Adaface Python & Linux Online Test is the most accurate way to shortlist candidates



Reason #1

Tests for on-the-job skills

The Python & Linux Online 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 at the first step of the hiring process.

Non-googleable questions & proctoring features enable you to be comfortable with conducting assessments online. The Python & Linux Online Test is ideal for helping recruiters identify which candidates have the skills to do well on the job.

Reason #2

No trick questions

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.

Dessa är bara ett litet urval från vårt bibliotek med 10 000+ frågor. De faktiska frågorna om detta Python & Linux Test kommer att vara icke-googleable.

The function high_sess should compute the highest number of events per session of each user in the database by reading a comma-separated value input file of session data. The result should be returned from the function as a dictionary. The first column of each line in the input file is expected to contain the user’s name represented as a string. The second column is expected to contain an integer representing the events in a session. Here is an example input file:
Tony,10
Stark,12
Black,25
Your program should ignore a non-conforming line like this one.
Stark,3
Widow,6
Widow,14
The resulting return value for this file should be the following dictionary: { 'Stark':12, 'Black':25, 'Tony':10, 'Widow':14 }

Registration Queue
Logic
Solve
We want to register students for the next semester. All students have a receipt which shows the amount pending for the previous semester. A positive amount (or zero) represents that the student has paid extra fees, and a negative amount represents that they have pending fees to be paid. The students are in a queue for the registration. We want to arrange the students in a way such that the students who have a positive amount on the receipt get registered first as compared to the students who have a negative amount. We are given a queue in the form of an array containing the pending amount.
For example, if the initial queue is [20, 70, -40, 30, -10], then the final queue will be [20, 70, 30, -40, -10]. Note that the sequence of students should not be changed while arranging them unless required to meet the condition.
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The first line of the input is the length of the array. The second line contains all the elements of the array.
- The input is already parsed into an array of "strings" and passed to a function. You will need to convert string to integer/number type inside the function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.

For the example discussed above, the input will be:
5
20 70 -40 30 -10

Your code needs to print the following to the standard output:
20 70 30 -40 -10

Longest Road
logic

Solve
A startup company E-Motors is building driverless automated cars. The car contains a sensor that checks the road quality for the next N meters to decide the optimal speed at which the cars should move. We are given recorded data by the sensor in the form of an array, where each element of the array is the rating given to 1 meter of the road in sequence. 

The rating given by the sensor is from 1 to 100, where 100 represents the road with the best condition, and any rating above 60 is optimal. Find the longest stretch of road in meters that is categorized as optimal by the sensor.

The input is an array of "strings" which needs to be converted from string to integer/number inside the function.

Medium

Visitors Count
Strings
Solve
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. 
Example:

Input:
WWMMWWCCC

Expected Output: 
4W3C2M

Explanation: 
‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. 
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The input is already parsed and passed to a function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.
- If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’.
- If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Python & Linux 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 Python & Linux 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 #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.

Anställningscheferna ansåg att de genom de tekniska frågor som de ställde under panelintervjuerna kunde berätta vilka kandidater som hade bättre poäng och differentierade med dem som inte gjorde så bra. Dom är mycket nöjd med kvaliteten på kandidater som är kortlistade med AdaFace -screening.

Vanliga frågor

Kan jag kombinera flera färdigheter till en anpassad bedömning?

Ja absolut. Anpassade bedömningar ställs in baserat på din arbetsbeskrivning och kommer att innehålla frågor om alla måste-ha färdigheter du anger.

Har du några anti-cheating eller proctoring-funktioner på plats?

Vi har följande anti-cheating-funktioner på plats:

  • Icke-Googleable-frågor
  • IP -proctoring
  • webbproctoring
  • webbkamera proctoring
  • Detektion av plagiering
  • säker webbläsare

Läs mer om proctoring -funktionerna.

Hur tolkar jag testresultat?

Det främsta att tänka på är att en bedömning är ett eliminationsverktyg, inte ett urvalsverktyg. En kompetensbedömning är optimerad för att hjälpa dig att eliminera kandidater som inte är tekniskt kvalificerade för rollen, den är inte optimerad för att hjälpa dig hitta den bästa kandidaten för rollen. Så det ideala sättet att använda en bedömning är att bestämma en tröskelpoäng (vanligtvis 55%, vi hjälper dig att jämföra) och bjuda in alla kandidater som gör poäng över tröskeln för nästa intervjurundor.

Vilken erfarenhetsnivå kan jag använda detta test för?

Varje AdaFace -bedömning anpassas till din arbetsbeskrivning/ idealisk kandidatperson (våra ämnesexperter kommer att välja rätt frågor för din bedömning från vårt bibliotek med 10000+ frågor). Denna bedömning kan anpassas för alla erfarenhetsnivåer.

Får varje kandidat samma frågor?

Ja, det gör det mycket lättare för dig att jämföra kandidater. Alternativ för MCQ -frågor och ordningen på frågor randomiseras. Vi har anti-cheating/proctoring -funktioner på plats. I vår företagsplan har vi också möjlighet att skapa flera versioner av samma bedömning med frågor om liknande svårighetsnivåer.

Jag är kandidat. Kan jag prova ett träningstest?

Nej. Tyvärr stöder vi inte övningstester just nu. Du kan dock använda våra exempelfrågor för övning.

Vad är kostnaden för att använda detta test?

Du kan kolla in våra prisplaner.

Kan jag få en gratis provperiod?

Plattformen är helt självbetjänande, så här är ett sätt att gå vidare:

  • Du kan registrera dig gratis för att få en känsla för hur det fungerar.
  • Den kostnadsfria provperioden inkluderar en provbedömning (Java/JavaScript) som du hittar i din instrumentpanel när du registrerar dig. Du kan använda den för att granska kvaliteten på frågorna och kandidaternas upplevelse av ett konversationstest på Adaface.
  • För att granska kvaliteten på frågorna kan du också granska våra offentliga frågor för 50+ färdigheter här.
  • När du är övertygad om att du vill testa det med riktiga bedömningar och kandidater kan du välja en plan enligt dina krav.

Jag flyttade precis till en betald plan. Hur kan jag begära en anpassad bedömning?
