Attempting An Assessment

Last updated on Jul 01, 2024

Pausing An Assessment

Testfuse lets candidates pause an assessment while attempting it. To pause an assessment, you must finish one complete test type while attempting it.

However, if you do not see a timer on your screen while attempting the test, your assessment is paused, thus, you can safely return to the dashboard. You will be able to resume where you left off.

Resuming An Assessment

It just takes one click for candidates to resume an assessment on Testfuse. You can right away resume an assessment after pausing it but if you have returned to the dashboard here is what you must do:

  1. Navigate on the left side menu to find Assessments.

  2. Click on Assessments and you will see a list of all active assessments that you have been invited to. Alongside, you will see assessments that are in progress.

  3. Click on Resume on the assessment that you want to resume.

Qualifying Questions

Candidates cannot attempt an assessment unless they correctly answer the qualifying questions.

If you fail to answer qualifying questions you will be directed back to the dashboard. If not, then you will be further able to attempt the assessment.

Welcome Video

Candidates get to see the welcome video as set up by the recruiter. This way, you can get better insights into the company and job before attempting the assessment.
