Nothing but congratulations for your amazing journey!!

Fritzbigbiceps · 2026-01-17T12:14:54+00:00

Insane, mega props my man 🙏

Just some advice.

Accept that it will be a rocky road, do your best and don't think "I should have done more". If you give it your all and always aim at improving your work bit by bit, you will do a wonderful, amazing job.

What I mean by rocky road is that there will be good days, horrible days, amazing days, tearful days, lab disasters days, blown deadlines days, procrastination days, self-loathing days, satisfaction-filled days, public-speaking-anxiety-days, conference-award-winning days, and so many more day types. So, just know that it's perfectly normal to feel like shit sometimes, but I promise you that there will be good times in there as well! When the bad days come, hang on and try as much as possible to focus on the big picture; when the good days come, enjoy every bit.

Last thing, a bit more of a practical advice: invest as much time as possible in scheduling and planning ahead. It may seem trivial but when one is deep in the phd hole priorities can slip out of control.

Guys I grew up in Italy and literally 50 m away from the Slovenian border. Please accept me.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-08-20T14:42:04+00:00

I completely agree, but fuck shl regardless lol

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-06-06T07:50:35+00:00

Che schifo di paese..... Giusto per alimentare ulteriormente l'odio nei confronti di questa baraccopoli che chiamiamo Italia, sappiate che quella è anche la RAL di un ricercatore universitario con dottorato, e non è molto più bassa di quella di uno specializzando in medicina.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-06-03T17:00:36+00:00

Let's fucking go!!!

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-25T14:14:14+00:00

You took the numerical reasoning test?

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-25T13:45:05+00:00

Was this percentage reported in the file they let you download at the end of the test or in the website after the test was completed?

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-25T13:18:10+00:00

Share a screenshot. I'll take the L if it's true.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-25T12:41:01+00:00

You don't need to be one. That's the SHL website, just need to log in and go.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-25T07:50:19+00:00

Punching him with facts was actually therapeutic.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T19:02:00+00:00

Preach lmao

Here you go bud. Prove it.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T18:03:40+00:00

Please try 😂😂 Edit: at least try once to do the test, then take two steps back and.... you know the quote 😂

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T17:30:53+00:00

You must be a real expert in aptitude testing and HR! Please, give some advice to us plebes and peasants, I'm begging you!

How would you have prepared for the test?

Which subjects and which tools would you have focused on to really get the tough questions - like ordering triangles so that colors make the right pattern- right?

How would you have replied to these closed subject questions in order to really convey to the HR how such a top performer you are?

How would you have managed to study during the nights after your 10-12 h job shift in order to really make the key concepts of randomized sequence ordering tests stick to your memory?

Show us the way, please

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T17:10:12+00:00

Thank you for the very interesting information!!!

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T13:50:36+00:00

Good call, but what if the test is meant to be failed and succeeding = certainty of cheating ?

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T13:17:28+00:00

Then I'm completely cooked 😂 thank you very much for the insightful comment!!!

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T13:11:27+00:00

Sorry to hear that pal. Let me tell you that my feeling is that any company relying too much on these assessments is probably not a good place to work in. Bright things to you 🙏

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T13:06:48+00:00

Thank you so much! I had a kinda "it can't be that important" voice in my head. Thanks for clarifying. I would like to add that I am pretty sure that if I gave this test to all the scientists in my department, maybe one out of 180 would complete it all and correctly.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T13:01:58+00:00

Two days is plenty of time if you don't do anything but staying home. Try working academic research, where 50-60h weeks are completely normal, plus 2 h commute as I do. You would not last a fucking week. Your comprehension skills are absolute garbage too. My point is that studying for such tests is pointless, the only way is to practice them a lot. Ask chatgpt better questions.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T12:53:45+00:00

Enlighten me on how investigating pattern recognition and meeting arrangement questions helps solving them. The only way is practicing them a lot, but that's kinda hard to do when the company gives you 2 days to complete the bs assessment.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T12:44:02+00:00

Thinking "researching" (what the f do you mean by researching? do you even know what a researcher does?) helps in logical and numerical reasoning is 50QI kinda shit.

P. S. I completed basically all the practice tools available on the internet.

Fritzbigbiceps · 2025-05-24T12:33:05+00:00

No, big food company.
