Results per section

Results per section, not just one score

Group questions in sections, such as “Fundamentals” and “Practical task”. When a candidate finishes, you see how they did in each section, so two candidates with the same total no longer look the same.

  • Scores per section next to the overall result, with a pass mark and an outcome
  • Compare candidates side by side, section by section
  • Clear scoring rules for every question type

Candidate experience

A test center that works on any phone, on any network

Candidates open their invitation and start, on a phone or a laptop. Answers are saved as they go, so a dropped connection never loses work, and the test center shows your logo.

  • Designed for phones first, accessible with a keyboard and screen reader
  • Keeps working through network drops and syncs when the connection returns
  • The timer runs on our servers, so reloading or switching devices doesn’t cost time
  • Candidates are told up front what is monitored

Results you can trust

Built so you can rely on every result

A skills test is only useful if the result is fair and honest. These rules are built into the platform.

  • The server owns the timer

    Time limits are enforced by our servers, not by the candidate’s browser.

  • Answers never reach the browser

    Correct answers stay on the server, so they can’t be read from the page.

  • Integrity signals, not verdicts

    Tab switches and pasted answers are shown next to the score for you to review. Nothing fails a candidate automatically.

  • Secure and private by default

    Every company’s data is isolated, encrypted and hosted in the EU, with GDPR tools built in.

  • Ready for other languages

    The candidate interface is built to be translated; English is available today, more languages are on the way.

  • Built for teams

    Unlimited users, each with their own role. A dashboard shows what needs your review, and every hiring decision stays in one place.
