About the Zendesk Test

The Zendesk software test is an online test comprised of multiple-choice questions that assess a candidate's practical understanding of the Zendesk software.

The test can determine candidates' proficiency levels in using Zendesk using the software package. Candidates who have worked in customer support or sales roles may be familiar with using Zendesk, but their experiences may vary.

The Zendesk test can help you determine a candidate's skill level in using the software, ensuring you shortlist the best candidates based on your role requirements.

Why should you use a Zendesk test for recruiting?

Zendesk is a popular CRM and service-based tool used in many customer-focused businesses. Many applicants may state they are proficient in using Zendesk, but proficiency levels may vary from one candidate to another. It is essential that recruiters assess software skills as Zendesk is an integral part of customer service or sales roles. Nonetheless, this is difficult to do through an interview alone.

Neuroworx's Zendesk test solves this challenge by providing you with an easy-to-administer and efficient way of shortlisting candidates based on their proficiency levels in using Zendesk. The test is beneficial in helping to identify candidates from a large applicant pool who have the required skill level. The test can also be used to distinguish between candidates who have seemingly similar levels of skill.

When used in the early stage of the recruitment process, the test also provides a cost-effective way of narrowing down the applicant pool to only those candidates who have the required proficiency levels in using Zendesk. This means the latter stages of your recruitment process are focused on the best candidates - ensuring your recruiters make the right hiring decision.

Proficiency in using Zendesk is a requirement for many roles such as:

How our test assesses Zendesk skills

In Neuroworx's Zendesk test, candidates will need to answer a range of questions targeting an intermediate level of proficiency, from demonstrating knowledge across various Zendesk features and functions to set-up and administration. The test is designed to indicate how well a candidate understands Zendesk based on a final test score, which can then be compared to the scores of other applicants.

The multiple-choice questions consist of one correct answer and two to four distractors - mostly generic mistakes or misconceptions, which makes the test challenging and helps measure a candidate's proficiency more accurately.

During the development process, the test was rigorously analysed to maximise reliability and validity in line with industry best practices. It was created and tested by experienced Zendesk and psychometric experts, and field-tested with a representative sample of job applicants who have varying levels of Zendesk experience just like you might find in a talent pool.

Each test is reviewed by a panel of individuals representing diverse backgrounds to check for any sensitivity, fairness, face validity and accessibility issues. This ensures each candidate has a fair chance of demonstrating their true level of Zendesk proficiency.

Our software tests are monitored to ensure they are up-to-date and optimised for performance.
