Four situations, and what you actually did in them.
Each one drops you into a real workplace moment and records every action. The score is mostly a set of facts you could check yourself — what you sent, what you committed to, what you never confirmed — not an opinion about your personality.
Before You Hit Send
A quote goes out today. Your manager drafted it with the assistant, checked it, and told you to send. One figure does not match the document it came from.
The Vague Brief
One sentence, then she leaves for three days. The announcement is on screen. What it cannot tell you lives in her head, and you have three questions.
Prioritise Under Pressure
Eight things arrive at once and there is not enough time. What goes first, what waits, what goes back.
Hold the Line
The buyer asks for four things. You can only approve one, and everything you say out loud your company has to deliver.
The Handover
Three things are mid-flight and you leave tomorrow. The score is whether the next person can carry on without calling you.
More situations
New exercises are being written now. Tell us the moment that actually decides hiring in your job and it may become one of them.
How the scoring works
60 points are facts. They come from comparing what you did against the documents in the scenario — the price sheet, the announcement, the authority you were given. Delete our answer key and these points do not move.
40 points are how you went about it. Whether you read before acting, whether you confirmed a figure with a person or let an assistant fill it in, and one short piece of writing judged on content rather than on how nicely it reads.
Every exercise ends by showing its sources and the reasoning behind each point it gave or withheld. If you disagree with a judgement, that disagreement is the most useful thing you can send us.
