How do I prepare for an assessment
An assessment is a collection of various tests, role plays and assignments to assess whether applicants would be able to perform a certain position well. If you are soon to participate in an assessment, you naturally want to look good and achieve a positive result; how do you prepare? Career Service can help you with that!
You can currently find tips on preparing for your assessment in the Brightspace Course Career Orientation. A handout for this topic is still a work in progress. This will follow as soon as possible. Do you want to get started with the assessment? Then look at the offer below.
