About the Test

A warehouse picker is a worker who is responsible for locating and retrieving items from a warehouse or storage facility. They typically work with a list or pick sheet that specifies the items to be picked, as well as the quantity and location of each item.

Warehouse pickers use a variety of tools and technologies to locate and retrieve items, such as barcode scanners, forklifts, and hand trucks. They may also be responsible for organizing and packing the picked items in preparation for shipping or delivery.

Warehouse pickers typically work in a fast-paced environment and may be required to walk or stand for long periods of time. They must also be able to lift and move heavy objects and pay attention to detail in order to accurately pick the correct items and quantities.

SKU velocity

SKU velocity refers to the rate at which a specific stock-keeping unit (SKU) is sold or moved within a warehouse or retail store. It can be used to help warehouse managers and pickers prioritize which items to pick and pack first.

2

Arranging the resources for pickup

Arranging the resources for pickup involves preparing the equipment and materials that will be needed for the picking process. This might include gathering the necessary carts, bins, or other containers, as well as making sure that the picker has access to the tools and technology they need to efficiently locate and retrieve the items on the picking list.

Performing the pickup

Performing the pickup involves physically going to the designated locations within the warehouse and retrieving the items on the picking list. This might involve using a scanner or other technology to locate the items and then physically picking them up and placing them in the designated containers.

4

Planning the pickup

Planning the pickup involves organizing and scheduling the work that needs to be done in order to efficiently and accurately pick the items on the list. This might involve creating a picking route or schedule that minimizes the time and distance required to pick the items, as well as ensuring that the picker has access to the necessary resources and equipment.

5

Performing post-pickup activities

Performing post-pickup activities involves completing any tasks that are required after the picking process is finished. This might include sorting and organizing the picked items, preparing them for shipping or delivery, or performing quality control checks to ensure that the correct items were picked.

The test is created by a subject-matter expert

Testlify’s skill tests are designed by experienced SMEs (subject matter experts). We evaluate these experts based on specific metrics such as expertise, capability, and their market reputation. Prior to being published, each skill test is peer-reviewed by other experts and then calibrated based on insights derived from a significant number of test-takers who are well-versed in that skill area. Our inherent feedback systems and built-in algorithms enable our SMEs to refine our tests continually.
