The Office Manager test assesses the ability to monitor, review, and be responsible for systems related to the overall administration of a business, including purchasing, facility management, and record keeping.
The assessment includes solving work-sample tasks, such as:
- Creating, managing, and evaluating budgets.
- Prioritizing, scheduling, and supervising the work of self and others.
- Communicating appropriately and effectively.
A good office manager or chief administrative officer needs strong business math, time management, attention to detail, and communication skills to responsibly manage the overall administration of a business.

What others say
Simple, straight-forward technical testing
TestDome is simple, provides a reasonable (though not extensive) battery of tests to choose from, and doesn't take the candidate an inordinate amount of time. It also simulates working pressure with the time limits.
