Frequently Asked Questions
Introduction #
What is Entalent? #
Entalent is an online technical assessment platform that leverages AI technology to help HR professionals, hiring managers, and recruitment consultants efficiently and accurately evaluate candidates’ software development knowledge and programming skills. We offer a curated question bank, automated grading, and professional analysis reports to enhance the quality and efficiency of your hiring process.
Who uses this platform? #
Entalent is designed for HR teams, hiring managers, and talent acquisition consultants. They can use the platform to assign assessments and share the test link with candidates through any preferred channel. Candidates can then complete the test online using the provided link.
Do I need to install any software? #
No installation is required. All assessments can be completed directly through major desktop or mobile browsers. We recommend using the latest version of a desktop browser for the best compatibility and user experience.
Tests & Workflow #
How do I create an assessment? #
Entalent offers flexible workflows to help HR and managers assign assessments based on their needs:
-
Create from a job position
Start by creating a job through the “Job Management” feature, filling in the relevant role details, and optionally linking test templates. Next, add or assign candidates to the job, then use the candidate list to click “Assign Test” and select the appropriate test template. This method maintains the association between job and candidate for easier tracking and management.
-
Assign from the candidate list
You can add a candidate via the “Candidate Management” feature, then click “Assign Test” next to their name. Choose a suitable assessment template in the dialog to complete the assignment and obtain the test link.
-
Assign from a test template
Select a test template from the “Assessment Library,” click “Assign Test,” and choose multiple candidates at once. This is ideal for bulk assignments.
Note: The platform does not automatically send test links. You need to manually share the generated link with candidates via email, chat apps, or other methods.
Do test links expire? #
Test links do not expire by default, but you can set a valid time window. During test assignment, you may specify the “Earliest Start Time” and “Latest Start Time.” Candidates can only begin the test within this time frame.
Do candidates need to register to take the test? #
No registration is required. Invited candidates can access the test directly by clicking the link (no sign-up or login needed).
Can a test be paused? #
Currently, tests must be completed in a single session. Pausing or resuming later is not supported. Candidates are advised to ensure a stable internet connection and a suitable environment before starting the test.
Scoring & Reports #
How are assessments scored? #
The system automatically grades candidate submissions. Multiple-choice questions include both single-answer and multi-answer types. Multi-answer questions apply a penalty for incorrect selections, with a minimum score of 0. For coding questions, the submitted code is executed in a secure sandbox environment and automatically graded based on correctness and completeness. A detailed score report and evaluation summary are then generated, with a recommendation on whether the candidate has passed.
You can view each candidate’s test status, scores, and report via the “Candidate Management” section. For completed tests, you may also manually mark candidates as “Passed” or “Failed” and assign an overall evaluation score for future reference.
Can I download the test report? #
Currently, downloading reports is not supported. However, you can view the full submission and detailed scores in the dashboard.
Credits & Plans #
How is pricing structured? #
We use a credit-based pricing model. Each test assignment deducts a fixed number of credits. You can purchase plans based on your needs, and credits do not expire.
For details, please see our Pricing.
Do credits expire? #
No. All purchased credits currently have no expiration date. If this policy changes in the future, we will announce it in advance.
What actions consume credits? #
Credits are deducted once a test is assigned, regardless of whether the candidate completes it. If the candidate hasn’t started the test, you may cancel the assignment at any time and the credits will be refunded automatically.
