How online testing works
- Choose the tests that make sense for the role.

Tests inside your hiring process
In Kapek, tests do not live in a separate tool. The AI fit report compares results with the role and sits next to everything else you know about the candidate: the first-round interview, the match score, and evidence cited from the CV.
You see what the candidate said, what their CV shows, and how they did on the tests in one place, before you decide who to advance.
Which roles each test fits
Reasoning and situational judgement tests are useful for office, sales, customer-facing, and supervisory roles. Personality and work style help you prepare better questions for the final interview. Integrity and reliability tests are often used for roles that handle cash, inventory, or sensitive information.
Using psychometric tests responsibly
- Tests support the recruiter’s judgement; they are not the hiring decision.
- Pick tests related to the job and tell candidates how results are used.
- Candidates must consent before starting; Kapek asks for consent on every test.
- Review results together with the interview and references, not in isolation.
Frequently asked questions
What are psychometric tests in recruiting?
They are standardized assessments that measure things like personality, reasoning, work style, or judgement in work situations. In recruiting they complement the interview and CV with information you can compare across candidates.
Can candidates take the tests online?
Yes. They receive an invitation by email, WhatsApp, or link, give consent, and complete the test online in English or Spanish.
Do the tests decide who gets hired?
No. Results and the AI fit report support your team’s judgement. Hiring decisions are always made by people.
How does the situational judgement test work?
AI writes questions for the specific job, based on situations the candidate could face in that role. It takes about 10 minutes.
Are tests included in every plan?
