How Talent-Ray protects test results

Candidates take Talent-Ray tests in their own browser, on their own device. These are the measures in place today. They make cheating harder and flag sessions for HR to review. They are not a guarantee, and they never decide about a candidate on their own.

What is in place during a test

  • Camera on, checked before the start

    The camera is on for every browser test. Before the test begins, the candidate goes through a camera check.

  • Full screen, or Test Mode on a phone

    Written tests run in full screen. On a phone, the candidate starts the test with “Enter Test Mode”.

  • Question text cannot be copied

    Question text cannot be copied, and the test page is closed to browser translation.

  • Pasting is blocked

    Pasting, drag-and-drop, autofill and accepting AI-assistant suggestions are blocked. An attempt counts as a warning.

  • Camera image check

    The camera image is checked for a second face, no face or a phone. A finding is logged with a snapshot. It does not interrupt the candidate and does not count as a warning.

  • Different questions from a question pool

    When a test uses a question pool, each candidate gets different questions from it. Without a pool, every candidate sees the same questions.

  • Answer authenticity check, in AI-led spoken interviews only

    AI-led spoken interview tests include an answer authenticity check. Written tests do not have it. The check never changes the score.

When a rule is broken

Leaving the test, or trying to paste, counts as a warning.

  1. 1/3

    First warning

    The warning is recorded and the test goes on.

  2. 2/3

    Second warning

    The warning is recorded and the test goes on.

  3. 3/3

    Third warning

    The test is submitted automatically and marked “ended due to a rule violation”.

What these measures can and cannot do

  • No browser-based test is fully cheat-proof. Someone with enough technical skill can still get around these measures.
  • What they do is make cheating harder and flag sessions for HR to review. A warning or a flag never rejects or scores a candidate by itself: the decision stays with your team.
  • If a test needs full control, hold it on a computer you provide, in a room you supervise.
