WHY SKILLS TEST?
Pre-employment Testing
Being able to identify relevant candidates quickly is always an
issue for recruiters and direct employees alike; by implementing
a skills test at interview stage enables your recruitment process
to run more effectively and saves on time and costs associated
with interviewing unsuitable candidates.
The benefits of implementing a Pre-employment skills test
include-
- Hire with even more confidence
- Allows the candidate to prove their worth beyond their CV
- Higher interview and placement hit rate
Internal Employee Assessments
Internal employee assessments are crucial to understanding
how your employee’s are developing. With ever advancing
technologies it is pertinent that your staff are confident in
utilising the various pieces of software and hardware that allow
them to perform their role effectively.
An internal employee assessment can be used in the following
situations-
- Assess training needs- Use questions from beginner to expert
to determine specific training needs
- Skills Gap- Use question level and type stats to determine the
gaps in an individual’s skill set
- Employee Appraisals- Create road maps for growth and set
improvement goals that are to be re-tested on a regular basis
.
Using skills tests as part of our selection
process has dramatically increased the quality
of candidates being sent for interview. It gives
us confidence in the person and creditability of
their skills, making our clients happier as it
speeds up their hiring process.

situations-

assessments creating a road map and setting improvement
goals

HOW IT WORKS
All tests are taken and administered via a secure online
website in which each test user would have a unique session
ID to login with.
Once the test user has logged on, the site will be prepopulated
with the pre-ordered tests; the tests will begin once the user
has clicked begin.
All results are then sent back to Field Recruitment head office
for our test administrators to correlate the results into a
readable report; they are then sent back to the client/test
orderer.
The test report will include a variety of data sets to allow you
to pin point exact areas of strengths and weaknesses.
The data sets are the same for all tests and include-
Report Data Sets-
Questions Correct- A simple X out of X reporting formula.
Percentage Correct- Above score put into a % score.
Global Average- Compare the test user against the global
average of the chosen assessment.
Detail Score Report- View each question topic and type,
whether or not the user answered correctly and how long it
took to answer that question.
Question Level Stat’s- Shows how many questions were
answered correctly within each of the beginner, Intermediate
and advanced levels.
Question Type Stat’s- Shows how many questions were
answered correctly within each test topic. For example1: the
excel test covers Formatting, Formulas, Functions and
Application basics.

All tests are split into beginner, Intermediate and advanced
sections; providing a basis for separating candidates who have
limited exposure from those who are conversant with in a
specific topic.
