About the test

The Attention to Detail test assesses the ability to achieve thoroughness and accuracy in detail-oriented work through a series of multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions.

The assessment includes work-sample tasks such as:

  • Examining a table of data to check for accuracies and inconsistencies.
  • Comparing two versions of a report to identify mistakes. 
  • Carefully and completely applying standards and policies to complex series of tasks.

A good candidate for detail-oriented work will be able to demonstrate their level of attention to detail in real-world scenarios required for a variety of office-based roles.

Verifying Data

While training to be a workplace investigator, you are taught to read mirrored writing so you can read a suspect's monitor that is facing away from you when there is a window or mirror behind it. To test your skill, you are asked to compare a list of passwords to a list of mirrored images.

(Open full-size image in a new tab.)

Identifying Mistakes

To improve communications, your company's CEO gives you a list of meetings she wants you to schedule between all possible combinations of herself, the CFO, the COO, and the CCO. You come up with your own list to compare with hers.

Lists of meetings with mistakes in the CEO's list.

Based on your list, which meetings are missing, mistaken, or misspelled on the CEO's list?

Working with Time

As a customer success specialist, you can only approve in-app purchase refund requests that are made within time limits determined by whether the customer is an adult or a child and whether the request came through the app store or by email.

  Adult Time Limit for Approval Child Time Limit for Approval
App Store Refund Request 4 hours after purchase 8 hours after purchase
Email Refund Request 8 hours after purchase 16 hours after purchase

NOTE: US customers use the date format MONTH/DAY/YEAR while Europeans use DAY/MONTH/YEAR. According to your company, a child is anyone born after 1/2/2010 for US customers and after the same date of 2/1/2010 for Europeans.

The table below gives the details you need to decide which customers' refund requests to approve.

Decorative quote

Simple, straight-forward technical testing

TestDome is simple, provides a reasonable (though not extensive) battery of tests to choose from, and doesn't take the candidate an inordinate amount of time. It also simulates working pressure with the time limits.
