The Essay test is a fast, easy way to confirm whether a candidate can organize and communicate ideas through writing. The test asks candidates to respond to an essay question, selected at random from our bank of essay questions. Candidates are assessed on their grammar, structure and content.

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

Note that while the Essay 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 a candidate. 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.
