Product Knowledge ApplicationEvery scenario hands you the fictional product's spec sheet. All that is left to test is what you do with it.
Eighteen situational-judgement scenarios built around one fictional product whose specifications are restated in each item, so no industry knowledge is needed. Measures matching capability to need, honesty about limits and plain explanation. Partial credit, three competencies, banded report.
Recall is removed so that application is all that remains
The product is Vantor One, and it does not exist. Its standard plan supports 40 concurrent users and its extended plan 200; its reports refresh hourly; its interface is in three languages. Each scenario restates the relevant fact and then presents a buyer: 62 supervisors who need to sign in at shift handover on a budget that covers the standard plan, a buyer who says real-time and later describes a 7.30am review of yesterday, a third of a warehouse that reads German, a buyer with 30 staff asking what the extended plan adds. Eighteen times you decide what to recommend, what to admit, and how to say it.
Because every specification is given in the item, the bank is fair to candidates from any industry; the only thing that makes the keyed option best is reasoning from a stated capability to a stated need. Options are scored on a 0–3 gradient with a rationale for each, so recommending the extended plan while offering to check whether all 62 truly need concurrent access earns full credit, and 'standard now, upgrade later' earns something. Any option that overstates a capability, hides a limitation or invents a roadmap commitment scores zero regardless of deal effect. The bank is original; no branded sales method is used.
Three competencies are banded separately — Matching Capability to Need, Honesty About Limits and Explaining Capability Plainly — because a seller can match precisely and still bury the limitation, or disclose everything in language a buyer cannot follow. The AI-personalised narrative names the pattern in your 18 answers, the growth plan starts from the weakest competency, and the scenario review shows why 'close enough' at 62 users on a 40-user plan scored zero.
What you walk away with
Because the product is fictional and every fact is supplied, the overall score and band measure application alone. A candidate from pharmaceuticals and one from software face identical items, so hiring managers can compare them on judgement rather than on prior exposure.
Matching Capability to Need, Honesty About Limits and Explaining Capability Plainly each return a band with a coaching note — what a Developing band on limits looks like in a live demonstration and the one habit most likely to fix it.
An AI-personalised narrative built from your own answer pattern names the tendency — the near-fit that is sold as a fit, the specification quoted instead of explained — so a manager coaches the behaviour and not the score.
Practical steps from your weakest competency, then all 18 scenarios explained option by option, including why the roadmap promise scored zero and why the plainest explanation beat the most complete one.
The report, in three panels
Illustrative sample — your report is generated from your own responses.
One number, one band, and a two-sentence summary of what the band means for you — then the breakdown that explains it.
Every competency this test declares, scored from the items tagged to it — so the shape is yours, not a template.
Assembled from your lowest competencies, in order — not a generic checklist.
Built for
- Candidates for sales roles in an industry they have not sold into before
- New hires in onboarding, before they have learned the real product
- Sales and presales staff who will explain technical capability to non-technical buyers
- Hiring managers who want to compare candidates from different sectors on equal terms
Knowing the product is easy. Applying it honestly to the buyer in front of you is the job.
Eighteen scenarios in 30 minutes, no industry knowledge required, three competencies banded with a growth plan on completion.

Frequently asked questions
Whether a salesperson can take a stated capability and apply it correctly, honestly and clearly to a stated customer need. Every scenario concerns Vantor One, a fictional product whose relevant specifications are given inside the item, so recall is removed and only application is tested. Three competencies across 18 scenarios: Matching Capability to Need, Honesty About Limits and Explaining Capability Plainly. It suits candidates changing industry, new hires in onboarding, and anyone who explains capability to buyers.
No. Several scenarios reward recommending the smaller plan because the buyer's stated need fits it, and recommending the larger one there scores below. Each option is scored on a 0–3 gradient with a written reason, options are length-matched and the best answer moves position. Any option that overstates a capability, hides a limitation or invents a roadmap commitment scores zero regardless of whether it would close the deal.
Thirty minutes for 18 scenarios in one sitting. The report is immediate and includes an overall score with band against a 70 per cent pass mark, three banded competencies with coaching interpretations, an AI-personalised narrative of strengths and development areas, a growth plan built from your weakest competency, and a review of every scenario with the reasoning behind each option. Everything is included; there is nothing further to unlock.
Because a test on the real product measures tenure, not judgement. A candidate from another sector cannot be compared to an internal applicant on product recall, but both can be compared on what they do with a specification they have just been handed. Use it at screening, then again at the end of onboarding: a seller whose Honesty About Limits band has not moved after learning the real product is telling you something.
The product is fictional, the buyers are at fictional companies, and the specifications are described in plain international English, so the test reads identically in any market. No local knowledge of vendors or industries is needed; that is the design. It is priced in INR and USD, and the current price in both currencies is shown on this page.
Foundation, core selling, specialist and sales-leadership bands — every one an original situational-judgement bank with weighted partial credit, a stated reason for every option, and ethics scored to zero on a mis-sell. Hire with the band that matches the role, or develop with the one that matches the gap.
