AI Skills Assessment: a pre-employment skills test built from your job description

A skills test is a short, timed set of 10–20 multiple-choice questions that Talents AI writes from your job description and scores the moment the candidate submits. You get a total score, a band and a score per skill on the candidate card, so you know who has the basics before anyone spends time on a call. It costs 2 credits per candidate.

  • 10–20 questions written from your JD
  • Scored on submit, with a score per skill
  • Links by email or WhatsApp, no login
  • 2 credits per candidate

Features

What AI Skills Assessment does.

A timed skills test written from your job description and scored on submit.

  • Questions from your JDTalents AI writes 10–20 multiple-choice questions once per requirement, each with four options and a skill tag, so every candidate for the role answers the same test.
  • Scored the moment they submitAnswers are marked against a fixed key: a total, a percentage, a band (strong, good, fair or weak) and a score per skill.
  • On the candidate’s phoneEach candidate gets a link by email or WhatsApp, valid for 7 days and extendable. There is no login, and the timer starts only when they press start.
  • Results in the Advanced ATSThe result lands on the candidate card, the candidate moves to Screened, and the recruiter who sent the test gets a notification and an email.
  • Every answer visibleOpen any question to see the candidate’s answer and whether it was correct, so a reviewer can check the score.
  • No double chargesA candidate with an open test for the role is never sent or charged a second one, and an unopened link can be cancelled for its credits back.

How it works

AI Skills Assessment, in detail

How the skills test works

Select candidates on a requirement in the Advanced ATS, or ask the Talents AI chat, and choose Skills test. The test is written once per requirement, so every candidate for that role answers the same questions.

  • Input: the job description from your AI Hiring Blueprint, or your own
  • Talents AI writes 10–20 questions, each with four options and a skill tag
  • Each candidate gets a link by email or WhatsApp, valid for 7 days and extendable
  • The candidate gives consent, presses start and the timer begins
  • On submit the test is scored, and the result goes to your recruiters, not the candidate

What you see in the result

Each result shows the score, the percentage, a band (strong, good, fair or weak), the score per skill and a short summary. You can also open every question to see the candidate’s answer and whether it was correct.

The candidate moves to Screened automatically, with a note such as “Skills test completed: 70% (good)”. The recruiter who sent the test gets a notification and an email when the result is ready.

Where it fits in the AI Hiring Suite

The AI Skills Assessment usually comes first, straight after the AI Hiring Blueprint and before the AI Tech Assessment, AI Voice Interview and AI Final Video Interview. Any combination works, for example a skills test followed by an AI voice interview for the top scorers.

As an online skills assessment for teams hiring across India, it is the low-cost filter: candidates take it on their own phone with no login, and only those who show the basics move on to the steps that cost more.

Credits and cost

AI Skills Assessment is ₹399 per user a month, or ₹3,830 a year with annual billing (20% off), and it is part of the AI Hiring Suite. Each test uses 2 credits, charged when the link is sent: on the 1,500-credit pack (₹2,499), about ₹3.33 per candidate before GST. Cancel a link the candidate never opened and the credits come back.

The 15-day free trial comes with 90 credits to spend on tests and the other AI steps (2 credits per test). A candidate who already has an open test for the role is never sent or charged a second one.

Fairness and human control

Every candidate for a role gets the same questions, timed the same way and marked against the same answer key, so results are comparable. There is no judgement call in the marking itself.

A score is evidence, not a decision. Nothing is rejected automatically: your recruiters read the per-skill picture and decide who moves on. A candidate who scores low on one skill may still suit a role where you can train it.

When to use a pre-employment skills test

Use it early, when you have more applicants than you can call. Typical skill areas by role:

  • Customer support: written English, ticket handling, empathy and support tools
  • Sales: product knowledge, objection handling and basic numbers
  • Accountants: GST basics, reconciliations and Excel
  • Software developers: language and framework fundamentals
  • Operations: process steps, scheduling and data accuracy

FAQ

AI Skills Assessment: common questions

  • It depends on the number of questions, which is between 10 and 20; a 15-question test usually fits in about 15 minutes. The timer starts only when the candidate presses start, and the test is submitted automatically after time runs out.

  • Yes. Candidates open the link from email or WhatsApp on a phone or laptop, with no login. They can change an answer until they submit, and the link stays valid for 7 days unless you extend it.

  • Multiple-choice answers are marked against a fixed answer key, so the marking is exact and the same for everyone. What the test measures depends on the job description, so a clear, focused JD gives more useful results. Read scores alongside the CV and later interviews.

  • Consent is recorded before the test starts, the link cannot be reused after submission, and results are visible only to people with ATS access in your Million Talents AI workspace. Each workspace’s data is kept separate.

  • It runs inside the Million Talents AI Advanced ATS. If your candidates are elsewhere, add them one CV at a time, or by bulk CV or CSV upload on a paid subscription; scores then land on each candidate card.
