About the Administrative Assistant test

From making sure your teams work effectively together to maintaining strong and consistent communication channels and making sure internal business processes and practices are adhered to, an administrative assistant isn’t just necessary for your organization to run smoothly; they can help transform how it runs.

This test evaluates candidates’ abilities to communicate effectively and efficiently with both internal and external stakeholders. It also assesses if the candidates have the requisite knowledge to effectively organize and manage their time. Additionally, the test will appraise their attention to detail, as well as their ability to solve problems through their critical and independent thinking skills.

This screening test will help you identify proven and experienced administrative assistants who can not only provide direct support to your organization, but who can also help improve your everyday processes to boost the way you do business.

Review from G2

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
