### "Great Assessment System "

April 25, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like that I can email the assessments to candidates when they are unavailable to take the test in our office.

Cons

I dislike that this program doesn't let you answer with shortcuts.

Hello and thanks for your comments. Yes, our Office tests do allow shortcuts for answers (we all use shortcuts, right?) so we want to talk with you! Your review is anonymous to us, so we can't contact you directly, but please ask your account manager or email sales@employtest.com so we can talk. Thanks for the great review!

### "Great resource for assessing candidate skills!"

August 6, 2021

5.0

I like the broad selection of assessments and the reports are very comprehensive. I appreciate the suggested questions at the end of the reports.

Pros

The reports are excellent and it has a broad range of assessments available.

Cons

It is a simple platform with not a lot of bells and whistles.

Review Source

Response from EmployTest

August 18, 2021

Thanks Chrisy for sharing your experiences with EmployTest. Yes our reports are thorough and our test selection is large (200+ tests). The admin dashboard is simple to learn (we prefer "minimalist") so you'll be using it with minutes of your first order. Thank you again!

### "Great Product"

April 4, 2023

5.0

Pros

EmployTest has really helped my organization identify qualified candidates when we're looking to really narrow down the candidate pool. The results are very easy to read.

Cons

Every time I purchase new tokens, I have to reach out to support to apply my tokens to our account. I recently purchased tokens an hour ago and its still not visible on our account which is frustrating.

Reason for choosing EmployTest

We didn't necessarily choose one over the other. We use assessments interchangeably.

Thanks Jericah--Glad to hear you think the reports are easy to understand. Appears that your upgrade to our latest dashboard will resolve any credit update issues you have. Please let us know if not. Thank you!

### "Good Product"

August 10, 2020

4.0

Very happy with the product.

Pros

We chose this product because they offer a customizable assessment at a fair price. Great customer service as well.

Cons

Some of the areas are very subjective and are therefore difficult to measure. However, this is more of an issue for the employer than it is the fault of the assessment.

Review Source

Response from EmployTest

August 18, 2020

Hi Lauren-thanks for your comments. Yes, the customizable tests, tailored to your job description, is what sets us apart from other options. Your firm uses a test that was designed specifically for your roles, which makes it pretty handy when measuring applicants' skills. We appreciate your past business and look forward to helping with your hiring in the future.

### "Great tool for testing competencies"

April 17, 2019

5.0

My experience with Employ Test has been great. I would highly recommend to anyone who would like to test candidates before hiring or test competencies of staff to create development plans.

Pros

It is a great tool to use when screening candidates on competitions. I really like is that it is user friendly, test results come to me directly soon after the test is completed and the response time when we contact the company is phenomenal.

Cons

I wish there were more test options such as mechanical aptitude.

### "Excellent Test for Microsoft Suite of Products"

March 10, 2023

5.0

Excellent service, tenure employees that you can speak with them directly as opposed to a chat.

Pros

Ease of use, variety of test and they keep up with the latest versions of Microsoft Office Suite of Products.

Cons

I haven't found anything at this point.

Reason for choosing EmployTest

Familiarity with the products, ease of administering the test, beneficial for selection and development after the person is hired and inexpensive. More costly to make a bad hire.

### "Helping us to make better decisions"

April 22, 2019

5.0

It helps us make better choices in the hiring process - we are a better organization because of EmployTest.

Pros

EmployTest helps us discover key traits in job applicants. Many times, we feel these candidates have these traits, but using the testing allows us confirmation by an independent means. It also allows us to target follow-up interview questions in areas where we may have some concerns.

Cons

Nothing - very happy with this product.

### "Great for pre-employment and current employment skills assessment!"

February 21, 2022

5.0

Our Account Manager, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], is absolutely amazing! One of the most responsive and attentive people we work with from all outside vendors.

Pros

Having the ability to choose from an assessment that has already been created or being able to create a custom assessment has allowed us to have the perfect test for all of our needs.

Cons

The only challenge we have is that you cannot use keyboard shortcuts when using the Microsoft skills assessments.

Review Source

They have great tests and exceptional customer service. I won't even meet a candidate until they have taken the tests . they save everyone's time.

Pros

### "Looking forward to working more with the program "

May 9, 2023

5.0

I started with the program receiving the tests from the administrator. I was a supervisor, doing the hiring. I left to open my own business. I have recently, started back as the administrator to aid in the hiring process. So I'm looking forward to seeing this side of the testing process.

Pros

Easy to navigateEasy to send to test takers

Cons

The excel test... It doesn't seem to give the user enough information to realize the test has begun. They believe it's just instructions instead of the test itself.

Thanks Kristina. There's a tutorial, showing how the test works, prior to each test. Then it starts when they click Begin test. We'll send your comments to our awesome tech team, who'll take a look. Happy hiring and good luck with your new role!

### "Great assessments, terrible dashboard"

July 6, 2021

4.0

The assessments appear to be about as non-biased as you can find. The assessments are the star here. The dashboard is a pain.

Pros

Really do not like having to order the assessments and also pay for more credits. Very time consuming and repetitive.

Cons

The dashboard is very old school and is not very user-friendly.

Response from EmployTest

July 8, 2021

"The assessments are the star". That's great feedback about how our tests are helping your hiring process. We'll connect with you to about our coming Dashboard updates, as well as the different ordering options we have. Purchasing in bulk (or annual license) may be better for you than the smaller volume purchases. Thanks for your comments.
