Hi, just a few notes of interest. I've taken the BPAD (also posted under career advancement forum) which is the Behavioral Personality Assesment Device.
It's tough to prepare for with no criteria outlined. Your placed alone in front of a TV with an adjacent Video Camera, you are then shown a series of scenarios, you're to believe your entering the scene or you are approached by one of the actors with a question, the video stops, asks you to respond,
you'll have 45 seconds to do so.

I've tried to practice with the idea that your scored is based on how you can move the situation/scenario forward with a positive resolution, and did I respond with the appropriate emotion (empathy) for that particular situation?

I'm sure there's more criteria that needs to be met. I hope this helps somewhat. Good luck, stay safe!

just for an example what was a typical scenario, and an appropriate response.
