you, no this is non-commercial guard at Wimbledon depot. I applied end of April and didn't hear back until beginning of June so they will probably be getting back to you soon.

What have the supplies exactly? The practice material they send out will be similar but not identical to the assessments you have to complete on the day. Chances are it will be multiple choice, yes. Good luck!

They supplied a link to the OPC website where you can look up sample questions, I haven't found the site sufficient tbh. I will be happier with multiple choice questions though. Thank you :)

If you want to know a rough time frame I applied for commercial guard middle of Jan, got my start date last week for the end of September.

Good luck.

Although this thread is a little old now I’ve very recently put in for a guards role and surprisingly have got through to an assessment centre in two weeks time. The quickness has taken me by surprise especially reading various posts on here.

I’m pretty happy re most of the psychometric tests but haven’t studied maths since leaving school many many years ago. I’ve paid for and questions )

Does anyone have any suggestions or helpful tips for the Numerical test (NPT 2.1)

Thanks in advance
