Cappfinity assessment: every task explained
Strengths-based situational questions plus numerical and verbal items.
Tasks
Numerical Reasoning
Measures: Numerical reasoning. Length: 12 rounds (reported by candidates).
Read the table or chart and pick the right answer from five. A calculator is allowed, as in the real tests.
Format: data questions, sometimes with typed answers rather than options; difficulty adapts to you. Timing: often no countdown, but your time per item is recorded and counts; your instructions say which applies. Tactics: work steadily rather than fast, since a quick wrong answer costs more than ten extra seconds. Check units and the base year before each calculation, and type answers in the format asked.
Verbal Reasoning
Measures: Verbal reasoning. Length: 12 rounds (reported by candidates).
Read the passage, then say whether the statement is True, False or Cannot say from the passage alone.
Format: passages with statements to judge, plus newer item types such as spotting errors or ranking. Timing: usually time-recorded rather than counted down. Tactics: judge strictly from the passage; a statement that goes one step further than the text is cannot say. Keep a steady pace: Capp reports how long you take as well as whether you are right.
Critical Reasoning
Measures: Critical reasoning. Length: 12 rounds (reported by candidates).
Inferences, assumptions, deductions, interpretations and arguments: judge each claim strictly from the passage.
Format: arguments, assumptions and conclusions to evaluate, close to the five classic critical-thinking item types. Timing: time-recorded. Tactics: separate what the text states from what it assumes; a conclusion follows only if it must be true given the text. For argument items, strong means both important and directly about the question.
Situational Judgement
Measures: Judgement and strengths. Length: 10 rounds (reported by candidates).
Rate how effective each response is, from 1 (counterproductive) to 4 (highly effective).
Format: workplace scenarios where you rate or rank each response; Capp tests are strengths-based, looking for what you would naturally do well. Timing: time-recorded. Tactics: the best response usually owns the problem, involves the right person early and keeps the client or team informed. Avoid both extremes: escalating everything, and acting alone without telling anyone.
