Managerial & Professional
Aptitude Tests
The Managerial and Professional Series tests, suitable for various education levels, evaluate reasoning, problem-solving, and complex relationship skills. Ideal for graduate recruitment to senior management assessment and development. Our two tests — numerical and verbal reasoning — capture key attributes essential for management roles.
What are Managerial & Professional Tests?
Professional & Managerial assessment tests are a standard tool to evaluate a candidate's suitability for high-level management positions. These tests are often presented in the form of questions related to a realistic workplace setting.
Management assessment testing can be carried out directly by an employer or with the assistance of a recruitment consultant. The approach will vary from company to company and even from role to role. Successful application of managerial and professional level aptitude tests will help employers identify skills that are crucial in management, leadership and other kinds of professional roles.
Exploring Varieties of Management & Professional Tests
Diverse aptitude tests serve specific purposes, evaluating verbal and numerical reasoning among other skills such as concentration, accuracy and comprehension.
Compared to general aptitude tests, management and professional assessments tend to be more intricate, often requiring complex calculations and higher levels of critical thinking. These assessments encompass:
- Verbal reasoning tests
- Numerical reasoning tests
- Deductive reasoning tests (part of our Specialist Series)
As an interviewer, employing a range of managerial-level testing techniques allows you to spotlight candidates' talents and determine their suitability for management and senior roles. This alignment between applicants and positions is paramount for successful hiring.

eras customer service is one of the best I have seen.
I was introduced to eras many years ago, and throughout my HR career I have found their services extremely professional , and more importantly, extremely accurate in terms of the candidate profiling outcome. Whether I was using a recruitment or a development service the level of detail available to bolster my decision making was invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend eras and the team to anyone.
The Psychometric Portal is a very good tool to use in recruitment selection and staff development
We are delighted to recommend the use of eras products for use within both recruitment campaigns and for employee development. The tools that we use for both purposes have a good level of flexibility and can be matched against roles of all types and levels within our business.
eras are a real pleasure to work with. As well as great customer support, they always go the extra mile and are very responsive to our needs. The Psychometric Portal® is extremely user friendly as well as completely customisable with our own branding.
What I like about The Quest Profiler® is the wealth of different outputs it provides, from team styles to conflict handling, and from culture matching to competencies. You would normally have to use multiple personality tools to achieve this, but they all come from the same 25 minute questionnaire!
I thoroughly enjoyed the Ability and Personality courses at eras. The trainers are very knowledgeable, bringing the subject of psychometrics to life, and there is a nice blend of practical and theory to cement learning objectives in place. I highly recommend it to HR, L&D or Recruitment professionals!
The eras team provide exceptional support that is not only professional but human as well. No 'ask' is ever too much and any queries or concerns I have are addressed promptly, reflecting a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction.
