Reliability and Commitment to the Team
Evaluates your ability to keep commitments, be someone the team can count on, and maintain a consistent level of reliability even under pressure.
A workplace reliability test assesses how consistently a person delivers on what they have announced: a deadline, an attendance, a handover, a level of quality. In a team, every missed commitment spills over onto other people's work, forcing them to replan, compensate or chase. Reliability is therefore not just punctuality: it also depends on how you take on a task, how you deal with the unexpected and how you stay credible when the workload grows.
The test confronts candidates with threatened deadlines, dependencies between colleagues, critical feedback and periods of overload. It sheds light on how they commit and how they respond when a promise starts to slip. Candidates get a mirror of their habits, and recruiters gain useful insight for roles that call for a high degree of autonomy.
What this test measures
- How you commit to a deadline or task at the moment it is offered.
- What you do when a promised deadline becomes hard to meet.
- How you manage dependencies when your own work relies on a colleague's delivery.
- How you respond to feedback pointing out errors or a perceived lack of reliability.
- How you keep a file moving during an absence, whether yours or someone else's.
Examples of situations in the test
- 1At an accounting firm, a report due at the end of the week falls behind the day before the deadline.
- 2At a software publisher, a key client asks for work in one day that you would normally estimate at several days.
- 3At a mutual insurance company, a colleague leaves for three weeks and hands you a file still in progress.
- 4At an events agency, you spot an error in a deliverable already handed over that nobody has noticed.
About this test
This test uses situational judgement tests (SJT), true/false questions and prioritisation exercises to assess your real behaviours. Each answer is weighted: there is no obvious "wrong" answer.
How to read your result
High result
A high score describes someone whose commitments are realistic and easy to read, and who keeps the team's trust even when setbacks pile up.
Result to develop
A score to develop often points to a gap between what is promised and what can be delivered. The report helps identify when that gap appears and suggests habits to narrow it.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly does the reliability test measure?
It looks at how you make a commitment, how you react when it is under threat, how you work with colleagues who are waiting on your output and how you hold up over time, especially during busy periods. The final report breaks these facets down one by one rather than giving a single verdict on how dependable you are.
Can I score well by giving the answers that seem expected?
That is hard to do, because answers are weighted: several options look sensible and earn different points. The 20 questions are drawn at random from a larger bank and mix scenarios, true/false statements and prioritisation, which limits the effect of any strategy. Answering according to your real reflexes gives you a far more useful report.
Which hiring needs is this test relevant for?
It is useful whenever a role involves shared deadlines or people who need your work to move forward: project management, support functions, client relations, operations, finance. A company can add it to a recruitment campaign and compare candidates' reports before interviews, so that questions focus on real past situations.
How should I use the report if my score is average?
The AI-generated behavioural report sets out your strengths, areas for growth and concrete recommendations. An average score is not a final judgement: it highlights the situations in which your commitments are most fragile. You can use it to pick one or two habits to work on first.
