How To Pass Progressive Pre Employment Assessment

So, You Wanna Work for Progressive? Buckle Up!

Alright, let's talk about those pre-employment assessments. You know, the ones that feel like they were designed by robots who've never had a real conversation?

Specifically, the Progressive ones. Don't worry, we've all been there.

The "Perfect Employee" Myth

Here's my hot take: these tests aren't about finding the *best* person. They are about finding the *most predictable* person. Think about it.

They want someone who consistently chooses the "safe" option. Someone who will never rock the boat. I know, I know. Unpopular opinion alert!

So, how do you become that person, at least for the duration of the test?

Thinking Like a Robot (For a Little While)

First, embrace the power of "strongly agree." Seriously. If a statement suggests teamwork or customer service, hammer that "strongly agree" button.

Unless, of course, it's something wildly unethical. Then, maybe dial it back to "agree." Just a thought.

Remember, consistency is key. Don't suddenly become a lone wolf after praising teamwork for the first ten questions.

Spotting the Obvious Traps

They love throwing in trick questions. "I sometimes feel frustrated at work." Think before you answer.

Even if you're about to throw your stapler out the window, resist the urge to answer honestly. Politely disagree.

Instead think "I embrace the challenges and see every obstacle as an opportunity for growth!". Wink. Wink.

The Art of Being Bland (But Employable)

Honesty is great, but remember your goal. It's not a therapy session; it's a job application.

Try to be the most agreeable, team-oriented, customer-focused person you can imagine.

Then, after you get the job, you can slowly reveal your true, slightly more quirky self. Small steps, my friend. Small steps.

Gaming the System (Slightly)

I'm not saying you should lie. I'm just saying... understand what they're *really* asking.

They're not trying to find out if you're human. They're trying to see if you fit their pre-determined mold. You can totally play along.

Use common sense and think like the ideal employee. You got this.

Don't Overthink It (Too Much)

It's easy to get bogged down in the details. Just breathe.

Trust your gut (mostly). If something feels off, it probably is. And remember the magic words: "strongly agree".

Good luck! May the odds be ever in your favor. And may Progressive see the amazing, slightly robotic, but ultimately employable person you are!

A Final Word of "Wisdom"

Ultimately, the best way to "pass" is to genuinely try to be a good employee. But hey, a little strategic thinking never hurt anyone.

Now go forth and conquer that assessment. I believe in you!

Just remember,

the world isn't always fair, and sometimes you gotta play the game to get where you wanna be.
