Transversal: to assess professional skills that may be relevant to several job families
Cognitive: to assess cognitive skills (reasoning, concentration, perception, attention, memory, etc.)
Language: to assess language skills (written level)
Personality: to learn more about your candidatesβ personality and possibly guide future interview questions

Via email: either by filling in their address directly or by filling in an excel file that will allow you to invite all your candidates in one click
By using a public link that you can copy
By generating a QR code
π‘ To test your assessment and to put yourself in the shoes of your future candidates, start by taking the test yourself. You can also invite your colleagues to gather their feedback and get an idea of the expected scores for the different tests.
