We are a small boutique law firm in Ontario and have relied on the results of this tool for support staff screening for more than 8 years. I personally designed the tests using the preset modules and based on the skills we require in support staff such as working knowledge of Microsoft Office, attention to detail, logical thinking, problem solving, client service etc. These are generic, not related to legal knowledge, skills and allow to get a good baseline for individuals that we select for interviews in person. I love the fact that we have flexibility in setting up our own customized test. It is very user friendly but I did use support initially and had a great experience. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Ease of use Customization and flexibility in changing tests Verity of topics, software and skills covered Customer service and support #### Cons Expiring credits when not used and continuous follow up with customer support to extend credits. The reality of the small organizations is that we go through hiring process infrequently but deal with a lot of applicants at the time which makes it difficult to predict what package to buy. Then we may still have to fill positions for leaves from time to time which is not very predictable either so having these credits on the account without having to "use them up" would be very helpful. Having said this, each time these are discussed with me and left on our account so no loss so far in the years that I've used eSkill, but some loss of time there for both, eSkill and ourselves that could be avoided. --- ### Eskill allows us to reduce the influence of human biases in recruitment as much as possible - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mohammed Majeed D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used other for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Prior to eSkill, our recruitment processes were very labor intensive with in-person aptitude tests that would take forever to complete scoring and grading. And it was very common to see wide ranging assessment results of the same candidates by different panel members. Eskill has allowed us to cut down recruitment times from a month to under 5 days by making the entire system so efficient and cost-effective. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Setting questions for candidates during recruitment campaigns is one of tasks I dislike the most. I either feel like the range of subjects covered is too narrow or too broad to adequately inform us on the suitability of candidates for roles. Eskill's extensive library of easily adaptable standard tests allows me to quickly sort through pre-set questions to compile a balanced assortment of probes to assess candidates. #### Cons Beyond hiring, it would be great if Eskill also had an up-to-date database of information on remuneration rates or salary cap suggestions compiled by region to help inform organizations from the get-go on what it would take to attract the best talents for a given role. This would really complete the cycle of services. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill Eskill came highly recommended by the HR department of our sister organization. --- ### A Good Resource for Pre-Employment Testing - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Kerri M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We were looking at ways to better evaluate our candidates prior to hiring - with a more level playing field. Resumes and interviews are good, but they don't always display the thought process that the employee uses. Using eSkill in conjunction with personality assessments gave us a more clear picture to allow us to make better hiring decisions. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros I was the administrator for this product at a former company. I inherited eSkill from my predecessor, but was able to easily change and create new content. We primarily used eSkill for pre-employment testing for candidates. In addition to some pre-packaged questions in a variety of categories, we were also able to add custom content more relevant to our specific company and industry. #### Cons Some of our managers complained about not receiving the email scores for their candidates. Instead of having "seats" or "licenses" for each user, there was a master administrator who created and sent the assessments to candidates. The results were placed in the portal, but there was an option to also email them to the hiring managers. That function did not always work well. --- ### We are so happy with eSkill - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Katie M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The thing we like most about eSkill is the ability to send multiple subjects within the same test. The software we were using previously had a 40 question test per subject. It would take our applicants forever to complete their testing. Now everything we need can be fit into one test. #### Cons At this time there isn't anything that we don't like about the software. Everything works well for us. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill Ultimately we liked the ease of use with this product. It is easy to set up and sent tests. The Customer Service team is always reaching out to see how they can help and better improve our experience. They are also very quick to respond anytime we have a question. #### Reasons for switching to eSkill We were having a lot of problems when our applicants were trying to take the tests. There were a lot of system requirements and constant updates people would have to do just to be able to take their tests. --- ### Solid skills assessment platform, promised ATS integration is limited - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Sheena S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Staffing and Recruiting - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: March 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Our experience with the sales and customer success team has been generally attentive and prompt and they have provided satisfactory answers to our issues/questions. However, if you use Bullhorn as an ATS, this integration took a couple of months (and A LOT of back and forth on my part) to get set up correctly. Hopefully eSkill will use our experience to improve the onboarding process, but it was a fairly big headache, considering the integration has drawbacks and is not quite what we expected it to be. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros We like the ability to easily and quickly create custom assessments. The subject categories are fairly easy to navigate and we appreciate the ability to sort/filter but question difficult and type. Sending assessments is also a very easy process and looking up, forwarding, and downloading assessment results is also easy and quick. #### Cons We were disappointed that several features that were presented to us in the demos ended up being add-on features: custom branding on assessments (which we purchased), the ability to create custom multiple-choice questions (which we did not purchase), and the ability to manage users (which we did not purchase). We would also like to be able to combine assessments in groups/batches, instead of having to combine them as one test. Our previous assessment platform had this ability to group assessments for quicker send out and we miss this feature. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill Price, functionality, sales process #### Reasons for switching to eSkill IBM discontinued the skills assessment platform. --- ### Great value product for a technical assessment tool. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Justin W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: March 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The customer support has been outstanding. They are always very quick to respond and engage. The assessment tool is user friendly and easy to send to people and easily review the results. There are a few things that I wish we could tweak within the system but unfortunately there is only so much they can do to customize. All in all it is a great product for the price and helps us assess our new hires prior to screening them. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This software helps us see how good someone is at multi-tasking, typing on a QWERTY keyboard, and their level of customer service. It is perfect for us to assess our Patient Access Representatives. #### Cons There have been certain minor issues within the software that unfortunately when we have reached out to customer support to fix or adjust, their response is "that is something that is built in to the interface and can't be adjusted." There are some things that just are not customizable for the individual client. However, they have tons of libraries worth of assessments that you can use to try and make it your own. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill Cost vs. software capability #### Reasons for switching to eSkill Predictive Index was a great tool for our support roles and management roles but not so great for our Patient Access Representatives which really requires more of a technical based assessment tool vs. a behavioral and cognitive tool. --- ### Great assessment platform! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Joanna K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Broadcast Media - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: February 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I have had an overwhelmingly positive experience with this company! The sales rep I first connected with did an excellent job, the platform and possibilities really speak for themselves and their customer success manager assigned to my account is helpful! I really recommend this company if you are in need of a candidate assessment tool to implement in your hiring process. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Eskill has an excellent question library! They had everything from high profile job titles to Windows 97 questions and simulations. Also, they have top notch customer service! #### Cons I do wish that there were more options for simulations, they have some great ones I have found to be useful but I really love being able to see how a candidate would perform on the job by using a simulation. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill The price was the deciding factor, plus Eskill has great and helpful customer service reps so I knew I would be in good hands going with them. --- ### eSkill Applicant Testing - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Emily B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: March 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very positive. Excellent feedback from applicants. Very pleased with reporting options. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Very user friendly. Excellent bank of tests. Detailed reporting. We have been very pleased with the customer support with eSkill. #### Cons We have been using eSkill the past few months and have no issues at this point. We have been very pleased with the software and ease of use. #### Reasons for choosing eSkill Everything felt easy with eSkill. Excellent recommendation from another local organization. I liked that the sales rep was not pushy and listened for our needs. #### Reasons for switching to eSkill IBM was discontinuing their testing platform. We did not like that testers could not move back in their tests to view their entries, and that shortcuts were not allowed (Microsoft testing). --- ### Integral to our Training, Recruitment - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Darin C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros This product was originally sourced to provide us with vital intelligence regarding potential applicants’ computer skills. Now, we use it for all recruitment and much of our training. We are able to establish a baseline, identify training needs, and assess comprehension. #### Cons The software has a great set of included assessments, but there are occasionally industry-specific items I would like to see included in the standard offering. --- ### Skill testing made easy! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kathleen M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Professional Training & Coaching - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We needed a way to measure skill without being in-person with both candidates and employees. The test/assessment results factor into hiring decisions, placement into the right job/role and professional development & training plans. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros eSkill allows us to simply and consistently measure skills. We can design training and development plans that include concrete information from the results. #### Cons We have to send the participants to the eSkill site; we do not have it integrated into our own. We would love to see more categories for measuring business/real estate administrative skills. #### Vendor response Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We will certainly send your requests to our Content Development Team. Our testing system does have an open API so we can integrate with most platforms. Your Client Success Manager will be able to provide you with a statement of work to be able to integrate.
