Pre-Employment Screening Services



Pre-Employment Screening

Get the Right Candidate the First Time

Pre-employment screening can help make new-hire training less expensive and time consuming. If the wrong candidate is selected for a job valuable payroll dollars are wasted. Your company must spend additional time bringing the new employee up to speed, or worse, you are faced with a quick turnover forcing another round of job interviews.

When hiring new employees, making sure you hire the right candidate for the job is essential. Relying on "seat-of-the-pants" feelings about candidates' abilities is a poor way to hire when tools are available - and expected - that assess candidates in a fair fashion.

A pre-employment skills assessment is critical when you need someone to start their new job with specific job-related skills or experience. Pre-employment test assessments helps weed out unqualified candidates early in the job filling process. Besides the time and money savings, having quantitative data that support your hiring decisions protects you from being faulted for discriminatory practices.

Choosing the Right Pre-Employment Screening Service

Since the introduction of our job-based testing in 2003, eSkill has been the premier pre-employment screening service for job skills testing. There are several , fundamental reasons for why modern companies now require pre-employment screening tests :

  • A pre-employment background check establishes truthfulness in the application, and indicates whether there is a tendency towards delinquent behavior.
  • A pre-employment background check establishes truthfulness in the application, and indicates whether there is a tendency towards delinquent behavior.
  • A pre-employment skills assessment can give quantitative data about your applicants' skills to help protect your companies' hiring decisions from discrimination litigation

eSkill's tests, unlike the static, single-subject tests commonly available, are each customized from multiple subjects to fit your jobs. eSkill offers over 100 subjects and 1500 selectable subtopics in a wide variety of areas, including:

  • IT (such as Web Development, Operating Systems, Application Development, etc.)
  • Office Software (including Adobe and MS Office)
  • Typing Tests and Data Entry (including 10-Key Data Entry, General Typing, etc.)
  • Language skills

   "My experience with using eSkill as a technical testing tool was great.
    I found the site to be very informative as well as user friendly. I was also surprised as to how up to the minute the material for testing candidates seemed to be. In addition, each of the candidates I tested said the same thing, "easy to use and very comprehensive".
   I would have no problem recommending this site as part of any screening process for either technical or non-technical positions.
   Thumbs up!"

   "eSkill provides Service Credit Union the opportunity to test prospective employees' skills before they are hired or even interviewed. The software is very user friendly, and managers can create tests that meet the needs of their departments or branches. You can e-mail the test to applicants before they even come in for an interview. Another benefit is that you can have several locations and purchase a package based on the number of users of the site. We have several locations stateside and overseas and the eSkill software is accessible by all. I would recommend eSkill to any company!"

We're able to put together a relevant test within minutes based on eSkill's data base of questions, the candidates have easy access to the tests and the reporting options that eSkill offers allow us to select a small number of candidates to interview based on their test performance.

Additionally, eSkill has provided us with excellent and timely customer service every time."
