1. Creating an Assessment

1. Navigate to the App Launcher and input "Question Sets" in the search bar.
2. Choose "Create a new Question Set".
3. Set a "Passing Score" for the assessment which helps to ascertain if a candidate has passed or failed.
4. To enter the assessment builder interface, click on the "Build" tab within the record detail.

2. Assessment Settings

Click on the "settings icon", then move to the Timer/Quiz section:

• Time limit for the assessment (in seconds): Optionally set a time limit. If set, the assessment will auto-submit when the timer runs out.
• Time limit per page (in seconds): Optionally set a page-wise time limit.
• Timer Location: Choose its display position - Hidden, Top, or Bottom.

3. Adding Questions

On the left panel, various question types are available:

• Selection-based Questions (Radio Group, Rating Scale, Checkboxes, Dropdown, Multiselect, Yes/No Question): Assign scores to each option under the "Choices" section on the right panel. Each option can bear a positive or negative score. Correct answers can be specified in the "Data" section.

Assessments can be:
