IQ & Psychometric Job Aptitude Tests
The job aptitude test is also known as the psychometric test, career aptitude test, career test, recruitment test or simply job test. As much as 70% of companies use IQ-based selection tests in their recruitment process. Almost all of these aptitude tests are straight IQ tests, such as the Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices test.

IQ & Job Performance
Your IQ level is the single most powerful predictor of work performance -not amount of experience, but IQ. Higher IQs have more high performance work practices. The more complex the job, the more the benefits of a high IQ are felt. There is a correlation of .80 (a measure of the strength of a link, ranging from 0 to 1) between IQ and job performance for more complex jobs. This is a very strong link. The better your work performance, the quicker you progress your career. This explains the positive link between IQ level and career status and income.
IQ & Trainability
There’s one very good reason besides work performance why employers use IQ tests in recruitment. Higher IQs are fast learners. Research has shown that employees with an average IQ may need 2-5 times more training time than high IQ employees. And super high IQs go exponential with their learning speed. In one study it took people in the 110 to 130 IQ range about 1 to 2 years to catch up with the super-charged performance of those with IQs of 130+ who had only 3 months’ experience on the job.
