Workspace Account

1.What is the difference between Admin and Member permissions?

While Admins and Members do have similar access rights, only an admin can deactivate a team member's access to the workspace. This is the main difference between the role of an Admin and a Member. Though a Member can add another teammate to the workspace he/she cannot deactivate a person's access.

2.How can I add a team member to my workspace?

  • From your workspace account, under the profile icon, click 'Settings'

  • Click 'Users' and click on the 'Add Member' button

  • Enter the team member's email ID and select his/her role from the drop-down list (Admin/Member)

Candidate

1. How can I delete a candidate's details?

In certain situations, it may be necessary to remove a candidate from your assessment for various reasons. It could be due to an error in entering their name or email address or if you want to reinvite them to the same assessment.

  • From your workspace dashboard, under the Assessment tab (top left) click on Assessment Name

  • The page will open with the candidate's details

  • At the end of the candidate name panel, click on the three dots icon and select 'Delete'

  • The candidate's details will get deleted

Please Note: Deletion is an irreversible action, and the information cannot be recovered once deleted. It is important to ensure that you have retrieved all necessary data from the results before proceeding with deleting the candidate details.

Click on the three dots icon and select 'Delete'

To confirm your action click 'Delete' again

Candidate details will be deleted from your workspace

2. Can I reinvite the candidate to the same assessment?

Reinviting candidates to the same assessment is not possible. If a candidate needs to redo a specific part of the assessment or retake the assessment, they will be required to begin the entire assessment again. To initiate this process, you must first delete the candidate's details. Subsequently, you can send them a new assessment invite.

Please Note: When the candidate retakes the assessment, they will encounter the same questions they had previously answered. This factor can potentially impact their results. We suggest that you download the candidate's original results prior to deleting them from the assessment.

3. How can I send the candidate's results?

You can send the results either individually or using the bulk option

Here's how you can do this:

Individually

  • Under the Assessment tab, go to the specific assessment and at the end of the candidate name panel, click on the three dots icon and select 'Send assessment result'

  • The assessment results will be sent out to that candidate.

Bulk

  • Under the Assessment tab, go to the specific assessment and select (check box) the list of candidates for whom you want to send the results (you can select a maximum of 10 candidates from the list)

  • Click on the 'Send Assessment Result' icon (email icon) that appears on the panel just above the candidate details.

  • The assessment results will be sent out to all the selected candidates.

Please Note: Results will be sent only to candidates who have completed the assessment.
