"content": "<p>Ability tests are standardised methods of assessing an individual’s performance in different work-related tasks or situations. They measure potential rather than just academic performance and are frequently used by employers as indicators of how people will perform in a work setting.</p><p>Ability tests provide valuable insight in to a candidate’s ability to process information whilst working within a time limit. They are a good predictor of job performance and when used alongside other psychometrics, such as personality questionnaires, provide a well-rounded picture of an individual in the workplace.</p>"
