Highlights

Pymetrics games are becoming a key part of job applications, helping candidates move to the interview stage.

Pymetrics focuses on assessing soft skills rather than hard skills, which are harder to train but crucial for job success.

Research shows that 89% of failed hires lack essential soft skills, which is why pymetrics focuses on these attributes.

Pymetrics games are scientifically designed to assess traits like altruism, attention, decision-making, and cognitive flexibility.

Soft skills like short-term memory are tested through specific games, as seen in jobs like waiters, where memory is essential.

Different jobs require different soft skills; for instance, a waiter needs good short-term memory, while a systems engineer needs generosity and multitasking abilities.

Your scores from the games will be analyzed against specific skills needed for the job you applied for.

Preparation for pymetrics games includes researching the soft skills relevant to your target role and practicing with brain-training apps.

Games like Elevate, Peak, and Brain Gimmer are recommended for practicing key skills like attention, memory, and cognitive flexibility.

Pymetrics games should be taken when you are mentally prepared, ideally at your 'prime time' of the day.

The environment plays a crucial role in success, and it’s important to declutter your workspace and minimize distractions before taking the test.

Pymetrics games test for nine core soft skills, and at the end, your results are compared to other test-takers to assess fit.

There is no right or wrong answer in pymetrics games, but rather, they assess how well you fit the job’s requirements.

The test results are meant to align your skills with jobs that suit you best, which increases job satisfaction and performance.

If successful, candidates can be invited to the next round, such as video interviews, based on their pymetrics game performance.

Transcripts

what are pymetrics games you may have

heard about them whether it's in a job

posting or maybe you just got an email

from a company you just applied to

inviting you to play their games this is

a necessary step to make it to the

interview stage for more and more

companies the only problem is no one

ever teaches you how to perform well at

them that's why in this video we'll go

over my tested 5 steps to understand

what to prepare for parametric games and

how to practice before taking the real

test let's start

the hiring process is broken 99 of

candidates get rejected while 45

never hear back if that sounds familiar

to you you're in luck because biometrics

wants to change that by leveraging

behavioral science and ai technology to

help companies build diverse teams based

on skills not resumes countless studies

showed that resume content like degrees

and past experiences don't provide

enough proof to indicate a person's

future performance in a job soft skills

on the other hand give a better idea of

understanding the true potential a

candidate has you can train for hard

skills but not soft skills for example

you can teach someone how to code or how

to build a nice presentation but it's

harder to teach them how to be generous

or how to be more emotionally

intelligent and there's data to back

this up according to a 2019 survey of

recruiters by linkedin 89 of failed

hires lacked soft skills researchers

have found that people who are in roles

that align with their personality

preferences and skills are more

satisfied and perform better on the job

this is where pymetrics comes into play

their goal is to match your own soft

skills and personality with the right

job but how do they do that how can they

certainly assess your level of soft

skills and personality their team of

scientists created games to understand

to which extent do you possess relevant

soft skills for specific jobs for

example if you applied to be a waiter

one of the soft skills a restaurant

might want to test you for is short-term

memory since you need to remember many

orders at the same time and clients

names testing short-term memory on a

questionnaire or in a resume is just

impossible that's why palmatrix uses a

games of words or numbers to assess that

specific skill that test would be seeing

numbers on the screen and trying to

recall as many of them as possible i

tried it and it's quite challenging the

question then becomes what skills do you

need to be considered a fit for a job

based on years of research pioneer

tricks understood the main soft skills

they needed to test to forecast a

candidate's performance and those are

altruism attention cognitive flexibility

decision making effort expenditure

emotion focus fairness perceptions

learning and risk aversion your

performance in the games will tell us if

you're closer to scores on the right or

left based on the role you're applying

to however they might look at specific

skills more than others for example

being generous could be a requirement

for healthcare workers but being frugal

might be more appropriate for a

marketing coordinator taking care of a

tight budget here are a couple of

examples for a few jobs for a systems

engineering role it's more relevant to

be generous bias to action multitasking

but for a digital marketing role it's

nearly the opposite you need to be

frugal methodical and inclined to

focusing for other roles like data

science you see that emotion focus is

not even tested because they just judged

that skill didn't forecast candidates

performance you might ask yourself then

what skills will you be tested for for

the job you just applied to

in this step we'll analyze what skills

you need to be considered a fit with

your target role but before let me tell

you you can't learn soft skills in a day

or two however i have seen countless

candidates with relevant soft skills

fail multiple times just because of

stress and external factors this is what

we will try to avoid here this

preparation will help you be yourself

and let your personality and skills

shine for this video i'm going to apply

for an investment banking job the first

step that i would need to perform is go

on google and type name of the role plus

soft skills browse some websites and

make a list in a word document this is

what it looks like for investment

banking number two based on your list

let's go back to the pi metrics soft

skills and try to guess what they would

want us to be for altruism since we work

with money and our goal is to make a ton

of it i guess you need to be frugal for

attention it says here i need to be

dedicated and have critical thinking so

i would guess we would need to be

methodical more than biased to action

for cognitive flexibility i'm pretty

sure you need to be inclined to focusing

more than anything else for decision

making i would say deliberate since you

need to be calm under pressure and again

you need critical thinking you need to

make good decisions based on data not

just instinct you might disagree with

some of my answers i might be wrong on a

couple of ones here however this

exercise isn't done to know exactly how

to answer but to be more cautious about

how we're tested and knowing how to

react to specific scenarios we'll be

encountering in the games my final table

looks like this

now that we know approximately what the

company wants to see let's go ahead and

practice showing off these soft skills

using a couple of apps but before if

you're enjoying the video so far then

hit the like button it would be

awesome

based on the soft skills you found in

the previous step your next goal is to

find brain games to help you test those

what i did was googling specific terms

such as cognitive flexibility brain

games or attention focused brain games

you will probably find hundreds of games

online or in the app store on your phone

but i'll show you three of my favorite

ones some of them are paid if you want

all the features but don't worry they

all give you a seven day trial which is

enough in my opinion to practice play

the pie matrix games and move on with

your life so let's start with the first

one the elevate app as soon as you open

the app they will test you for several

traits like processing reading memory

and math which i enjoyed so that they

give you an appropriate level to start

from now this game doesn't explicitly

tie to the soft skills we listed

previously however i can still see some

games being relevant to us for example

the processing exercise tested my

attention and cognitive flexibility

skills by giving me words super fast and

seeing if i can process them next app is

the peak app right off the bat when you

open the app they ask you what you want

to test and we have nearly everything we

want memory focus attention cognitive

flexibility emotional intelligence and

problem solving then just like elevate

they give us a short quiz to assess our

level and lastly

brain gamer this one is not an app but a

website and i liked it because again it

seems we're tested on relevant soft

skills like memory attention thinking

speed perception and logical reasoning

if you're on a desktop well brain gimmer

could be your preferred option but if

you're on the go i enjoyed peak more

than elevate because it felt more

relevant to pymetrics anyway i would

recommend practicing in a prime time in

a day mine is in the morning because let

me tell you for some of these games your

brain really hurts thinking about the

good answer also make sure you practice

for a day or two before taking the pi

metrics test this will give you more

opportunity to get better and be more

comfortable and again i want to

reiterate if let's say you don't have

good attention skills these few games

won't make you an expert they are made

simply to make you more comfortable and

perform better making your existing

skills shine to increase your abilities

however i would recommend playing these

games on a regular basis but not sure if

everyone would be down for that anyway

once you've got a little practice and

feel confident you'll be almost ready to

start your primatrix games but before

you do that let's set up your

environment for success

you've done your research and you

practiced a couple of brain games

already let's make sure our efforts

won't go to waste and set up our

environment for success because no

matter how much preparation you get if

you're not there mentally on the day it

won't help you at all first i already

told you you should practice the games a

day or two before you intend of taking

the pymatrix games and this is for a big

reason you don't want to play the games

and take on biometrics right after you

want your brain to be fully charged not

half dead that's why i recommend again

taking biometrics in a prime time during

the day mine is first thing in the

morning so i would prepare the day

before clear your agenda for tomorrow

morning make sure you have at least one

hour to play the games so that you take

your time and not rush everything then i

would declutter my desk for mental

clarity set up my computer and even open

the pymetrix website tell your roommates

or family that you're taking a test the

next morning for them to not bother you

go to sleep early and make sure you have

a full night of sleep when you wake up

and clean yourself go take a big glass

of water grab some coffee go outside for

a full minute and breathe then finally

go to your desk don't do anything else

don't check your phone don't look at

your emails go straight to the test to

make sure your brain is on focus mode

take a sip of coffee put your headphones

for extra focus and start

so i played the pioneer tricks games

just for fun and to illustrate some of

my points in the video only just to tell

you both my brain and my eyes were

hurting after the test because of too

much focus that's why you need to take

it in your prime time on a given day as

previously mentioned i was tested in all

nine soft skills at the end of the test

you can see your results compared to

everyone who ever took pymetrics games

which was interesting you can see i'm

above average in focus generosity and

effort again pymetric says there is no

right or wrong answer it's just a

question of fit if the job i'm applying

to requires generous people then i think

i would be a fit but if they required

big risk tolerance then maybe i wouldn't

be a fit if everyone else was above

average anyway it looks like i have made

a great impression with my skills

because even if i just applied like that

and took the test i just got an email

inviting me for the second round of

interviews the video interview if you

get a similar email i have a playlist to

help you prepare for that as well that

you can watch here or i'll also put a

link in the description parmetrix games

were a lot of fun and i truly believe

they have a place in the future of

hiring if these games really can predict

future performance then i think it can

be useful compared to simply reading a

resume i hope you enjoyed this video and

learned how to prepare for this skill

assessment test if you want me to make a

video about any other tests then please

let me know in the comment section below

in the meantime if you didn't watch my

other skill assessment video well you

additional tips to help you nail your
