What to expect from a situational judgement test at the Goldman Sachs Group

What we know about the tests, which format this one can take and how to practise for it.

Does the Goldman Sachs Group use situational judgement tests?

We do not have a list of the tests the Goldman Sachs Group sets. Employers use situational judgement tests most for graduate schemes and for jobs with a lot of contact with customers or colleagues.

What the Goldman Sachs Group hiring process does have is a stage of online tests: it is stage 2 of 5. The email that invites you to it names each test, so read it before you choose what to practise. All five stages are on our page about the Goldman Sachs Group.

For illustration only. We are not affiliated with the Goldman Sachs Group, and our practice tests are not its own.

Which situational judgement test format will the Goldman Sachs Group use?

Situational judgement tests are written for one employer at a time, around the behaviours it wants in the role. So we cannot list a standard format for the Goldman Sachs Group. What differs from one test to the next is how you answer, and the list shows the four ways.

Ours are written out as text, with no video. The first two formats in the list come up most, and a few scenarios ask you to rate or rank every response.

Best response
Choose one
You pick the single most effective response out of four or five.
Best and worst
Choose two
You mark the most effective response and the least effective one.
Ranking
Order them all
You put every response in order. Cappfinity's Situational Strengths Test has you rank them from most to least likely.
Rating
Judge each one
You rate every response on its own. The Civil Service Judgement Test uses four steps, from counterproductive to effective.

Every employer's test is its own, so the number of scenarios and the time allowed are in your invitation. Cappfinity and the Civil Service are not connected with this site.

How do you practise for a situational judgement test at the Goldman Sachs Group?

Read the job description and any values the Goldman Sachs Group publishes before you practise. A test like this is written around the behaviours the employer wants, so they tell you what a good response looks like.

Start with Situational Judgement Test 1: it is free and needs no account. Then take the four tests in the package. Most real tests of this kind have no time limit, so you can switch the timer off. After each one, read the explanation of every scenario, the ones you got right included.

    GS

    Goldman Sachs process is mostly interviews now but the numerical kept me sharp for the case questions. Good quality. Four stars because the tests are good, just be aware GS do not test everyone the same way.

    Good prep!

    I took the GS pracitce tests and was impressed by the platform. The tests were challenging but doable, and the solutions were great. I'd definitely recommend this package to anyone looking to improve their test scores.

    Thank you!

    I recently purchased the Goldman Sachs package and was blown away by the quality. The realistic test scenarios were perfect for preparing for the real assessment. The solutions and explanations were clear and the test report and percentile estimation were incredibly helpful. Highly recommend.
