Custom Assessments
Custom Assessments are an invaluable tool for creating tailored assessments to evaluate specific skills and qualities for any job role. Custom Assessments allow you to design tests from scratch or let Kingsley, your AI assistant, generate them for you based on job descriptions. Whether you’re assessing Excel proficiency or communication skills, you can group related questions under skill categories and control how answers are presented. Once an assessment is completed, detailed reports track performance, giving you insights into your candidate’s strengths.
