2 Why do we need a pre-employment testing service?

-
6 Is there a demo that explains your role in hiring applicants for an organization?
Yes, you can have a look at our video that explains the entire process of applying and testing before the interview.
-
7 Can I customize the tests, or are they just off-the-shelf selections?
TestUP gives you absolute freedom to customize your online account to manage as many candidates and employment tests as you wish. At TestUP we understand that it can be important for certain roles to have very specific questions based on company culture, so we allow you to even request a contributor account and upload employment tests that you've written yourself. We will keep your tests private so you can be sure you're the only company administering them.
-
8 Can I compare candidates on the basis of their tests results and evaluations?
Through TestUP's Candidate Dashboard, you can easily compare applicants across multiple criteria. Our proprietary Applicant Score Analysis System identifies which particular questions were answered correctly by an applicant, which were answered incorrectly, which were skipped, and the amount of time spent on each question. Within minutes, you can trim the talent pool from 50 to the top 5.

You can create additional candidate profiles for FREE—there is no charge for adding new candidates. Assess an unlimited number of applicants per job opening at no additional cost.

10 Where should I use pre-employment testing in the hiring process?
