Master the Chevron Assessment Test: Free Practice and Guide 2024
Looking to prepare for the Chevron Assessment test? The Chevron online assessment is a unique test that combines Mechanical knowledge questions with a SHL Personality OPQ test.
This assessment described on this page is built for Maintenance and Operation positions and evaluates your Mechanical Comprehension and Personality traits.
The Chevron Assessment Practice Pack includes the following:
Note: The Chevron Operation assessment test has a 12-minute gamified process monitoring section, which is not currently covered in the JobTestPrep preparation.
Here you will find free Chevron Chevron assessment test questions along with information about the format of the exam. Let’s get started.

The Basic Chevron assessment test is a two-part test that includes the SHL Mechanical Comprehension test which examines your ability to comprehend mechanical concepts and the SHL OPQ Personality test which evaluates your personality traits, thinking style, skills, workplace behavior, and preferences.
The assessment time is 15 minutes and the total expected time of 41 minutes is based on the time required for instructions, practice exercises, and completion of the assessment for both operation and maintenance positions.
The Chevron Operation assessment test also includes a 12-minute gamified process monitoring section that currently is not included in the JobTestPrep preparation.
Let’s try to solve some free maintenance and chevron operator assessment test questions.
The questions below are samples taken from the JobTestPrep PrePack and are very similar to what you’ll find in the real exam.
In this section, you will employ your aptitude for comprehending mechanical principles. You'll encounter visuals depicting straightforward machinery, tools, or common items, and your task will involve making predictions about their outcomes and how the displayed objects would interact.
How will each of the horses behave when pushed forward?
While the four large wheels on the base will move both horses forward, Horse B will also move up and down.
The front axis of horse B is not straight (as opposed to horse A) and has an arm in the perpendicular direction. Therefore, it will convert some of the wheel rotation to an up-and-down movement, as depicted in the following diagram (side view):
The arm rotates "inwards," pushing the horse leg up as it goes up (black) and down as it goes down (dashed grey).
Which shelf is less likely to bend?
The bending of the shelf is influenced by the load and the distance to the fixed points. That is due to the law of the lever, which states that the longer the arm the load is applied on, the greater force it exerts.
If the load on the shelf is farther from the fixed points, it will exert a large load on the shelf, causing it to bend more.
In that case, although shelf B is longer, the distance between the load and shelf A's fixed points is larger, and therefore it will bend more.
Answer D is incorrect. While the extent to which the shelves will bend does depend on the material they are made of, shelf A will still bend less than shelf B.
The correct answer is A
In which direction will the light grey wheel rotate?
An intuitive look at the problem can also help see that two rotations are applied on the light cogwheel (marked red) – clockwise from the left and counterclockwise from the right. The light cogwheel is mashed between the two, unable to move (and so is the entire system).
However, this question can also be solved in the traditional way of "counting gears":
Count the gears from the origin to the target (excluding origin):
In that case, we can count one gear (the target gear meshes against the origin gear) or two gears, as shown below (red means counterclockwise, blue means clockwise):
The OPQ32 is an online occupational personality questionnaire developed by SHL. It assesses personality traits, thinking styles, skills, and workplace behaviors and preferences to forecast job performance.
The OPQ32 uses an interactive format. For instance, you'll be asked to select the statement that best describes you, labeled as 'most'.

After you select a statement (highlighted in bold) that best describes you, it vanishes from the screen. You then continue by choosing from the remaining statements to determine the next one that fits you best.

How Should You Respond to This OPQ Question?
Every job demands specific traits. It's crucial to recognize the essential qualities of your role in order to select the most suitable answers.
In our comprehensive preparation course, we guide you in identifying these key qualities and teach you how to tailor your responses effectively.
This test will ask you to engage in and operate a computer-based simulation. The goal is to test your ability to keep an eye on safety, work towards production goals, monitor product quality, be mindful of environmental impact and maintain efficiency.
The process involves two steps: a training and an assessment.
During the training, you’ll be given a brief 5-8 minute run-down. You'll learn is how to manage the control panel which is divided into 5 zones:
Make sure you understand the instructions and can respond appropriately when things get a bit off course!
Following the training, you’ll take a 12-minutes test where you’ll need to delicately balance all 5 zones at once.
This test requires good multitasking skills, attention to detail, working memory, and quick decision-making skills.
The COBRA test (Console Operator Basic Requirements Assessment) is a much more complex computer-based simulation test that is mainly used in the oil and gas industry to assess the candidate's ability to handle complex and high-stress situations.
In this test, the candidate will have to monitor and control the processes of a simulated pipeline system or petrochemical plant in real-time.
The COBRA test evaluates a candidate's control operation skills including decision-making, problem-solving, and situational awareness. The candidate is expected to react to various mechanical failures or changes in the operation conditions, striving to meet the productivity goals while minimizing risks like potential spills or flares.
