MS Word 2010

The Word 2010 skills test is a fast, easy way to confirm whether a candidate has an understanding of concepts underlying Microsoft Word 2010. The test asks questions from a bank of questions for testing security purposes. HR Avatar periodically adds new questions to this bank to prevent cheating.

This test is fully mobile ready and operates on most modern mobile devices.

Specific topics that are covered within the test include:

• Capabilities of MS Word
• Collaborating with others
• Entering comments
• Finding and replacing content
• Formatting paragraphs, captions, and notes
• Formatting text
• Modifying document layout and structure
• Protecting and restricting files
• Reviewing documents
• Viewing document content
• Word-Processing Concepts
• Working with files

The test consists of both text-based multiple choice and simulation-based performance questions, where the candidate is asked to perform tasks on a simulated MS Word 2010 interface.

Note that while the MS Word 2010 skills assessment is a useful and efficient instrument for confirming a base level of skill or knowledge about this important topic, it is not intended to pinpoint the exact level of candidate or skill. We recommend that skills tests, like this one, be used in parallel with other measurements, such as cognitive ability, job fit, and behavioral history. Each different type of test provides a valuable piece of information you can use when evaluating potential job performance.
