Tests can help you:
! to be fairly assessed in a competitive situation
! to be comprehensively assessed for selection purposes
Tests enable Qantas:
! to select people best suited to the demands of the job
! to identify areas of weakness for staff development
! to place personnel appropriately within an organisation
What sort of tests will you do?
The psychometric testing component of the Qantas pilot selection process will
require you to complete a number of tests and questionnaires. All tests that you
complete will be on a computer.
Aptitude Tests
You will be asked to complete four aptitude tests. These tests will assess your
verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning, diagrammatic and spatial abilities. All
aptitude tests have time constraints. This practice leaflet contains samples of
tests that require you to:
! evaluate the logic of given statements
! interpret data from statistical tables
! recognise logical sequences within a series of diagrams
! manipulate shapes in three dimensions
Please note that there are two versions of diagrammatic tests contained in this
leaflet. You will be asked to complete only one of these tests. We are unable to
tell you in advance which of these tests you will be asked to complete. We have
therefore included items from both tests to enable you to thoroughly prepare.
Personality and Motivation Questionnaires
The Qantas psychometric testing process also contains questionnaires related to
your personal style and motivation in the workplace. This practice leaflet contains
examples of the questionnaire items that you will be asked.
In order to familiarise yourself with the type of questions that may be asked, read
and follow the instructions contained in this practice leaflet for each test and
questionnaire.
This practice leaflet has been designed to introduce you to the types of tests that
you will be asked to complete as part of the Qantas pilot selection process.
The tests and questionnaires that you will complete measure skills that are
directly relevant to the position of Qantas pilot.
