Test delivery and review signals

Each candidate receives a different question set drawn from large question pools. Questions appear in a different order on each attempt, and answer options are shuffled. The browser receives one question at a time; answer keys stay on HireValid’s servers. The 10-minute clock runs on the server, and reloading returns the same question with only the time left. Candidates cannot copy or select question text; a blocked copy attempt is recorded in the timeline. HireValid records signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers, and answers faster than a question can be read. These appear in an Integrity Score and evidence timeline for employer review; it never decides on its own. With candidate consent, employers can add random webcam photos.

Use the score as one source of evidence

Review the Financial Management test score alongside a work sample and a structured interview. For example, ask the candidate to work through a cash planning or project choice scenario, then compare their reasoning with the test evidence. Use follow-up questions to understand how they handle funding costs and forecast variances. The score should support a person’s review, not decide whom to hire.
