Assessment preparation

On this page, you will find all the information and documents you need to prepare for an assessment at In Good Company.

Preparing for the interview

During the interview, all the results of the assessment will be discussed with you. You receive feedback and together with you, the assessor tries to map out exactly where your talents, pitfalls, and challenges lie. To understand this properly, we use the core quadrant. In your preparation, you can already think about your core quadrant. Watch the video for a detailed explanation of the model.

Bridge Ability Suite

This ability test consists of three parts: abstract, numerical and verbal. Each test takes exactly 17 minutes. Your answers and scores will be compared with a norm group. You can already prepare this part by practising comparable tests on, for example, 123test.nl. By the way, practice is mainly useful to get used to the way of thinking. The tests during the actual assessment may look differently than during practice.

Career Values (Drivers) Questionnaire

The Career Values' questionnaire is a personality questionnaire that maps out which factors of work motivate a person. Career values are personal characteristics that make someone experience certain work as motivating. This questionnaire examines four groups of career values: primary, secondary and neutral motivators and potential demotivators.

The questionnaire has no right or wrong answers. It's about your personal preferences.

Quinn Management Roles Questionnaire

The Quinn Management Roles Questionnaire provides insight into the preference for certain management roles. It becomes clear how these roles relate to the management activities in the current position. Quinn's theory assumes eight different and sometimes opposing roles that a manager must fulfil to lead effectively. According to the theory, a manager must master all eight management roles well to be effective. The insights from this questionnaire can serve as a starting point for increasing management effectiveness.

The following also applies here: the questionnaires have no right or wrong answers. It's about your personal preferences.

TMA Talent Questionnaire

The TMA Talent Analysis identifies 22 drives, 44 talents and 53 competencies. The Talent Analysis is positive, non-judgmental and provides insight into drivers, talents, culture, and competencies. Completing the questionnaires takes approximately 60 minutes. It is important to note that it is not about a right or wrong answer. It is about motives and talents. There is no wrong answer possible in that. You get 312 multiple-choice questions online, and the questionnaire does not work in time.

The TMA Capacity Analysis

Capacities Analyses of TMA Method provide a good perspective on the intellectual level of the candidate and, therefore, a predictor of functioning in a job where abstract thinking and faster understanding is a requirement. The norm groups of the TMA Analyses are scientifically compared every two years with standard groups at a middle and higher level.

The Logical Figurative Understanding analysis consists of 15 questions. In this analysis, the candidate gets to see a series of figures or matrix per question containing a certain logic that the candidate has to try to figure out.

The analysis Logical figure insight consists of 26 series of numbers arranged according to a specific pattern. The candidate must understand that the systematic change in numbers can occur by addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Sometimes two or more of these co-occur in a sequence. The sequence always continues with 1 number.

The Logical Language Understanding analysis consists of 20 questions. In this analysis, the candidate is shown a combination of two words per question that relate to each other in a certain logic. Also shown is a word that must relate to another word with the same logic as the first pair of words. These are language analogies.
