    Part 3: Link an assessment to a Workable job

    1. In Testlify, go to Assessments and create a new assessment or open an existing one.

    1. Select the tests relevant to the job role and proceed to the assessment settings.
    2. Open the Integration tab within the assessment settings.

    1. From the ATS dropdown, select Workable.
    2. From Job Posting, choose the active job from your Workable account.
    3. From Stage Name, select the pipeline stage at which candidates should receive the assessment invitation.
    4. Click Save to apply the settings.

    Once a candidate reaches the selected stage, they will automatically receive the assessment invitation. Their score will appear in both Testlify and the Workable platform.

    Frequently asked questions

    1. When is the candidate invited?

      The invitation is triggered after the assessment is linked to the job and the candidate is moved to the designated stage.

    2. What if the candidate is already in the designated stage before the assessment is linked?

      Candidates already in that stage will not receive an invitation. Move them to a different stage and then back to the designated stage to trigger the invite.

    3. Can I use the "Applied" or "Sourced" stage to trigger invitations?

      No. These are default entry stages and cannot be used to trigger assessment invitations. Choose a later pipeline stage instead.
