Assessments help screen candidates objectively before committing recruiter time to interviews.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Types of Assessments Used<\/h2>\n<p>Pre-employment assessments in Zoho Recruit cover a range of formats: aptitude tests, domain knowledge quizzes, coding challenges, personality questionnaires, and situational judgement tests. Assessments can be built directly within Zoho Recruit or delivered through integrated third-party platforms. Results are attached to the candidate record and visible to the recruiter and hiring manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Automating Assessment Invitations<\/h2>\n<p>Zoho Recruit can trigger assessment invitations automatically when a candidate reaches a defined pipeline stage. For example, when an application moves from Screened to Assessment Stage, Zoho Recruit sends the candidate a link to complete the test within a set deadline. This reduces manual coordination and ensures all candidates at that stage are evaluated consistently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>Example:<\/strong> A banking company in Mumbai assigns a financial aptitude test to all candidates who pass the HR screen for a Credit Analyst role. The test is sent automatically when the candidate moves to the Assessment Stage. Candidates who score above 70% advance to the interview round; the rest are disqualified with feedback.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/online-test-zoho-recruit\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Online Test<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/pipeline-stage-zoho-recruit\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Pipeline Stage<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/scorecard-zoho-recruit\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Scorecard<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/candidate-zoho-recruit\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Candidate<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>What is a Pre-employment Assessment in Zoho Recruit?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A Pre-employment Assessment in Zoho Recruit is an evaluation sent to candidates to measure skills or aptitude before interviews.
