Granted, I have to turn over all the stones--it's the analytical part of me--but the gutt is not usually wrong.

Suppose the tests have some place in the selection process.

Shootingstar... hope your situation for the job works out the way you would like.
Oy..I'm just coming up for air now. Am in throes of preparing a presentation for another employer. Part of the competition.

Will say this test was administered by a large public sector employer.

Miranda, I have worked in the past, with some excellent HR managers where I had to interview and recruit staff for my dept. in conjunction with HR. A highly experienced and sharp HR manager, has excellent gut instinct. This has been proven..when months later, a HR related matter has surfaced. Unfortunately not all HR managers are the same ilke..sometimes I wonder if they feel 'used' /underappreciated.
