An assessment is a single stage for an application as it moves through the vacancy selection process.
An assessment stage is created when:
- A user selects Assess against an application on the Applications tab of the Vacancy page and saves their entry.
-
An application reaches a stage with one of the following:
- Auto create is checked.
- A form is set.
- An assessment test is set.
- A stage start email is set.
- Auto queue is checked.
An assessment stage can optionally trigger the following events and actions:
- A Task created for the user set as the Assessor for the stage.
- A Form sent to the applicant.
- An External Test for the applicant.
- An email sent to the applicant.
- Emails to be sent to the referees.
- Setting the Application to Onboarding or Hired.
- Adding to an Assessment Queue.
- Requesting a candidate to book into an Assessment Event.
The assessment is scored against each selection criteria linked to that stage.
The overall score for an assessment is the sum of the scores for all the criteria. A weighted score is also calculated as the sum of the scores multiplied by the weighting for each criteria.
Assessments that are not sub-stages are also assigned an outcome. This can be:
- Proceed to Next Stage
- On Hold
- Not This Vacancy
- Reject
- Withdrew
