This guide explains the preparation steps and the process flow so that you can complete the entire evaluation series smoothly and optimally.
A. Preparation Steps
Before the Assessment
Get enough rest the night before the assessment to keep your body and mind fresh.
Make sure your device (laptop/PC/phone) is in good condition and fully charged.
Check your internet connection and use a stable network; avoid switching networks while working on the test.
Choose a quiet place with adequate lighting and free of distractions (no TV, loud music, or people passing by).
Prepare supporting documents if requested (e.g., ID card) and writing tools for notes if needed.
Review the invitation email again to avoid scheduling or link errors.
During the Assessment
Read each instruction carefully before answering.
Manage your time wisely; do not spend too long on one question.
Answer honestly and true to yourself, especially in the personality section.
You may review/change your answers before clicking "Submit Summary"; once submitted, the assessment cannot be accessed again.
If time runs out, the system will automatically submit the last saved answers, so answer gradually rather than at the last minute.
Do not open other tabs/applications or work from two devices simultaneously.
After the Assessment
Make sure you have clicked submit and received confirmation that the assessment was successfully completed.
If you encounter technical issues disrupting the process, immediately report to your recruiter along with screenshots (if any).
B. Process Flow
