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 youknow,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 youthinkis 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.
