The Importance of a
Positive Candidate Experience

Candidate experience is a critical part of the hiring process, and it can be especially challenging to create a consistent, inclusive, and positive candidate experience.

A negative candidate experience can have a significant impact on a candidate pipeline. According to a report from Glassdoor, lengthy hiring delays, repetitive interviews, and frustrating recruitment processes paint organizations with a negative candidate reception, potentially turning off prospective candidates.

HighMatch’s solutions are designed to be intuitive, efficient, inclusive, and positive to boost candidate engagement and encourage a positive candidate relationship.

Mobile-First Assessments

Our assessments are built mobile-first and adapted for desktop. Candidates can complete tests from anywhere there is internet access with no loss of test quality or accuracy.

Having the choice between testing on a desktop computer or a mobile device means our assessments are accessible to a much broader pool of candidates.

Here at HighMatch, we prioritize equal access opportunities for all candidates.

Assessments Validated by Science

GET MORE ANSWERS BY ASKING Fewer QUESTIONS

It’s always nice to know more, but that often comes at the expense of completion rate when it comes to assessments.

ADA and WCAG-2 Compliance

ENSURE YOUR ASSESSMENTS ARE INCLUSIVE

Ensuring your assessments are inclusive and welcoming to traditionally marginalized groups is a necessity.

All HighMatch assessments are ADA compliant, use inclusive language, and support a variety of accommodations, leading to less funnel abandonment and higher completion rates.

Why Face Validity is Integral

To measure a candidate’s qualification and competencies accurately, the assessment must be relevant to the role–and that’s why face validity is a priority at HighMatch.

Candidates who are faced with questions that seem irrelevant to role they are applying for are less likely to take the assessment seriously or to finish the test at all.

Our psychologists work with your hiring team to design questions that meet industry standards and are tailored specifically to your role and workplace.

We closely adhere to the EEOC’s Uniform Guidelines and SIOP’s Principles to provide you with a best-in-practice personnel selection process.

We’re Committed to Bias-free Insights

We perform rigorous adverse-impact validation testing to ensure that all of our assessments are bias-free.

Additionally, our psychology team strictly adheres to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures as well as the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology’s (SIOP) Principles for the Validation and Use of Personnel Selection Procedures.
