Senior Human Resources Manager Human Resources Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Pre made Test library saves a lot of time " December 22, 2022 4.0 Pros As an agency recruiter, Testlify has been a real lifesaver with its many pre-made tests for general skills, job positions such as project management, attention to detail and numeric reasoning. This helps us to accurately screen the aptitude of the candidates for the requests we receive from our clients. Cons We encountered a problem where a test couldn't be saved due to either not entering the title first or not inviting the candidates, leading to a frustrating experience.

Senior Project Development Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Unbiased Hiring " December 19, 2022 4.0 Testlify is a powerful tool for teams of any size to utilize. Not only can it provide help in recruitment, but it is great for team building and relationship development as well. It offers assistance like helping teams identify strengths and weaknesses, build skills and strategies, improve communication, and identify potential challenges. Pros I find Testlify to be an incredibly effective platform that is very user-friendly and easy to use. I appreciate all of the tools available that help me better understand personality profiles, and the support team is always responsive and helpful. What I like best is how fast and simple it is for candidates to complete yet still providing an in-depth analysis. Overall, I am very satisfied with Testlify. Cons I really like this platform overall, but one thing I find challenging is the manual process of starting our assessments for candidates. Fortunately, I have always had the support I need to use this program successfully. Alternatives considered [TestGorilla](https://www.capterra.com/p/203823/TestGorilla/) Reason for choosing Testlify Price is very strange . They charge per candidate. Testlify provides unlimited candidates Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Avoid this product" January 3, 2023 1.0 Pros I was drawn to Testlify based on the pricing model, making it easier and cheaper to run assessments for candidates. Cons After testing multiple qualified candidates with years of experience in their respective fields, I noticed that the test scores were coming back quite low and did not make sense. I gave several tests to myself and noticed that the tests were riddled with grammatical, design, and linguistic errors. Some of the questions were not questions at all, but a random sentence with four options to choose from. I took screenshots and shared them with support, requesting a refund (which was granted). After the refund was granted I received a kind email from the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], who asked me to retake the tests after they were looked at and corrected. Having qualified candidates take these tests was a complete embarrassment to my business. I would avoid this product at all costs. Review Source Krutika R.

Furthermore, it gives us a more accurate representation of any potential hire's actual abilities in a professional manner that goes beyond reviewing a vast amount of resumes. Cons I could not find any drawbacks. The candidate experience and the recruitment process has dynamically improved. Earlier it used to take us 20 days to hire a good candidate.
