Why proctoring matters
When assessments influence hiring decisions, integrity is essential. Proctoring reduces impersonation and answer sharing.
The goal is not to “catch” candidates; it’s to keep the process fair for everyone.
Design a candidate-friendly proctored exam
Keep instructions simple, run a short system check, and clearly state what is monitored.
Use timeboxing and question randomization to reduce leakage.
Provide a support path if candidates face network or device issues.
Operational checklist
Define skills and difficulty bands.
Set proctoring rules (identity checks, tab switching, webcam rules).
Use post-exam analytics to flag anomalies (rapid answer patterns, repeated similarity).
