The Content Strategy Test serves as a highly effective 40-minute screening tool for recruiters. With the increasing emphasis on content in today's digital world, the ability to strategize and manage content effectively is a sought-after skill. This test, conducted in a compact 40-minute format, allows recruiters to efficiently assess a candidate's proficiency in content strategy.
The test simulates real-world scenarios where content strategists often have to make quick, yet impactful decisions. As the candidates navigate through the questions within this time frame, their ability to think quickly, prioritize, and apply their knowledge under pressure is evaluated. This not only measures their theoretical understanding of the subject but also their practical application skills.
Moreover, the 40-minute time limit ensures that the screening process is swift and efficient, respecting both the recruiter's and candidate's time. It enables recruiters to quickly identify and shortlist candidates who demonstrate a strong understanding and expertise in content strategy. This leads to a more streamlined and effective recruitment process, allowing organizations to find the right talent for their content strategy needs within a short time frame. Thus, the Content Strategy Test, with its focused and timely approach, makes for a highly efficient and practical screening tool in the recruitment process.
Traditional assessment tools use trick questions and puzzles for the screening, which creates a lot of frustration among candidates about having to go through irrelevant screening assessments.
The main reason we started Adaface is that traditional pre-employment assessment platforms are not a fair way for companies to evaluate candidates. At Adaface, our mission is to help companies find great candidates by assessing on-the-job skills required for a role.
Why we started Adaface ->We have a very high focus on the quality of questions that test for on-the-job skills. Every question is non-googleable and we have a very high bar for the level of subject matter experts we onboard to create these questions. We have crawlers to check if any of the questions are leaked online. If/ when a question gets leaked, we get an alert. We change the question for you & let you know.
These are just a small sample from our library of 10,000+ questions. The actual questions on this Content Strategy Test will be non-googleable.

With Adaface, we were able to optimise our initial screening process by upwards of 75%, freeing up precious time for both hiring managers and our talent acquisition team alike!

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Content Strategy Test in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.
Email invites: You can send candidates an email invite to the Content Strategy Test from your dashboard by entering their email address.
Public link: You can create a public link for each test that you can share with candidates.
API or integrations: You can invite candidates directly from your ATS by using our pre-built integrations with popular ATS systems or building a custom integration with your in-house ATS.
Adaface tests are conversational, low-stress, and take just 25-40 mins to complete.
This is why Adaface has the highest test-completion rate (86%), which is more than 2x better than traditional assessments.

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.
Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.
Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place.
