TestUP is a web-based tool for assessing candidates during pre-employment hiring. Employers can create positions, schedule tests, send candidates testing links, and review performance. Its test database includes skills and personality assessments, with recommendations based on industry and role. The Candidate Dashboard supports applicant comparisons across criteria such as skipped questions. Applicant Score Analysis reports correct and skipped answers and time spent on each question, with comparisons to averages. Users can request a Contributor account to upload tests that TestUP says will remain private to their company. A Career Widget can display openings on a company website, and each test has a link for external job postings. The 30-day trial includes access to pre-employment testing features and does not require credit card information. Each detailed employment test assigned to a candidate uses one credit. All four plans list online reporting 24/7; the Free plan includes zero credits, while paid plans start at $49.00 USD per month. TestUP says it uses firewalls, encryption, and password protection, and limits information access to designated staff and administrators.
