Test conditions and integrity signals

Each candidate receives a different set of questions from large pools. Questions appear in a different order on 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 restores the same question with only the remaining time. Candidates cannot go back to earlier questions. Text cannot be copied or selected, and a blocked copy attempt is recorded. HireValid summarizes signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers and unusually fast answers in an Integrity Score with an evidence timeline for employer review. It never decides on its own. See how we build our tests.

Use the score as evidence

Review the score alongside a relevant work sample and a structured interview. It is evidence for a person to consider, not a pass mark or a hiring decision. Discuss how the candidate weighed the facts, figures and limits in a case. For guidance on combining assessments in hiring, read our pre-employment testing guide. You can also compare this assessment with Change Management for a related view of workplace decisions.

Understand scoring and benchmarks

Fairness and accommodations

Every case states the facts, figures and limits it turns on, so no industry specialty, country's law or tax rules, or named framework is needed. Money appears as plain numbers with no currency, any comparison can be made in the head, and the four courses of action in each case are alike in length and tone. Names and settings come from many backgrounds, with no person drawn from a stereotype.

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

Provisional: there are no norms yet, and reliability is reported once 200 candidates have completed it.
