What will recruiters see after an assessment?

Review the total alongside section results, attempt status and responses. Where proctoring is enabled, inspect recorded activity separately from the capability scores.

For a practical review method, read how to interpret a candidate assessment report.

Common questions

What teams ask before getting started.

Can we upload our own assessment questions?

Yes. AssessEngine supports bulk question uploads through Excel. Employers can use their own questions, the available library or a combination. Review the content, answer keys and scoring before launching the assessment.

Can we randomise questions?

Yes. You can keep a larger pool of questions and turn on randomisation, so each candidate gets a different set from that pool.

Can candidates use a mobile or laptop?

Yes. Candidates open the test in a browser on a laptop or phone. No app is installed.

What results can recruiters review and export?

Recruiters can review overall and section scores, detailed responses and assessment status. Results can be exported to Excel for further review and shortlisting. View an illustrative report.

Can we customise assessment sections and scoring?

Yes. Employers can configure sections, question content, marks and pass criteria. Ask for a demonstration using the assessment structure intended for your role.

Can I combine aptitude and technical questions in one assessment?

Yes. Configure sections and questions around the role, with appropriate marks and instructions. An aptitude score and a technical knowledge score answer different questions; review section results rather than assuming the combined total tells the whole story. Compare aptitude and technical assessments.
