A narrated tour: building an assessment, sharing the link, and reviewing the scored answers.

Assessly replaces the screening call

An assessment is a short set of questions from the job. Candidates answer it from a link, before anyone books an interview.

Screening by phone

  • A 30-minute call for every candidate
  • Each call asks slightly different questions
  • Notes end up in different places
  • You learn about skills in the interview

Screening with Assessly

  • One link, answered in the candidate’s own time
  • Everyone gets the same questions
  • Every answer scored, with the reason beside it
  • You interview the people who showed the skill

How it works

Three steps, from an empty account to answers you can compare.

Why teams use Assessly

What changes in your hiring process, and what makes it happen.

  • Fewer screening calls

    Candidates answer in their own time, and you read the answers when it suits you. No calendar to coordinate.

  • A reason for every score

    The AI writes down why it gave each score. You check its reading against the answer and give your own grade.

  • A fair comparison

    Everyone answers the same questions and is scored against the same criteria. You compare answers, not résumés.

  • Pasted answers are flagged

    Text pasted in one go, AI writing patterns, tab switches and instant answers are noted, with the evidence.

  • Candidates finish the test

    No account, no app and no install. They open the link on any device, and their progress is saved.

  • You keep the decision

    Nobody is passed or rejected automatically. You set each status and grade, and notes keep their author.

Example data. The candidates and the reviewer are invented.

How every answer gets its score

For each question you write what a good answer does and what lowers the score. The AI measures every answer against the same criteria and writes the reason.

The question

A customer cancels and you have 15 minutes with them. What is your priority?

Real question from the Customer Success template.

A good answer

  1. 1Finds out why and when the customer decided
  2. 2Uses a concrete case from experience
  3. 3Says what the team should do next

Lowers the score

  • Generic phrases that fit any customer
  • Offers a discount before knowing the cause

Example criteria. You write your own for each question.

In those 15 minutes I am not trying to win them back. I want to know when the decision was actually made, because if it was two months ago the problem is not what they are about to tell me. I have seen a case where the trigger was the sponsor leaving and nobody on our side noticed.

Against the criteria

  • Finds out why and when the customer decidedMet
  • Uses a concrete case from experienceMet
  • Says what the team should do nextPartly

Why this score. Looks for the cause and when the decision was made, and backs it with a real case. The next step for the team is implied rather than stated.

No integrity flags

Example data. The candidates are invented; the question is real.

What happens to candidate data

  • Consent, word for word

    Each consent is stored with the exact text the candidate read.

  • Deletion on request

    Candidates ask for a copy or deletion through their own link.

  • Retention you set

    You choose how long candidate data is kept.

  • Roles and SSO

    Admin, editor and viewer roles. SSO on the Enterprise plan.

On the personality test. The Big Five compares a person against themselves rather than against other people, so it does not rank candidates. We say so on the result screen itself.

For candidates, it is a link they open in the browser

The more a hiring process asks before it starts, the more people drop out. Candidates do not create an account or install anything. They answer and they are done.

  • No account, nothing to install. The candidate opens the link in a phone or desktop browser and starts.
  • Questions in 12 languages. Write questions in any of the 12, from Spanish to Japanese. The screen around them is in English or Portuguese.
  • They can stop and come back. Progress is saved, so a meeting halfway through does not cost what they already answered.
