Step 5: We'll give you feedback, post assessment day, whether or not we move forward with your application. 🌟 What to Expect from the Arctic Shores Assessment As part of our selection process, we use an Arctic Shores game-based assessment to help us understand your natural strengths in a fair, engaging way. This isn't a quiz about what you know, it's about showing how you think, behave and solve problems in real time. What it is A series of interactive tasks (games) designed to measure problem-solving, decision-making, adaptability, focus and other work-relevant behaviours. You won't see typical questions, instead, you'll play activities that look and feel like simple games. How it works You'll receive an email with a link and simple instructions. Before the official assessment you can try a practice task so you're confident with the format. The assessment usually has around 7-9 tasks and should take about the same time as a standard online test. Tips to succeed Choose a quiet, distraction-free space with a reliable device. Read the instructions carefully before starting each activity. Be yourself - Arctic Shores is designed to capture how you naturally approach challenges, not what you think is the "right" answer. After you finish Candidates receive a personalised feedback report that explains what your responses suggest about your strengths - valuable insight whether you join us or not. There are no right or wrong answers - your results simply help us understand where you'll thrive. Approach it with confidence and focus on performing consistently throughout each task.
