SITUATIONAL JUDGEMENT TEST
This test measures the ability to make sound judgements and apply effective decision-making in
workplace relevant settings.
You will be presented with an overall scenario, and several potential actions based on that scenario.
For each action, you will need to rate the effectiveness of that action in addressing that scenario. For
each action, you must select one of the following ratings:
1) Very Ineffective : An action that is likely to make the situation worse.

2) Ineffective : An action that will not help the situation.
3) Fairly Ineffective : An action that is somewhat unlikely to improve the situation.
4) Fairly Effective : An action that somewhat likely to improve the situation.
5) Effective : An action that will help the situation.
6) Very Effective : An action that will significantly improve the situation.
Scenario 1:
Your organisation has recently dismissed several staff members due to poor performance. Most of
these staff members were recommended by a specific recruitment agency that the organisation works
with. Your organisation has worked with this agency for many years, and until now they have been
providing high quality candidates. However, now it seems that the quality of their work has dropped
and it is negatively impacting your organisation. Vetting a new consultancy would be a lengthy and
expensive process, as strict official procedures must be followed.
1. Arrange a meeting with the recruitment agency, express your concerns and work together to
find a solution.
a) Very Ineffective b) Ineffective c)Fairly Ineffective
d) Fairly Effective e) Effective f)Very Effective
2. Immediately discontinue working with the recruitment consultancy and demand a refund for
their fees.
3. Inform the recruitment agency of the recent drop in candidate quality, stating that you will
search for a new agency should the trend continue.
4. Ignore the reduction in candidate quality, continue working with the agency and do not raise
your concerns with them.
5. Make early preparations for vetting new agencies, move forward with choosing a new agency
if the issue continues.
6. Discontinue working with recruitment agencies in general, avoiding the need to find and vet a
new agency.
Scenario 2:
You are due to give annual performance appraisals to the staff you manage and one member of staff,
Julie, is receiving a promotion. Although Julie is a high performing member of the team, Carol is the
teams highest performer and has worked at the company longer than Julie. Senior management
decided that Julie should receive the promotion, as they feel the organisation needs Carol in her
existing role. Both Carol and the team are aware that Carol is the teams highest performer, and Carol
suspects that she will be awarded the promotion after her appraisal.
1. Recommend that Carol protest the decision and complain to the senior management team.
2. Avoid the subject of promotion during the review and praise Carol on her high performance.
3. Explain to Carol why she was not offered the promotion and that you will be recommending
her for promotion at the earliest opportunity.
4. Give Carol a bad performance review, ensuring that she does not feel surprised about missing
the promotion
5. Apologise to Carol about the promotion and discuss ways to appropriately reward her high
performance.
