How to review candidate responses to assessment questions - for hiring managers and recruiters
Modified on Mon, 8 Sep, 2025 at 11:16 AM
Feature: Candidate Assessment Forms, Assessment Questions
For: Hiring Managers, Recruiters
I want to:
- See at-a-glance each candidate’s total Assessment Form score from the Candidate list.
- Open the candidate’s scored or non-scored Assessment Form to review answers and scores
- Understand the colour cues, ticks/crosses and ranking layout
View candidate scores at a glance (scored forms)
- Go to Jobs and open the relevant Job Title.
- The Candidates list appears.
- Check the Score A / Score B columns - the figure shown is the candidate’s total score.
Column labels look different? Your site admin may have renamed Score A / Score B (e.g. Application Score).
Tip:
Open the Assessment Form
Tables can't be imported directly. Please insert an image of your table which can be found here.
Where you are
Action
Candidate record
Click the kebab menu (⋮) and choose Assessment Form / Assessment Form B - found either in the Application Form tab or under More.
Read the score breakdown (scored forms)
Inside the form, each question shows:

Field on screen
Meaning
Points Available
Maximum points that can be achieved for that question.

Understanding how choice-question responses are displayed

Option answer display for choice questions
Colour / Icon
What it means
Green border
The option is a correct answer.
Green border + green tick
The candidate chose the correct answer.
Orange border + orange cross
The candidate chose an incorrect answer.
Dark grey border, no icon
Options the candidate didn't select. (For context only)
Key points
- A tick or cross only appears next to the option(s) the candidate chose
- An orange border and cross always appear together, signalling the candidate selected an incorrect answer.
- If multiple correct answers exist, each one is outlined in green
Understanding how order-of-importance responses are displayed
Each question shows two columns under the question text:
- Correct Order – The correct order set by the form designer.
- Candidate Order – How the candidate ranked the options.
In the Candidate Order column, each option is color-coded to quickly indicate correct or incorrect placements.
Tables can't be imported directly. Please insert an image of your table which can be found here.

FAQs
Why don’t I see the Score A / Score B columns in my candidate list?
Your site admin may have relabelled or hidden them. Ask them to confirm the column name and check if it’s switched on.
Can I download the scores into Excel?
Yes. In the candidate list, click Export > Excel (or CSV) and include the Score A / Score B columns. The export will show each candidate’s total score.
How is the overall score calculated when there are two assessment forms?
Score A totals questions from Assessment Form A; Score B totals questions from Assessment Form B. The system does not auto-combine them.
The “Correct Order / Candidate Order” panels aren’t showing - what’s wrong?
These panels only appear for order-of-importance question types. If you don’t see them, the question was set up as a different question type such as Choice or Rating.
