How do you answer correctly on Exsel Questionnaires? The personality tests for sales positions?

Often companies ask you to take one of those personality tests that are about 180 questions and are 30 minutes long. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on taking one of them. I have to take one for this company that I have been interviewing for and it is impairative that my answers are in line. If anyone could offer any advice it would be much appreciated. It is one of those test that ask: do you believe in war, are you content....

When a company asks you to take those personality tests, they are trying to look at your "intangibles". They want to see if your personality is right for that particular position. By answering each question honestly, the outcome of the test will be the most accurate of who you are and what your "intangibles" will bring to the table. Then the company will then be able to tell the basics such as your dominance, extroversion, patience and conformity. Most of those tests are amazingly accurate. If you want the job, relax, take your time with it and answer as best as you see fit.





Hopefully that helps...
Reply:I have no idea. I fail everytime. Maybe the trick is to not look at the questions and just randomly mark answers lol.
Reply:You want to come across as a GOD.


They can't pass you up. If they did, they would be making a terrible mistake.





Often, they are looking for leaders. Somebody that has to make tough decisions, not somebody who is unsure of themselves and needs to rely upon the answers other people give them.


Keep that in mind.





YES I believe in WAR. I choose to fight for my beliefs and ideals and not laying around and letting other people defeat me or just plain giving up.





P.S. I gave up too easily in the past because I didn't believe in War.

  1. Well heres the thing: If you trick them into hiring you based on answers that really arent "you" then once you do get hired, how long will you last. If the job aint for you, it just aint for you...

    And the more I take these tests, the more I realize that maybe I should be grateful that i DON'T fit in to what they want
