Identification Code

KFSL-00

About the assessment

The KFSL-00 is a standardized test that assesses the following four dimensions: cognitive abilities, behavioural competencies, traits, and motivational drivers.

Dimension 1 – Cognitive abilities

The assessment of this dimension is divided into three subtests: numerical reasoning, verbal reasoning and logical abilities.

For each question, you will select your response from the possible answers provided. The assessment is adaptive, which means that the system will select questions for you based on your previous responses and progress to more difficult questions when you answer correctly. These questions are individually timed. 

Dimension 2 – Behavioural competencies, Dimension 3 – Traits and Dimension 4 – Motivational drivers

These dimensions are assessed using questions related to the qualifications needed to effectively perform the job being staffed. You will rank the response options provided based on your preferences. These tests are not timed and you do not have to complete all the questions at one time. 

You do not have to complete the assessment at the same time, in one sitting, but it must be completed by the final deadline indicated in your invitation letter. 

You can complete the assessment from the location of your choice as long as you have a laptop or desktop computer available, with a high speed internet connection. Chromebooks or mobile devices cannot be used.
