The Multicheck aptitude test - known as the Multicheck test for short - has been around since 1996. Almost all large companies now require it when applying for an apprenticeship - because the Multicheck test not only allows important conclusions to be drawn about academic performance, but also records cognitive abilities. Among other things, it is about:

• Logic
• Retention
• Short-term memory
• Ability to concentrate
• Spatial imagination

In addition to the school grades, the results of the Multicheck are therefore very meaningful. The Multicheck test is taken on a computer and lasts between 1.5 and 3.5 hours, depending on the professional field for which the Multicheck test is being taken. In the process, several categories are tested, which in the end provide an insightful analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of an applicant. The better the result, the higher the chances in the application process.

Participation in a Multicheck test is possible all year round. During a clarification period (test period), which begins each May, a maximum of two test attempts are permitted. Apart from that, the Multicheck test can be repeated as often as desired, but only once within a test period.

The Multicheck test, which lasts between 1.5 and 3.5 hours, is conducted in one of over 40 test centers in Switzerland. Our Multicheck preparation takes place in Zurich - at a location that is very easy to reach by public transport or by car.

2. When should the Multicheck preparation take place?

We recommend early Multicheck preparation. It is best to start at least one month before the apprenticeship multicheck takes place.

3. How is the Multicheck evaluated?

In the Multicheck, participants receive a percentile rank at the end. The respective test result is thus obtained by comparing the results of the participants with each other. Example: If 100 people took the exam, and you get a percentile rank of 60, that means 59 participants did worse than you and 40 did better. Most apprenticeship companies require a percentile rank of 60 or higher.

The Multicheck Junior can be required in the following occupational areas: Beauty, Technical, Commercial, Health and Social (basic education), Retail and Service, Commercial.

Companies can use a Multicheck test to compare the performance of applicants. In this way, potentials can be recognized, strengths and weaknesses identified and school grades "verified". The big advantage? In contrast to school grades, which depend on many factors, the Multicheck allows better conclusions to be drawn about the actual qualifications of applicants. Therefore, the Multicheck is an important tool for companies to find the ideal applicants for their apprenticeships.
