Make a typing test for a job and follow every candidate’s result.
Give the job's title and your company's name as candidates will see them, then pick the test's language and length. Five minutes gives the steadiest result, because one slip matters less over a longer test; one or three minutes suit a quick first screen. A pass mark is optional: set a speed, an accuracy or both, and the results list says who met it. You can leave it empty and judge the list yourself.
Each test gets a short link. Put it in the job advert, or send it to the people on your shortlist by email. The link shows candidates the job, your company, the test's length and language, and what happens to their details, before they start.
Candidates do not need an account. They can practise as often as they like on other words of the same length, which is not sent to you. When they are ready, they give their name and email address and take the test once. Every candidate for the job types the same words, and each attempt is replayed keystroke by keystroke on our server before it reaches your list.
The list shows each candidate's speed in words per minute and accuracy, whether the attempt was checked, and whether it met your pass mark, with the fastest first. Attempts that could not be checked, for example because text was pasted, are marked as such. Download the list as a CSV file to share it with colleagues or keep it with your other hiring notes. When you have enough candidates, close the test so the link stops taking new ones, and delete it when you are done: that deletes the candidates' details too. Details are kept for a year at most either way.
The free plan has one open test at a time with up to 20 candidates; Premium or the coaching centre plan takes as many as you need. More about hiring tests.
