Initial online assessments

[Anon87]

Hello

I’m just about to complete the initial online tests for two TOCs that I’ve applied for. What I would like to know is, if I fail one of them (or both) does this count as one of my two lives?

Should also add that one of them is an OPC assessment (magnificent 7 and VSE).

TIA

I’ve been told by the OPC that neither of the two tests are part of the two lives. However if you fail either test you can’t apply for the same role at that company for six months, but you are free to apply for the same role at a different company

sorry but do you mean the SJT does not count towards two lives? thank

Correct, failing the initial SJT (the one you do at home) won’t take away any of your lives

What about an OPC one at home?

From my experience, the only tests done at home via the OPC are the Magnificent 7 Situation Judgment Test and the Visual Search Exercise. I’ve been told by an OPC worker that neither of those will take away a life if you fail them

They don't take away a life of the other psychometric tests , but you only get two goes at them. So if you fail the magnificent seven sjt or the vse twice , although they are not part of the main test's , you won't be able to apply to tocs that use them.

Got you. So if you fail one it takes a life away from the enhanced option.

Does anyone know if the majority of TOCs use enhanced or standard?

That's correct. Unfortunately I know some that take enhanced. But I'm not sure which one's don't .
