9 reasons why

Adaface IBM DB2 Database Online Test is the most accurate way to shortlist Database admins

Reason #1

Tests for on-the-job skills

The IBM DB2 Test helps recruiters and hiring managers identify qualified candidates from a pool of resumes, and helps in taking objective hiring decisions. It reduces the administrative overhead of interviewing too many candidates and saves time by filtering out unqualified candidates.

The Adaface IBM DB2 Online Test screens candidates for the typical skills recruiters look for IBM DB2 Database Administrator roles:

Experience with IBM DB2, DB2 HADR, DB2 Tools install, configure, and upgrade
Experience in support, designing, troubleshooting of above technology
Ability to articulate best practices during implementation
Experience in risk-based systems running on UNIX / LINUX platforms along with OS clustering, partitioning and virtualization
Experience in handling day-to-day Operation, Alert, Incident support, Migration and break-fix support

The insights generated from this assessment can be used by recruiters and hiring managers to identify the best candidates for IBM DB2 Database Administrator roles. Anti-cheating features enable you to be comfortable with conducting assessments online. The IBM DB2 Online Test is ideal for helping recruiters identify which candidates have the skills to do well on the job.

Reason #2

No trick questions

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 ->

Reason #3

Non-googleable questions

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.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment IBM DB2 Database 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.

Reason #6

1 click candidate invites

Email invites: You can send candidates an email invite to the IBM DB2 Database 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.

Reason #7

Detailed scorecards & comparative results

Reason #8

High completion rate

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.

About IBM DB2 Database Administrator Roles

Db2 is an IBM data management product family that includes database servers. They initially supported the relational paradigm, but were later expanded to accommodate object–relational characteristics as well as non-relational formats such as JSON and XML.

A Db2 Administrator handles intermediate to advanced database design and implementation, operation and recovery, security and auditing, performance, and installation and migration/upgrades for the z/OS operating system.

Typical IBM DB2 Database Administrator responsibilities include:

Proactively providing fatabase structure, usability and performance improvements
Reviewing query performance reports such as SQL Server Access Plans for inefficiencies and performance issues
Analyzing database activity
Providing updated SQL queries or indices to improve performance
Working with Data Architects and physical DBAs
Improving database performance
Providing consultation and advice on new queries and stored procedures

Preguntas frecuentes

Tenemos las siguientes características anti-trate en su lugar:

Lea más sobre las funciones de procuración.

¿Cómo interpreto los puntajes de las pruebas?

Lo principal a tener en cuenta es que una evaluación es una herramienta de eliminación, no una herramienta de selección. Una evaluación de habilidades está optimizada para ayudarlo a eliminar a los candidatos que no están técnicamente calificados para el rol, no está optimizado para ayudarlo a encontrar el mejor candidato para el papel. Por lo tanto, la forma ideal de usar una evaluación es decidir un puntaje umbral (generalmente del 55%, lo ayudamos a comparar) e invitar a todos los candidatos que obtienen un puntaje por encima del umbral para las próximas rondas de la entrevista.

¿Para qué nivel de experiencia puedo usar esta prueba?

Cada evaluación de AdaFace está personalizada para su descripción de trabajo/ persona candidata ideal (nuestros expertos en la materia elegirán las preguntas correctas para su evaluación de nuestra biblioteca de más de 10000 preguntas). Esta evaluación se puede personalizar para cualquier nivel de experiencia.

¿Cada candidato tiene las mismas preguntas?

Sí, te hace mucho más fácil comparar los candidatos. Las opciones para las preguntas de MCQ y el orden de las preguntas son aleatorizados. Tenemos características anti-trato/procuración en su lugar. En nuestro plan empresarial, también tenemos la opción de crear múltiples versiones de la misma evaluación con cuestiones de niveles de dificultad similares.
