The battery candidates report

What Capgemini says it values
Capgemini publishes its own framework, and behavioural screening tends to mirror the published values. Knowing them will not hand you answers — questionnaires flag inconsistent role-play — but it tells you which of your genuine strengths are worth letting through clearly:
- Honesty
- Boldness
- Trust
- Freedom
- Team spirit
- Modesty
- Fun
What the screening reads for
Across candidate reports and the sector's published role profiles, the behavioural side of Capgemini screening effectively reads for: team spirit · boldness & drive · trust & integrity. The aptitude side is simpler to summarise — accuracy at pace — and it is also the side that responds fastest to practice.
How to prepare
Run the timed formats until the interface and the pacing are boring, then use the per-exercise rank to find the module that would drag your profile down and concentrate there. For the personality questionnaire, take a full practice pass first: seeing your own profile before the employer does is the one legitimate edge available, and answering consistently beats answering “perfectly”.
