JobSkills:

"An web-based interactive skills testing system"

JobSkills is available to test job vacancy candidates over the Internet. It allows you to ask candidates specific questions on a given subject. The higher a candidate's JobSkills score, the more knowledgeable they are and the most likely that you will want to interview them. It is also an essential part of JobNet and TestNet. It is ideal for testing overseas' candidates.

Questions can be selected from a pre-set batch or can be selected individually. Four different types of questions can be accessed: Multiple Choice, True/False, Priority List and Free Text. Click here to see if we have the tests that you're looking for.

• JobSkills saves you time and money by only interviewing pre-qualified candidates.
• JobSkills gives you greater control over your recruitment process.
• JobSkills helps you to fill your vacancy quicker.
• JobSkills will help defeat fabricated CVs/résumées by validating an applicant's qualifications in defined subject areas.
• Tailor-make your own set of skills questions.

• The employer logs in to jobcircles.co.uk using the Corporate Login.
• The Corporate Main Menu page shows all current job vacancies pertaining to that company and all skills tests collections that are current.
• From the "Go to JobNet" link the scheduler is taken to the JobNet Control Panel. Alternatively, the scheduler can click on the "Go to TestNet" link if an entry on the JobBoard is not required.
• From the Vacancy Management Menu, the employer creates a vacancy using the New Vacancy Wizard and chooses to include JobSkills skills questions. The employer completes the wizard and a dedicated vacancy webpage (URL) is generated. e.g. http://www.jobcircles.co.uk/vacancyapply.aspx?id=1
• The employer places an advert containing the dedicated vacancy webpage address or emails a candidate directly.
• The candidate reads the newspaper ad, job-posting, email or visits the jobcircles.co.uk JobBoard.
• If a TestNet only has been created then the scheduler proceeds with the JobSkills wizard and invites a candidate to take the tests.
• The candidate accesses the dedicated vacancy or skills tests collection webpage.
• The candidate views the vacancy information and decides to continue with the application.
• The candidate completes their personal details and uploads their CV/résumée.
• The candidate is then asked skills questions by JobSkills.
• The scheduler periodically checks the View Vacancy Applicants screen that summarises the candidate's score to the skills questions. The candidate's personal details and CV/résumée can also be viewed from here.
• The employer makes the decision to interview the candidate, or not.
