A fair verdict

  • You want to try the test yourself, as a candidate would, before anyone is invited
  • Candidates need the test in English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French or Arabic

Testlify may fit if…

What to look for when choosing a skills test

Whichever tool you pick, these questions help. Here is how H-Evaluate answers each one.

  1. Does it fit the job?

    A test should reflect the real work of the role, not a general skill.

    H-Evaluate: Builds the test from your job description.

  2. Can you try it first?

    You should see exactly what candidates will see before you invite anyone.

    H-Evaluate: Preview the whole test as a candidate. Nothing is recorded.

  3. Is it the same for everyone?

    Fair comparisons need every candidate for a role to take the same test.

    H-Evaluate: Once candidates start, the test for that role doesn't change.

  4. Will candidates start well?

    Clear instructions and a familiar language help people show what they can do.

    H-Evaluate: Six languages, a device check and a practice round before the timer starts.

  5. Does it show how they use AI?

    If the job uses AI, you need to see how candidates work with it.

    H-Evaluate: The optional AI Sandbox gives candidates a real task with an AI assistant.
