Graduate Recruitment Test

The Graduate Recruitment Test (otherwise known as the GRT) is an important test that may still be used in various Post Secondary Recruitment job competitions.

Although this test has been removed from the initial stages of the Post Secondary Recruitment Process, any hiring department may request that a candidate writes the test at a later date. The GRT includes many of the types of questions that now make part of the Test Of Reasoning portion of the Public Service Entrance Exam.

It is important to note that obtaining a strong Graduate Recruitment Test score is crucial to continue in a Government of Canada screening process.

The Graduate Recruitment Test has eliminated and will continue to eliminate a good percentage of job applicants due to the following five reasons

1. Poor preparation before writing the test: Yes, there are sample questions online, but they are there to provide you with a very vague basic idea of the styles of questions in the real test. If the GRT was as easy as the questions presented online, every student would pass it with flying colours.
2. Unfamiliarity with various types of questions in the test: When was the last time you’ve taken a math course in university? What about a course that has “reasoning type” questions. Yes, I thought so. Join the group of many students who haven’t taken math classes since high school. Regardless of what your educational background is, you are still responsible for taking and excelling in this test.
3. Studying with irrelevant or poorly structured materials: Many students turn to free standardized test material or depend on online information (from individuals who are your competition) to study for the Graduate Recruitment Test and then wonder why they did not do well.
4. Miscalculating the time given for the test: The test provides 1.64 minutes for each question. This includes reading the question, the answers, and in many cases writing out your thought process on a piece of scrap paper. If you are not familiar with the types of questions on the test you will fail. There is simply no time for second-guessing.
5. Lack of recognition of the test’s importance: The Graduate Recruitment Test score plays a critical role in an applicant’s prospect for a job. If your score is lower than what the department is looking for, you will have to wait for the next job competition.
