"It's like connecting your job candidates to a lie detector!"

Before you commit to hiring a new employee, you need to know that they can deliver the skills they’ve promised. Moreover, you need to know exactly what level of skill and competence you’re acquiring to gauge how quickly they may be able to jump into using applications such as Excel. You also need to find out how much additional training they’re likely to need.

Total Testing can help!  Our easy to use, simulation of Excel gives our clients the most reliable indication of a candidate’s knowledge of Excel.  Tests take less than 30 minutes, have been validated and score reports are immediately emailed to you.  Read on for more details….

Boost Your 'Hiring Decision' Confidence

Total Testing’s Microsoft Office assessments accurately validate each potential hire’s “real-world” skills, so you can reliably predict if they’re the right person for the job.

What makes us different is our assessments utilize interactive simulations that replicate the look and functionality of actual MS Office applications. So, instead of having to rely on the outdated “multiple choice questions” testing model, our cutting-edge, real-life simulations make it possible for you to evaluate a candidate’s knowledge, PLUS their ability to complete the types of on-the-job tasks you’ll need them to do!

Since our unique approach measures their ability to actually use the application, rather than just picking an answer from a list, there’s no way for them to “study-up” or bluff their way through…They have to prove they’ve got the skills to do the job!

Our technology empowers you to make confident hiring decisions based on cold-hard-facts!

Sample Score Report

Our MS Office tests can help you identify each candidate’s skill level reliably and efficiently. With our host of simulation tests, the candidate must perform specific tasks to answer each question. When you receive the score report, you’ll gain clear, easy-to-understand insight into the candidate’s strengths and weaknesses in order to make the best hiring decision.

Excel- Why you should use this test

Pre-employment interview testing will give you the tools you need to make hiring decisions with the utmost confidence. All the applicants you’re considering should receive the relevant Excel test to ensure you’re giving candidates the opportunity to demonstrate their skills equally.

After candidates take the test, you’ll receive a compiled report containing a breakdown of each candidate’s score, including a general overview of how successful they were with a percentile ranking compared to all test takers. The report will also include individual scoring for each specific skill they were tested on, which will allow you to learn exactly which skills are a weakness or strength for the candidate and where they could benefit from further training if hired.

Total Testing can help

How many times have you, as an employer or hiring manager, seen “Excel skills” listed on a candidate’s resume? And how many times has that claim turned out to be — well, a slight exaggeration?

Training is expensive, and making a poor hiring choice is costlier still. Before you commit to hiring a new employee, you need to know that they can deliver the skills they’ve promised on paper. Moreover, you need to know exactly what level of skill and competence you’re acquiring to gauge how quickly they may be able to jump into using applications such as Excel. You also need to find out how much additional training they’re likely to need.
