1 — Types of Tests & Question Content in yAssess

yAssess is capable to have 4 different types of tests in a single Custom Test for assessing candidates:

1.1 — Adaptive Tests

yAssess has an option of using multiple choice question (MCQ) based adaptive tests, unlike the choice of using only fixed tests available in the market.
Adaptive tests are more insightful than the fixed tests and it portrays a better picture of the assessed candidates than the latter. Performance of each candidate is independent of the performance of others. Adaptive tests negate any chance of probability of one candidate answering either difficult or easy questions.
The difficulty level of subsequent question is decided by a candidate’s result in the preceding question. e.g. — if a candidate answers a particular question correctly, the next question’s difficulty level will be slightly more than the one answered. The difficulty level of a question depends on the number of epoch the question has been answered correctly within short time interval. More number of correct answers in lesser time, easier the difficulty level of the question and vice versa.

1.2 — Subjective Tests

If you want to evaluate candidates’ response to subjective questions, you can create subjective tests section along with adaptive or fixed test.
Companies or HR Managers can choose any number of subjective questions assigning weightage/marks to each question individually and also allotting a passing marks criterion.
The system and flow for candidates to answer the subjective questions (typing answers) and for evaluators to score the answers is very easy and seamless.
The scores of subjective tests automatically add up in the total scores of the candidates.

1.3 — Typing Test

If you wish to assess the typing speed of candidates, you can add a small typing test to the adaptive or fixed test.
Assessor can input any text based content as the question, to which the candidates have to type the same through the laptop/computer keyboard.
Youth4work’s Typing Test evaluates candidates’ speed & accuracy and the reliability is comparable to world’s best typing test engines.

1.4 — Psychometric Tests

It generates a simple and easy to interpret report of a candidate on following 5 parameters: Openness to Experiences, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism
