In an effort to help organizations to better assess candidates, their level of expertise and knowledge of relevant subjects, Digital Edge and Appcore Solutions (https://appcoresolutions.com/) have designed and built an IT Skills Assessment Platform.

This platform gives organizations the ability to create custom tailored online tests for each job opening. Additionally, this system also allows your organization to invite your candidates to take relevant tests and preview the results.

Currently, Digital Edge utilizes this system to pre-screen candidates before an initial face-to-face meeting. We invite you to take a test drive and share your opinion about the system, its concepts and features.

Why test skills before the interview

A short, role-specific test shows what a candidate can actually do and saves interview time for the people most likely to succeed. It also gives every candidate the same questions, which makes decisions fairer and easier to explain.

  • Write questions from the real work of the role, not from trivia.
  • Keep tests short and tell candidates how long they take.
  • Use the results to start the interview conversation, not to replace it.

Digital Edge keeps its engineering teams in-house and hires for hands-on skill. See careers at Digital Edge.

Good practice for skills tests

Tell candidates in advance what the test covers and how the results are used. Review the questions every year, because tools and versions change quickly in IT. Compare scores only between candidates for the same role, and always give people a chance to explain an answer in the interview.
