Streamlined Hiring with Intuitive Tools **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joshua M. | Lead Recruiter - Go Live Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021 **What do you like best about eSkill?** I really enjoy eSkill's ease of use, especially when it comes to selecting assessments from the large database or creating our own using the eSkill Author function. The assessment database offers a wide array of topics and allows me to easily find what I need by just entering a keyword. I appreciate that eSkill Author lets us create assessments and questions for niche topics. The integration with our Applicant Tracking System, Bullhorn, provides a seamless experience for reviewing assessments and scores. The initial setup was very easy and intuitive, and the support from the Client Success Manager and eSkill Technical Support has been fast and reliable. There's also a helpful library of guides and 'how to's' in the eSkill Help Center. Lastly, I'm impressed with how user-friendly and accessible everything is. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** Editing and managing templates could be more user-friendly, as it's sometimes difficult to tell which template is for what action. Perhaps a description of what each template is for would be helpful. **Recommendations to others considering eSkill:** I would definitely recommend eSkill as an assessment platform for any organization, big or small. Whether it's a basic Microsoft Office test you are looking for or a more complex subject matter, eSkill has it covered. Tests can be created from scratch or selected from their large catalog. Support has been top-notch and all eSkill customers are assigned an Account Manager who makes the transition to this tool seamless and hassle-free. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** eSkill simplifies hiring decisions in our Healthcare IT Go Live practice, making the recruiter's job easier and improving candidate selection. ### 2. Intuitive, Easily Searchable Question Library Help Us Filter Candidates **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** E C. | Project Implementator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** I received the best end-user feedback regarding the AI assistant to look up questions, as it has streamlined so much our test-making process to evaluate candidates for the different areas to service our clients. — Well-calibrated questions: Especially the technical questions; the questions always hit the mark for their stated difficulty level and are well constructed. —Easy to navigate: We breeze through sending tests to candidates, we know where to look up reports, etc. —Great account manager: They are so responsive and lovely. I don't think any query of mine spend more that two days in the void before an answer. —It Just Works. Reliable basically all of the time in my experience (unless maintenance is scheduled). **What do you dislike about eSkill?** It's hard to keep track of usage. It would be great if there was a usage dashboard somewhere. Technically, we can judge by initiated + completed tests, but a one-step solution would be great in order to be a good partner for the platform **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** Filtering candidates has greatly improved. We feel we are getting higher quality candidates. In mass recruitment, that is such an added value to our business processes. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Hello EC, Thanks for your thoughtful review! We're so happy to hear that our AI assistant has helped streamline your test-making process. And it's great that you have such a positive relationship with your account manager - we love when our people make a difference! We appreciate your feedback on an improved usage dashboard, we'll communicate this directly to our product team. Have a wonderful week, - Chris B. ### 3. Position Relevant Assessments and Outstanding Support Make eSkill a Hiring Standout **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Alisa S. | Talent Acquisition Operations Advisor, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** eSkill stands out for its credibility as a pre-employment assessment platform. The structured, role-relevant assessments give our hiring process a defensible, professional foundation that instills confidence with both our team and our candidates. The content library is impressive in its breadth and flexibility; being able to select, customize, and combine test modules across a wide range of roles and skill sets means we're not forcing candidates into a one-size-fits-all experience. But honestly, what has made the biggest difference is the support we've received from Stefan and Chance. They've been genuinely invested in our success: responsive, proactive, and willing to dig into the specifics of our use case rather than offering generic guidance. That level of partnership is rare with a vendor and has made our rollout significantly smoother. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** The platform's interface can feel a bit dated compared to more modern HR tech tools. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** Before eSkill, our pre-employment assessment process lacked consistency — there was no standardized way to objectively evaluate candidates' skills before moving them further in the hiring process, which put a heavier burden on recruiters and hiring managers to make judgment calls without structured data. eSkill has allowed us to introduce a repeatable, skills-based screening step that creates a more equitable and defensible hiring process across our organization. For our HUB Customer Central pilot specifically, we've been able to tailor assessments to the actual competencies needed for customer service and sales roles, which means we're advancing candidates who are genuinely better matched to the position. The result is more confidence in our shortlists, less time spent on candidates who aren't the right fit, and a stronger overall candidate quality entering the interview stage. It's also given our TA team a credible, easy-to-explain tool to bring to hiring manager conversations around candidate readiness. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Wow, thanks for the wonderful review, Alisa! Creating a reliable, skills-based screening process is the core goal of what we're trying to achieve at eSkill, so hearing about your positive experience is wonderful to hear. We hear you on the platform interface - our team is actively working to improve our UX. And we appreciate your kind words about Stefan and Chance. Those two are so passionate about what their work and do a tremendous job supporting their customers. I'll make sure to pass your message along. - Chris B. ### 4. Responsive Support, Easy Setup, and Effective for Pre-Employment Screening **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Julie V. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** One of the main things I like about eSkill is that as a customer, they listen to us. They've been very helpful in setting up additional assessments to administer. I just appreciate the fact that they're responsive. By having eSkill responsive to our requests, it has made our jobs easier because we have several vendors that require a lot of back-and-forth just to get an answer, but eSkill is one of those vendors that is very responsive. Also, the initial setup of eSkill was very easy. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** Just personally for our business, we need the ability to test someone's literacy level in American English, and score it to meet the requirements of the client. eSkills is working on it, but it's not there yet. Nothing against the company - they are working on it. It's not an easy thing to do. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** eSkills helps screen out new hires who are not computer literate. Before eSkills, we'd lose training time showing someone how to open a 2nd screen, or use a mouse. Now we can screen those applicants out before learning too late they can't perform basic computer activities. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Hello Julie, Thank you for your positive review! It's great to hear that we've helped you identify computer literacy skills for candidates. And your comments on our responsiveness is music to our ears - we're happy our team has made communication smooth for you. We're still hard at work on that American English assessment for you - we'll let you know as soon as it's ready. - Chris B. ### 5. Efficient Assessment Bias Minimizer **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ngozi N. | Manager, Talent Acquisition, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** I really value eSkill for simplifying the administration of assessments. I like how it helps my team administer, create, and evaluate assessments objectively and mostly free of bias. The blind coding assessments are particularly useful, as they enable managers to evaluate these assessments without bias since they can't identify the candidates. I appreciate how you can do almost everything within the platform, making it very convenient. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** I don't like that I have to create the multiple-choice questions outside of eSkill. Also, multiple-choice and team scoring can't be combined immediately to give an overall score. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** eSkill helps my team easily administer, create, and evaluate assessments objectively, reducing bias. The blind coding assessments ensure evaluations are fair by keeping candidates anonymous. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Hello Ngozi, Thanks so much for your thoughtful review! Our goal is to make skills-based hiring the standard, and it's great to hear that our assessments help you evaluate candidates without bias. I'll pass along your feedback regarding multiple-choice question creation to our product team. -Chris B. ### 6. Easy to Use with Smooth Interface and Quick Issue Resolution **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 16, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** The ease of use. It is a product that my team had 1 short training on and they were able to start successfully using with next to no issues. Any issue that we've run into has been easily resolved. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** My team screens a large number of candidates and the reporting can be slow or clunky when I'm trying to pull a years worth of data at a time. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is helping us solve a speed to hire issue while maintaining quality of candidates. It helps us move well quickly. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Hello, Thanks for your review! It's great to hear that our pre-hire assessment platform helps you improve your speed to hire and hiring quality. - Chris B. ### 7. Easy Reporting, User-Friendly Platform, and Fantastic Integration **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nikki O. | Director of Operations, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** reporting is easy, the platform is very user friendly and the integration is fantastic! **What do you dislike about eSkill?** If there were further reporting details to pull with the integration, that would be helpful. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** eSkill allows us to provide assessments in many areas. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Thanks for your review, Nikki! It's great to hear that you find our platform to be user friendly. And I appreciate you sharing how important the integration is for you. I'll communicate your feedback regarding reports with our product team. - Chris ### 8. Highly Customizable with a Large Question Catalog **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** I like how customizable the system is, and I also appreciate that it offers a large catalog of questions to choose from. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** I haven’t really run into any issues. Since we’re in Canada, it would be great to have a feature that can translate questions into French. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** eSkill has been helpful for our clerical onboarding, since we use it to administer clerical tests with updated Microsoft Office modules. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Thanks for your review! We're happy to hear that our customization and content library help you test clerical skills! Our Microsoft Office assessments are some of our most popular, so you're in good company. - Chris B. ### 9. Stellar Reports and Support, Smooth Integration with eSkill **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mary P. **Reviewed Date:** January 07, 2026 **What do you like best about eSkill?** I like the reports feature of eSkill because it helps us to share results with hiring managers and keep our records. The support is amazing, with Chance and Stefan always answering all our questions on time. eSkill's adaptability is great for our industry, which requires flexibility in an assessment tool. The initial setup was very smooth. The combination of these aspects made me prefer eSkill over Qualtrics. **What do you dislike about eSkill?** Branding could be better and integrations. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use eSkill for employee assessments. It solves the problem of not having reports to check results. The reports help us share results with hiring managers and maintain records. The support is amazing, timely, and the adaptability meets our industry's unique needs with flexible assessments. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Thanks for your review, Mary! It's great to hear that Chance and Stefan took great care of you - they're absolute rockstars. And I appreciate you sharing how important assessment flexibility is for your industry - very enlightening. - Chris ### 10. Eskill review **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** William C. | Senior Recruiter, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2022 **What do you like best about eSkill?** eSkill allows us to create and customize assessments to find the most useful questions for each department in our company. Managers have been happy with the customization and other features included in eSkill. We are working to create custom assessments for each department in the company over the next few months to roll the tool out company-wide. Our Account manager has been a great help in finding questions to ask in the custom assessments we are creating and we couldn't be more thankful! We are hoping to use eSkill for many years to come **What do you dislike about eSkill?** eSkill can sometimes be difficult to navigate. We do need to do a bit of searching to find different topics we would like to include in assessments when building our own. To solve this issue, we were able to connect with our account manager for about an hour of our time to go through the assessment builder tool, questions and categories available as well as other ideas. We created a customized data entry assessment using several different question categories that will be very helpful to us while continuing to grow our business. **What problems is eSkill solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are able to assess the skills, abilities, and aptitudes of applicants quickly and easily while also ensuring the assessments are relevant to our different business functions. Previously, we were not able to customize or tailor our questions to specific departments and eSkill allows us to do that and so much more. We are working to create custom assessments for each department in the company over the next few months to roll the tool out company-wide. **Official Response from Chris Blomquist:** > Thanks for your feedback, William! We're happy our customization tools help you create relevant tests for your candidates. And it's great to hear about your positive relationship with your account manager. We're sorry to hear our ease of navigation doesn't meet your expectations. We are in the process of improving our UI, and we would love to hear your thoughts!
