Introducing Assessment-based Filters in Zoho Recruit

Introducing Assessment-based Filters in Zoho Recruit



We're thrilled to announce a handy new feature: Filtering Candidates by Assessment Answers. This tool allows you to refine your candidate search based on their performance in screening tests or assessments. It's a great way to find candidates who meet your specific requirements, making your hiring process smoother and more effective.

Benefits

Spot Top Performers

Easily identify top-performing candidates who have done well in assessments. This helps you focus on candidates with a high potential for success in the role.

Speed Up Selection

Quickly narrow down your candidate pool using assessment response filters. This saves you time and effort during the initial screening phase, letting you concentrate on candidates with the right skills and abilities.

Tailored Searches

Customize your candidate search by filtering based on specific assessment criteria. This ensures that the candidates you consider closely match your requirements for the job.

Engage Effectively

Filter candidates based on their assessment completion status or specific responses. This allows you to engage with them more effectively, providing targeted feedback and communication based on their performance.

Continuous Improvement

Analyze assessment response filters over time to identify trends in candidate performance. This data-driven approach helps you continuously improve your recruitment process and get better hiring outcomes.

How to Filter Candidates by Assessment Answers

  • Go to the Candidates module and select Assessment Name from the Filters panel on the left.
  • Choose the Assessment Category, Assessment, Question, and Answer/Option from their respective drop-down menus.
    Optionally, you can change the Operator used for the filter (like "is," "contains," "does not contain," etc.).
  • Click Apply Filter, and you'll see a list of candidates who match your criteria on the right.

  • Now, if you click the Rating icon of a candidate, only reviews that match your filter criteria will be displayed. You will need to return to the previous page and click the Clear button in the Filters section to see all reviews.

Say you've filtered candidates by their assessment answers. You can then select multiple candidates and send them additional assessments, associate them with jobs, change their status, and much more.

We encourage you to give this feature a try to streamline your recruitment process. For more information, refer our help article on Assessments in Zoho Recruit. If you have any questions or need assistance, reach out to our customer support team at support@zohorecruit.com or leave a comment below.
