Don’t Underestimate the Dunning-Kruger Effect!
Candidates tend to assert that they possess skills well above their actual level. This is the Dunning-Kruger effect, a cognitive bias that translates into over-confidence. This discrepancy between perception and reality is often cited by recruiters.
With Zmartests, you get an accurate picture of your job applicants’ talents, so that your human resources become human assets. You’ll be able to know objectively the real level of your candidates (beginner, intermediate, advanced, expert) and in which percentile their Microsoft Word skills lie.
Microsoft Word Tests Inspired by Real Business Problems
Proficiency in Microsoft Word is an important asset for team productivity. But skills tests based on multiple-choice questions (MCQs) don’t adequately measure an individual’s ability to perform a task.
The Zmartests solution is unique with its immersive tests featuring practical cases inspired by real-life business situations. The tests are carried out on Word software, and your candidates have access to all the functions needed to solve the exercises. Our correction algorithms will then evaluate the answer and award a score, which may vary according to the method used to complete the exercise.
Let your candidates show you what they can do.
