Judgment with campaign results
Small results tables let you review how candidates interpret performance figures and choose a next step.
Audience choices for business buyers

Test integrity signals

Each candidate gets a different set of questions from large pools. Questions appear one at a time, in a different order for each attempt, and answer options are shuffled. Answer keys stay on HireValid’s servers. The 10-minute timer 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 records signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers, and answers faster than a question can be read. These are summarized in an Integrity Score and evidence timeline for employer review, never as an automatic decision. Webcam photos may be added at random moments with the candidate’s consent.

Use the score as one signal

Review the score as evidence to consider, not as a decision on its own. Pair it with a job-relevant work sample, such as asking the candidate to explain how they would match a campaign to a goal, select a professional audience, or respond to figures in a results table. Then use the same structured interview questions for each candidate and weigh the evidence against the role’s needs.

Understand scoring and benchmarks

Fairness and accommodations

Questions describe made-up companies from many industries and regions, with names from many backgrounds. Amounts are plain numbers with no currency symbol, and figures are rounded so the math stays light; a calculator and scratch paper are offered to every candidate. Questions ask about decisions and well-established platform behavior rather than menu paths, exact on-screen wording or recently changed features, so recent hands-on access to an ad account is not required to answer them.

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.

Questions use made-up companies from many industries and regions, with names from many backgrounds.

What does the LinkedIn Advertising practice set include?+

The practice set has four questions and a three-minute time limit, ahead of the 15 timed questions in 10 minutes. It lets candidates get used to the single-answer and select-all formats, with questions in a similar style to the test, before the scored questions start.
