Sending a Candidate an Assessment Automatically

Create a Workflow and add an Order assessment step to it. Choose where it should trigger - for example, at a particular stage - and which package to send. Every candidate who reaches this step will automatically receive the assessment.

  4. Click Save.

This creates and sends the order immediately, the same way a workflow step would.

What Happens After You Send It

Recruitment Marketing sends a reminder if they haven't started after a few days (2 days from when they were invited), then a follow-up if they're still not finished. Once they complete the assessment, the result and status update automatically.

Checking Where a Candidate Is Up To

You can check the progress in the following areas:

  • Assessment Invitations List: Navigate to Assessments > Invitations from the side menu. Search by candidate name to see their status at a glance.

    A candidate's status will be one of:
    • Invited: Sent, not yet finished.
    • Incomplete: Started but didn't finish.
    • Pending Results: Finished, awaiting the score.
    • Passed/Failed: Result is in.
    • Test Provisioning Failed: Setup failed; resend the test.
