"Great Pre-Employment Tests & Very Responsive"

5/5

What do you like best about HR Avatar?

If you have any issues or questions you can just pick up the phone and call them. Amazingly, someone who can help you actually answers the phone. Every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HR Avatar?

Elapsed time before a new login is required is too short Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HR Avatar:

Depending on your industry, you may want to create a custom test with questions specific to your needs. With HR Avatar this is easily done. We even had them add our custom test to an existing test and created our standard Test Battery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HR Avatar solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using HR Avatar has allowed us to screen out employees prior to beginning the interview process. This not only saves potentially bad hires, but time and money as well. I remeber well the time before we found HR Avatar. Our employees were of a much lower caliber. They could be suddenly agressive, damge tools and equipment, or otherwise act out. Since using HR Avatar we have never again experienced this caliber of employee. We don't always hit a Home Run with HR. But we never strike out like we used to.

"Time Saver"

4/5

What do you like best about HR Avatar?

I can review several applicants quickly. Applicants can complete the process on their own time. Some decent insights into the people interested in the position. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HR Avatar?

There are some accuracy issues with the interview process. We always meet with the applicant before getting a conditional offer, which can help clear up those inaccurate readings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate the feedback about our tools and we agree that no single tool is perfect. In fact, we suggest that you always use assessment and reference check results in conjunction with multiple other sources of information, like interviews, to ensure that no single source carries too much weight. This approach usually produces the best overall results.

We understand that not everyone, even these days, has access to a computer that can record and upload video. That's why we allow candidates without the necessary capabilities to enter text-based responses. This option is only presented if the computer cannot record video.

"Very helpful interactive assessments"

4.5/5

What do you like best about HR Avatar?

I think the most unique element of the HR Avatar assessment is the interactive video exercises that focus on specific jobs and create real-life settings for applicants to perform in. I also really like the ability to pay per assessment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HR Avatar?

I wish there was more comprehensive benchmarking ability (i.e. against years of experience, level in organization, etc.) to interpret the results of the questionaires better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about HR Avatar?

First and foremost, the team over at HR Avatar is quick to respond to support requests - whether it be a question or inquiry into why a user had a particular experience. A close second is that HR Avatar's algorithms help prevent candidate cheating and also helps identify when the candidate's answers/responses are genuine. Also, HR Avatar spends time revisiting their assessments for improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Hiring Virtual Assistant"

5/5

What do you like best about HR Avatar?

The system does a great job at presenting real life work scenarios simulating a day in the life and then assessing a candidates ability to perform the real life work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HR Avatar?

There are alot of options, so it can take a little while to figure out which exact tests/roles within the system that matches the role you want the new hire for. All in, the help they provide is great, and responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
