Note that all players have equal ability, and the team needs to have atleast 2 male players. While selecting the team we need to keep in mind that all 4 players should be able to play with each other. We also need to keep the following restrictions in mind: - R cannot play with Y - S cannot play with W - T cannot play with Z Which of the following are true: A: S and Z cannot be in the team together. B: T and Y cannot be in the team together. C: T and X cannot be in the team together.
Medium CID Agent Coding Decoding	Solve
A code ("EIG AUC REO RAI COG") was sent to the criminal office by a CID agent named Batra. However, four of the five words are fake, with only one containing the information.

Medium Positive correlation	Solve
Myra is working on her thesis for which she created a scatter plot of the number of teachers and the number of college graduates for cities in Australia. She noticed a positive correlation. Which of these do you think is the probable explanation for this correlation? A: Teachers encourage people to go to college, so an increase in the number of teachers leads to an increase in the number of college graduates. B: Some college graduates choose teaching as a profession after graduating, so an increase in the number of college graduates also leads to an increase in the number of teachers. C: There are more college graduates and teachers in higher income cities, so income is a confounding variable here, make it difficult to prove causation between number of teachers and number of college graduates. D: Cities with a higher population have more teachers and more college graduates, so the correlation is due to a third variable (population of city). E: The provided data is insufficient, so it is extremely difficult to establish the reason for the correlation. F: Most college students choose non-teaching professions after graduating, which explains the correlation. G: In Australia, college students are encouraged by their teachers to choose teaching as a profession after graduating.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Problem Solving 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 Problem Solving 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.

Reason #9

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Puedo combinar múltiples habilidades en una evaluación personalizada?

Si, absolutamente. Las evaluaciones personalizadas se configuran en función de la descripción de su trabajo e incluirán preguntas sobre todas las habilidades imprescindibles que especifique.

¿Tiene alguna característica anti-trato o procuración en su lugar?

Tenemos las siguientes características anti-trate en su lugar:

Preguntas no postradas
Procuración de IP

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.
