Easy Test Customization

The user interface is so straightforward that almost anybody that owns a device can customize questionnaires. Hiring managers can save time on creating tests and save time on interviewing irrelevant candidates. This is all thanks to Interview Mocha’s cloud deployment for assessments. As a result, hiring managers can weed out undeserving candidates and only spend face-to-face (or even virtual) time with job-fitting candidates.

Advanced Cheating Prevention

Everything, as they say, is on the internet these days. A candidate can easily look up the answers on Google or whatnot. You don’t want this and Interview Mocha has the right thing for you. The platform offers a remote proctor solution for cheating prevention. This involves audio/video and image real-time proctoring. In this way, test-takers can focus on the test and avoid malpractices. For campus and bulk-hiring,  the risk of cheating is higher. Interview Mocha deals with this by preselecting valid IPs in which the tests can be taken. Also, questions can be randomized to avoid cheating risk.

Powerful Hiring Analytics

On Interview Mocha, you can be on top of everything. You will be able to get details on candidate pipelines, performance, score distribution, section analysis, and test status. Candidate feedback is also included in this easily generated instant report. Furthermore, you can run comparative analyses and compare the tests performances of your candidates. In this way, you and other stakeholders can make data-driven hiring decisions.

Moreover, recruiter performance analytics is also available. This keeps tabs on how recruiters are performing. This report includes the number of test invites, attempts, and test completion ration among many others. As a result, you can assess you and your team’s performance and make necessary changes along the way.

It is known to integrate well with SmartRecruiters, Zapier, Taleo, Bullhorn, iCIMS, and many others.

Problem #1: Campus hiring is worrisome

Solution: Testing candidates in person with pen and paper is a huge task. You have to set up the venue, the materials, and the questions way beforehand. You also have to coordinate with proctors. But when you set it up on Interview Mocha, it becomes way easier. Thanks to features like scheduling, cheating prevention, and automated skill assessment. There is no need to visit the site two days before or set up proctors. When you have the platform integrated with your ATS, you can just schedule the test directly and send the links to test-takers. All will be taken cared of for you. Once test-takers are done, you will be able to get insights from reports like comparative analysis to better inform your hiring decisions.

Problem #2: Specialist (especially tech) hiring is so dependent on specialists (tech) teams 

Solution: Because of Interview Mocha having expertly crafted and validated ready skills test, your recruiters do not have to be tech hiring specialists to do a good job. All they have to do and choose the right technical skills test to send out to applicants. For example, when a company needs Java developers or Front-End developers, their recruiters do not have to Java or Front-End experts to be able to hire the right candidates. It is the same way that recruiters don’t have to be experts in marketing to be able to hire the marketing staff. They can stay being expert recruiters. All they have to do is send out the test links and rely on Interview Mocha’s cheating protection protocols and get results instantly.

Problem #3: Competency mapping is complex

Solution: Interview Mocha’s employee assessments help managers find the right employee for the right job. Now, you can standardize your competency mapping efforts and assess employees at their current job roles. Reports will then give accurate insights into the competency level of each employee. Furthermore, the skills assessment tests are transparent and employee feedback can be gathered. In this way, management and employees can work on developing their talents and aligning skills & career goals to company objectives.
