Systems Programming Aptitude Test
Name of Candidate: John Smith
Company: ABC Systems Inc.
CANDIDATE SCORE: 83%
PERCENTILE: 50th
EVALUATION: Average
This person's performance on this test shows capability for work in systems programming. He shows high accuracy in his execution of straightforward jobs.
He completed the first three problems of the test correctly. In the two most intricate problems he was not sufficiently precise in his interpretation of the specification and in his logical analysis.
He shows high capability of generalizing from specific cases. He also shows good ability in reasoning with symbols.
His work is done in a well-organized and well-annotated manner. His programs and documentation are likely to be written in a way that will enable another programmer to follow his logic.
If this person can get help from his supervisor in jobs in which he is aware that he does not understand the specifications clearly or in which he is not sure of his logical analysis, he may well prove to be a good systems programmer.
From his performance on this test, we believe that this person will prove to be a better than average worker in systems programming if he is given jobs of familiar types in which he has received training. For jobs of intricate specifications and requiring more sophisticated logic, he may be able to complete the job after several testing and debugging attempts.
Recommendation
We recommend him for employment in systems programming.
