📢 This feature is currently in rollout.

Before getting started

  1. Make sure your team is familiar with the feature. Share our overview article for a quick introduction.
  2. Identify 2-3 jobs to start with where assessments will add the most value. This helps you get familiar with the process before expanding further. If you’re not sure which jobs to start with, consider roles that:
    • Receive a high volume of applications.
    • Have high turnover rates where better hiring could improve retention.
    • Are critical to your organization’s success.

Invite candidates to take the Predictive Talent Assessment

    1. In Meet, go to the job where you want to set a predictive profile.
    2. Jump to the Assessments tab and scroll down to Predictive Talent Assessment.
    3. Select a predictive profile from the dropdown. Start typing the role name or similar common job titles to filter options and find your profile faster.
      💡Tip: The predictive profile name doesn’t need to match the job title exactly. What truly matters is that the behavioral competencies align with the skills needed for the job. Focus on selecting a profile that best represents the role’s key behavioral competencies. See the full list of standardized predictive profiles available.

    4. Review the behavioral competencies included in the profile by clicking View ↗️. Further expand individual behavioral competencies to see detailed descriptions.

    5. Save and click Invite > Predictive Talent Assessment at the top right. 

    6. You’ll be redirected to the Invite page where the job and the assessment type will be pre-populated.
    7. Enter the candidate’s name, email, and phone number if relevant.
      • Add up to 1000 candidates in bulk by uploading a CSV file. To do this, click CSV upload, download the template, fill the columns with the relevant candidates, and re-upload the file.
      • You also have the option to send candidates updates via SMS text messages.

        ⚠️ The CSV and SMS features are not available on some legacy plans.

    8.  Optionally, customize your email invitation.
        • If you have set up default email templates for one-way interview invites in your email template library, they will automatically be used as the default content for your invitations.
        • If you want to edit the email invitation content or choose another template, select Yes under Do you want to modify the email invitation that will be sent to your candidate(s)? Customize the content or choose a new email template by clicking Select Email Template and selecting one from the list.
    9. Set a completion deadline and click Send invites.
