As AI tools become increasingly prevalent, ensuring a fair and authentic assessment process is critical. Testlify’s proctoring features include AI Assistance detection to restrict candidates from using AI plugins or tools during assessments. This ensures that the integrity of the process is maintained, and results accurately reflect the candidate's abilities. By enabling this feature, employers can confidently evaluate candidates without the risk of external assistance compromising the results.

Step-by-Step Guide to Enable AI Assistance Detection:

  1. Login to Your Testlify Workspace:

  2. Access Proctoring Settings for an Existing Assessment:

    • Locate the assessment you wish to edit.

    • Click on the three dots beside the assessment name.

    • Select the "Edit" option to access the proctoring settings for that specific assessment.

  3. Enable AI Assistance Detection:

    • On the "Setup Assessment" page, navigate to the Settings tab.

    • Select Proctoring > AI Assistance.

    • Check the box to enable AI Assistance detection.

    • Below the checkbox, set the termination limit (e.g., the number of violations allowed before the candidate is terminated from the assessment).

    • Save your changes.

How It Works:

Once a candidate begins the assessment, Testlify’s system actively monitors for AI plugins or external assistance tools added to the browser or used during the assessment. If an AI tool is detected:

  1. A warning will be displayed to the candidate.

  2. The system tracks violations. If the candidate exceeds the set termination limit, they will be automatically terminated from the assessment and the logs can be seen under candidate result page.

This feature ensures candidates adhere to the rules and provides recruiters with reliable and unbiased results.

Possible FAQs:

  1. What happens if a candidate unintentionally triggers the AI Assistance detection?
    A warning will be issued, allowing the candidate to adjust before further action is taken.

  2. Can I adjust the termination limit after enabling AI Assistance?
    Yes, you can revisit the proctoring settings and modify the termination limit anytime.

  3. Will candidates be informed about AI Assistance restrictions?
    Yes, candidates will see a notification at the beginning of the assessment about the rules and consequences of using AI tools.

  4. What if a candidate disputes the termination?
    Recruiters can review detailed logs of the assessment session to verify the validity of the termination.

Conclusion:

By enabling AI Assistance detection, you can ensure a fair and controlled assessment process. If you have any further questions or require assistance, please contact our support team at [email protected].
