The black box
Never be filtered by a black box again.
Online assessments decide who gets seen, often before anyone reads your CV. Capable people get cut for reasons nobody explains. The only fair counter is knowing the format cold before test day.
Many applicants are screened out before a person reads their CV. Even the odds.
Every test. One platform.
Practise the format you’ll actually sit.
Real, representative questions in the provider’s own style, with worked explanations after every answer.

Built by people who sat them
“We were the target users. So we built the prep we couldn’t find.”
forge started with final-year students who sat SHL, AON and HireVue for real graduate applications and found prep that was either good or affordable, never both. We’re a community first. The platform is what we built so that community has something to practise on.
Questions
Before you enter.
Which test will I actually get?
Your invitation usually names the provider, or the link gives it away (shl.com, aon, cappfinity, hirevue). Check the format and time limit there, then practise the matching one. Our guides walk through how to tell them apart.
Is forge affiliated with SHL, AON or HireVue?
No. forge is independent. Our questions are representative of each provider’s format, written so you meet the real structure, timing and traps before test day.
What’s free, and what costs credits?
Drills, the diagnostic and games are free. Premium provider-style simulations and HireVue practice use credits, with score reports included.
Do credits expire?
Never. Buy what you need when the invite lands and keep the rest for the next application.
Can personality and game-based tests be practised?
Partly. You can learn the format and remove the surprise, but there is no “right” personality to cram. We say so up front rather than sell you a cheat sheet.
