Prove It! & IPAT, used by IBM and large corporates globally
IBM Kenexa provides the Prove It! skills tests, the IPAT cognitive assessments, and the Kenexa Leadership Assessment. Prove It! tests measure job-specific skills (Excel, typing, coding). IPAT tests measure general cognitive ability. Both are widely used in large corporate recruitment via IBM's Smarter Workforce platform.
Example questions in the style of this publisher's assessments.
IPAT Number Series: What comes next? 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, ___ (A) 72 (B) 84 (C) 96 (D) 108
Each number is multiplied by 2: 48×2=96. This is a geometric sequence with ratio 2. IPAT number series questions test pattern recognition. Practice identifying arithmetic, geometric, and mixed sequences.
Prove It! tests are job-specific. If you're tested on Excel, practice pivot tables, VLOOKUP, and data analysis.
IPAT tests are straightforward cognitive ability tests. Practice number series, analogies, and reading comprehension.
Kenexa tests are often used in large corporate ATS systems. They may be the first screening step.
Prove It! tests are job-specific skills assessments measuring proficiency in software (Excel, Word, PowerPoint), accounting, typing, data entry, and other job-relevant skills.
IPAT (Institute of Personality and Ability Testing) provides cognitive ability tests including the Culture Fair Intelligence Test (CFIT) and various numerical and verbal ability tests.
