"Great product - got me what I needed"

Overall: I was trying to supplement the interview experience with a true evaluation the candidates technical ability. The Bryq test quickly and easily let us review their abilities. The candidates seemed to enjoy the test as well, and there were no technical issues at all.

Pros: Bryq was easy to use, had free trial that let me truly try out the software and gave us good insights from candidates that we wouldn't have been able to get otherwise

Cons: I had not issues with this software, it was really well organized

Reasons for Choosing Bryq: I looked at a bunch of different services, I chose Bryq because of the monthly payment option and the strong user facing interface. A lot of the other services looked like they were coded in 1995, and that's not what I wanted candidates to have as an early impression of our organization.

"This is a good return to your investment"

Overall: It is overall positive as it has given me the opportunity to also support my headhunters with a more robust process in their selection. We use Bryq either to safeguard that we have seen more behaviours that we can observe with an interview or as an instrument to make a quick screening. Or lately as a tool for helping us support some cases via guided feedback.

Pros: I loved the feel like, the ease of its use, the vast reporting on skills and competencies. The personality testing is also very strong and can be matched with the parts of interviewing and your competence guide to give you outstanding results. For the time being the latest step is done under a specific pricing. I can do it though cause I am a trained psychologists and have used psychometrics for years.

Cons: It is too easy to use and it may get Managers who are not trained in psychometrics to jump into errors. You need a basic minimum level of competence to use them. We need an online training and a short examination as a prerequisite. As an Occupational Psychologist I need a bit more support in providing a more scientific use of the instrument

Reasons for Choosing Bryq: It was easier to be used by the average headhunter who lacks the skills of a psychometrician. I f I had the Evalion t would need my support at all times
Switched From: ProfileXT
Reasons for Switching to Bryq: The product was charging by the piece and it was asking you to buy you a good amount of tokens in order to provide you with a comparable price. I needed to have it rated at all times. Should you neede to have an online platform to do your own ratings you would be charged further.

"Overall good test tool for recruiters"

Pros: The quality of the tests also measures the overall capabilities of the candidate needed for the role, also, it develops a good workflow for the candidate to measure other relevant aspects, such as personality traits.

Cons: Sometimes we encountered problems with migration of the scores to our ATS platforms in the form of delayed results or manual search. And sometimes we also found somewhat difficult to establish and publish the tests for the candidates in a matter of ease of use.

"Great tool for enhancing our recruitment process"

Pros: 1) The way it empowers us to have a more standardised assessment process for all candidates around the globe, regardless of whether they are in remote locations or in markets where we have offices -in parallel giving candidates the flexibility of completing the assessment at a time and place that works best for them 2) Its dynamic and "everyday work-like" interface, for which we're overall getting fantastic feedback from candidates taking the assessment 3) The personal feedback candidates receive from the tool, upon completion of the test 4) The graphic representation of results, in both summary and detailed formats

Cons: 1) Its integration with the Applicant Tracking System we use, Workable, was a little cumbersome to begin with, but this has by now been radically improved 2) As with any tool that offers multiple tailored options for the client (a good thing in principle), care is needed to not get overly bugged with trying to parametrise everything too much, per position, thereby complicating internal discussions and the overall process -which otherwise is very simple & straightforward!

"Hire the best people"

Pros: We used Bryq to screen hundreds of candidates. Thanks to the software we identified some great candidates (and we hired one of these) who perhaps wouldn't had make it to the interview stage given they had no big-name university on their resume. Easy and almost fun to use.

Cons: I would like more transparency on the science behind the tests they use.

"We've finally stopped wasting time on people who don't fit our needs or our company"

Overall: Huge improvement in both the speed and quality of our hiring.

Pros: Easy to set up role profiles for our needs and then great ranking based on fit. We love the candidate report that allows us to do great interviews in just one hour. Only took us a couple of days to start using effectively.

Cons: Assessment is longer than some (over 40 mins), but then again we get feedback that would normally need 4-5 different assessments.

"An awesome assessment platform that doesn't break the bank"

Pros: I love how easy Bryq was to set up, deploy, and use. The candidate profiles are totally customizable and the reports are easy to read and understand. I am able to find candidates that are a great fit for my organization, especially those who may have been overlooked or passed over. We love using Bryq!

Cons: I don't have any cons. Bryq helps us save time and money and provides incredible value for my hiring team.
