A PRACTICAL GUIDE
Using the Quantity Surveyor assessment.
What does the full assessment tell you?
This template combines multiple-choice questions in Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Error Checking, Spatial Reasoning; workplace situations in Negotiation. It brings together evidence about technical reasoning, accuracy and practical judgement, giving you areas to explore when checking measured quantities and rates in a cost estimate.
How can you use the results?
Review each result against your vacancy’s responsibilities. Use a short task based on checking measured quantities and rates in a cost estimate to explore practical application. Ask them to verify quantities, explain rate assumptions and assess the effect of a variation.
Which results matter for your vacancy?
- Numerical ReasoningAsk them to interpret a table, calculate a rate and explain what the figures imply.
- Microsoft ExcelDiscuss formulas, cell references and checks in a small spreadsheet.
- Error CheckingCheck matching identifiers, amounts and dates before records are shared.
- NegotiationExplore how they would clarify priorities and work towards an acceptable agreement.
- Spatial ReasoningExplore how they interpret shapes, positions and orientation.

BEFORE YOU START
Your questions, answered.
Can I tailor this assessment to my Quantity Surveyor vacancy?
Yes. Start with Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Error Checking, Negotiation, Spatial Reasoning, then keep the tests that match your responsibilities. For example, use Numerical Reasoning to explore tables & charts. You can add or remove tests before inviting candidates.
Does this assess practical Quantity Surveyor work?
Candidates answer multiple-choice questions in Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Error Checking, Spatial Reasoning; workplace situations in Negotiation online. They do not complete your day-to-day work inside your own systems. Add a short work sample based on checking measured quantities and rates in a cost estimate to explore application alongside the test results.
Why is Numerical Reasoning included?
Shows how candidates read figures, tables and percentages, and what they conclude from them. Ask them to interpret a table, calculate a rate and explain what the figures imply. Review whether this area reflects the responsibilities of your vacancy before retaining it.
How long does this Quantity Surveyor assessment take?
The recommended selection contains 5 tests and allows 50 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 Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Error Checking, Negotiation, Spatial Reasoning 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?
