Mindmill specialise in online psychometric assessment tools that help to define and measure personality preferences, natural aptitudes, abilities and motivational interests. With over 30 years of research, our profiling assessments meet stringent guidelines in achieving technical excellence, leading to high levels of validity. Assessments are scored immediately and automatically by the system, so there is no need for hand-scoring. The system is a cloud based application, which can be accessed anywhere in the world.
Psychometrics are assessments which measure individual differences in many areas including personality, motivation, aptitude and abilities.
Psychometrics are a common part of the selection process and enable organisations to better understand candidates and determine if they have the skills for a job.
For best results, Mindmill recommend the assessments are completed in a test-like environment. Any possible distractions should be turned off, for example mobile phones, TV, music. Concentration is needed throughout the assessments, so if you are completing it at home or work, ensure other people are aware they should not disturb you until you are finished.
Mindmill have a practice booklet on their website here. Candidates can look through the relevant assessments on the practice booklet to familiarise themselves with the type of questions they will be asked on the day of testing. During the actual test, candidates will also be given practice questions before each assessment to ensure they understand the questions before beginning the timed assessment.
No. The Mindmill Cognitive Assessments have been developed by item generation theory which indicates new questions can appear for every test. There are no right or wrong answers in personality questionnaires. Mindmill Personality questionnaire has inbuilt warning mechanisms to determine results which may have been distorted or faked.
If you require any particular adjustments because of a disability, please contact your Mindmill representative to discuss any concerns you may have. Please note that it is essential that special arrangements concerning any matter are made in advance as retrospective arrangements cannot be made after the test has been completed. You will be asked to provide supporting documentation later in the selection process.

The system is designed to generate all assessment questions at the beginning of each assessment. If your internet connection drops you can continue with the assessment provided the connection is restored before the end of the assessment. If the connection is not restored, a candidate can log back into the system at a time when there is an active connection and will have an opportunity to begin the assessments from the last fully completed assessment.

For optimum performance it is advised that all assessments should be completed in one session. This should be carried out under test conditions; a quiet environment with no interruptions. However, if a situation arises where the assessments cannot be fully completed by a candidate, they can log back into the system at another time and continue from the last fully completed assessment.
To complete the assessments, candidates require a computer which has an internet connection and a modern web browser installed (Internet Explorer 8 or higher, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari or equivalent browsers).
