Test candidates on core Spatial Reasoning Hiring Test topics

Pattern Recognition: Pattern recognition is the ability to identify and detect recurring patterns or structures in given data. This skill is crucial as it allows individuals to make connections, solve problems, and draw conclusions based on similarities and regularities in visual information.

Visualization: Visualization is the skill of mentally representing and manipulating visual information in the mind's eye. It involves creating mental images, spatially arranging objects, and transforming shapes and structures without direct sensory input. Measuring this skill can indicate an individual's ability to mentally manipulate and comprehend spatial relationships.

Geometry: Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with the properties, relationships, and measurement of shapes and spaces. Assessing this skill can reveal an individual's understanding of geometric concepts, such as angles, lines, shapes, and their spatial properties, which are fundamental in spatial reasoning.

Mental Rotation: Mental rotation refers to the ability to mentally rotate or transform objects in the mind's eye. It involves mentally manipulating and visualizing two- or three-dimensional objects as if they were rotating in space. Measuring this skill can provide insights into an individual's spatial visualization abilities and their capacity for mentally manipulating objects.

Spatial Orientation: Spatial orientation is the ability to understand and maintain one's position and direction in relation to the surrounding environment. It involves perceiving and interpreting spatial cues, such as landmarks, distances, and directions. Measuring this skill can assess an individual's spatial awareness and their capacity to navigate and orient themselves in different spatial contexts.

Spatial Visualization: Spatial visualization is the skill of mentally representing and transforming visual information in the mind's eye to infer relationships between objects or imagine spatial configurations. It encompasses tasks such as mentally folding, unfolding, or rotating objects. Assessing this skill can provide insights into an individual's ability to mentally manipulate and comprehend spatial relationships.

Object and Space Perception: Object and space perception refers to the ability to perceive and comprehend three-dimensional objects and their relationships in space. It involves understanding the shape, size, position, and orientation of objects and their relative arrangement. Assessing this skill can provide insights into an individual's ability to interpret and mentally represent objects and their spatial relationships.

Spatial Relations: Spatial relations involve understanding and interpreting the relationships between objects in space. It includes tasks such as determining proximity, intersection, containment, or connectivity between objects. Measuring this skill can reveal an individual's ability to analyze and reason about the spatial relationships within a given context.

Mapping and Navigation: Mapping and navigation refer to the ability to understand and use maps, as well as navigate through physical or virtual spaces. It involves interpreting spatial symbols, coordinates, and directions to determine routes or locations. Assessing this skill can provide insights into an individual's navigational abilities, spatial memory, and their capacity to mentally represent and navigate spatial information.

What is Spatial Reasoning Test?

The Spatial Reasoning Test evaluates a candidate's ability to visualize, manipulate, and analyze complex spatial data. Companies use it to identify individuals with strong spatial analysis skills. This test is useful for roles in fields like architecture, engineering, and GIS.

What skills are evaluated in the Spatial Reasoning Test?

The test covers:

  • Pattern Recognition
  • Visualization
  • Geometry
  • Mental Rotation
  • Spatial Orientation
  • Spatial Visualization
  • Object and Space Perception
  • Spatial Relations
  • Mapping and Navigation.
Can I test Spatial Reasoning and Data Interpretation together in a test?

Yes, you can combine both skills in a single test. This is recommended to get a comprehensive view of a candidate's analytical capabilities. Check out our Data Interpretation, Numerical Reasoning & Spatial Reasoning Test.

Can I combine multiple skills into one custom assessment?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.

What is the cost of using this test?
