For Job Sim Q1. Test question: What's the weather like where you currently are? (This is a pilot question to test audio and video) Q2 How would you use this research opportunity for your best? (At this stage you will be given a specific scenario, like "There is a new market trend for sustainable energy and you need to find out more about that field and research potential companies for investment" Q3 How will you collect your data, which approach would you use? Again, you are given more context through the text, and from that you have to adjust your answers to fit the situation best (I'd say emphasiSe that you would use multiple reliable sources, and seek guidance from colleagues or more experienced individuals) Q4 How would you use this opportunity to build a strong relationship with Taina, what questions would you ask? Here you are told you are working with an experienced colleague(Taina), and she has a lot of knowledge on this matter. Q5 How would you approach this situation and how would you collect your data? Another scenario is where your investor/client wants to invest in some similar "sustainable" companies and asks you to research similar companies on the market.

Mostly ranking questions where like the following: A colleague makes a mistake in an important report. Please rank the following statements from "I would most likely act like this" to "I would least likely act like this". A. Tell your manager about the mistake and let them take care of your colleague's negligence B. Kindly make your colleague aware of their mistake and ask them to resolve the issue asap. C. Do nothing. D. ... E. ... This should give you a pretty good idea of how the questions look like. I don't belive there is any way to prepare for this type of questions without insider information.
