This preview and the full book cover the critical thinking concepts behind the Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal — a test used by employers worldwide, most heavily in law, finance, consulting, and government recruitment. Wherever the test is used, it measures the same five skills — inference, recognition of assumptions, deduction, interpretation, and evaluation of arguments — and the book prepares you for all of them.
United Kingdom — The Watson-Glaser is the standard critical thinking test in UK legal recruitment. It is used by Magic Circle and Silver Circle firms — including Clifford Chance, Linklaters, Freshfields, and Hogan Lovells — and by many other firms to screen candidates for training contracts and vacation schemes. It is also used across the UK Civil Service, including the Fast Stream, the Government Legal Department, the Bank of England, and the Financial Conduct Authority.
United States — Used by law firms (including the US offices of international firms), consulting firms, and corporations for graduate, professional, and managerial hiring, and for leadership development.
India — Used by multinational law firms, global consulting and IT-services firms, and corporate graduate programmes as part of campus and lateral recruitment.
Australia, Canada, and elsewhere — Used by law firms, professional-services firms, banks, and public-sector employers for graduate and professional selection.
The Watson-Glaser is published by Pearson TalentLens. This book is an independent preparation resource and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pearson.
