A PRACTICAL GUIDE

Using the Carpenter assessment.

What does the full assessment tell you?

This template combines multiple-choice questions in Spatial Reasoning, Mechanical Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Error Checking. It brings together evidence about technical reasoning, accuracy and practical judgement, giving you areas to explore when checking a production handover against the work specification.

How can you use the results?

Review each result against your vacancy’s responsibilities. Use a short task based on checking a production handover against the work specification to explore practical application. Ask how they would check the specification, investigate a discrepancy and document the handover.

Which results matter for your vacancy?

  • Spatial ReasoningExplore how they interpret shapes, positions and orientation.
  • Mechanical ReasoningFollow up on how they explain forces, movement and mechanical relationships.
  • Numerical ReasoningAsk them to interpret a table, calculate a rate and explain what the figures imply.
  • Error CheckingCheck matching identifiers, amounts and dates before records are shared.

BEFORE YOU START

Your questions, answered.

Can I tailor this assessment to my Carpenter vacancy?

Yes. Start with Spatial Reasoning, Mechanical Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Error Checking, then keep the tests that match your responsibilities. For example, use Spatial Reasoning to explore shapes & objects. You can add or remove tests before inviting candidates.

Does this assess practical Carpenter work?

Candidates answer multiple-choice questions in Spatial Reasoning, Mechanical Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Error Checking online. They do not complete your day-to-day work inside your own systems. Add a short work sample based on checking a production handover against the work specification to explore application alongside the test results.

Why is Spatial Reasoning included?

Shows how well candidates picture and manipulate shapes and layouts in their head. Explore how they interpret shapes, positions and orientation. Review whether this area reflects the responsibilities of your vacancy before retaining it.

How long does this Carpenter assessment take?

The recommended selection contains 4 tests and allows 40 minutes across its timed tests. Adding or removing tests, or adjusting time allowances, can change the total.

Will I see a separate result for each test?

Yes. Review Spatial Reasoning, Mechanical Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Error Checking separately so a strength in one area does not hide a gap in another. Use the detail to focus interviews and relevant work samples. View the sample report.

Can I try this assessment with real candidates for free?

After signup, your Carpenter selection is prepared for review. Adjust it, invite candidates and see your first 5 candidate results free. No credit card is required. See pricing for further results.
