What to expect from a mechanical reasoning test at Volvo
What we know about the tests, which format this one can take and how to practise for it.
Does Volvo use mechanical reasoning tests?
We do not have a list of the tests Volvo sets. A mechanical test goes with technical work. Employers set it for apprentices, technicians and engineers, so expect one only if the role is of that kind.
What the Volvo 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 Volvo.
For illustration only. We are not affiliated with Volvo, and our practice tests are not its own.
Which mechanical test format will Volvo use?
We do not know which mechanical test Volvo sets. The list has five that employers use, and what separates them is length: from 15 questions to 60.
Ours are short sets of picture questions, each with three answers to choose from.

How do you practise for a mechanical test at Volvo?
Most pictures come in pairs that differ in one thing: a longer lever, a larger gear, one more bulb. Spot what differs before you read the answers. When you get one wrong, work out which principle it was about, because there are only a handful.
Start with Mechanical Reasoning Test 1: it is free and needs no account. Then take the mechanical tests in the package with the timer on. Aim to answer a simple picture in a few seconds, so there is time left for the ones with several parts.

Questions about Volvo mechanical tests
Short answers to what candidates ask most.
The full FAQ covers payments and your account. For anything else, write to support@aptitude-tests.co.uk.
Yes. Publishers use three words for one kind of test: comprehension (Bennett, SHL), aptitude (Ramsay, Wiesen) and reasoning. Whatever the name, the questions are pictures of gears, levers and circuits.
We do not know the test Volvo sets. The five in the list above allow between 27 and 40 seconds a question, so there is no time to work anything out on paper.
No. We are not connected with Volvo. The questions an employer uses are kept secret, and no practice site has them. Ours are the same kind of question, built on the same principles, with pictures of our own.
Yes. Mechanical Reasoning Test 1 is free: 4 questions in 8 minutes, with the answers explained and a report at the end. It opens without an account.
£9.99 for the mechanical package: six tests, with 3 months unlimited access and no auto-renew. The All-in-One has every package, 59 tests, for £29.99. Every paid plan comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
Yes. Every paid plan has a 14-day money-back guarantee. If something is wrong with the platform or the tests, email us within 14 days of buying. If you have started no more than three tests in a package, or four on the All-in-One, we refund what you paid. Other conditions apply.
