Test integrity features

Each candidate gets a different set of questions from large question pools. Questions appear in a different order for each attempt, and answer options are shuffled. The browser receives one question at a time, and answer keys stay on HireValid’s servers. Timing runs on the server; reloading brings back the same question with only the time left. Candidates cannot go back to earlier questions. Question text cannot be copied or selected, and a blocked copy attempt is recorded in the timeline. HireValid summarizes signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers and answers faster than a question can be read in an Integrity Score with an evidence timeline for the employer to review. It never decides on its own. With candidate consent, the employer can add webcam photos at random moments.

Use the score as evidence

Review the score alongside a relevant work sample and a structured interview. It is one signal for a person to consider, not a decision on its own.

Fairness and accommodations

Questions name tools, panels and menu commands rather than keyboard shortcuts, so they read the same on every supported desktop operating system and do not reward memorized keystrokes. They describe tasks in plain US English with neutral design briefs, avoid features found only in the newest release, and never ask candidates to tell apart colors by sight. Scenarios use names and clients from many backgrounds.

You can give any candidate extra time as an accommodation. Results are evidence for a person to review, never an automatic decision.

Provisional: reliability is reported once 200 candidates have completed it.
