Sections

A section is used to group a set of questions to do the following:

  • Show different questions to candidates who are taking the same test (question pooling)
  • Have an overall view of how a candidate has fared in a specific section (through reports)

There is no limit on the number of sections that you create and the number of questions that you add to a section.

Important: Sections are not visible to candidates.

Types of sections

There are two types of sections in Recruit: fixed and random

Note: Only random sections are used for question pooling.

Fixed

Questions that are added to a fixed section will be visible (in the same order) to all the candidates who are taking the test.

Random

These sections are used for question pooling. A certain number of questions are added to a section (pool) from which only a few questions are randomly shown in a test to the candidate. The number of questions that must be shown to the candidate can be configured by the recruiter.
