Really Bad even just moving your head a bit flags you
Flagging every time unnecessarily while reading questions which is placed in the left most part of the screen
I absolutely hated using this. I can't believe there are jobs that require this for a simple technical questionnaire. It records your screen, audio and video while you answer questions. It has face tracking and it warns you if you talk or make sounds. You aren't allowed to look to the side away from your screen, wear headphones or even have hair covering your ear while you take this test! This is spyware, and no HR person or recruiter should ever require this. At least once the test is over it does prompt you to uninstall the extension.
Spent an hour trying to get it to work. It required an invasive app on my phone as well, which also didn't work. Never got to take the assessment.
stars i can give to this extension is boolean.
If I could give it 0 stars, I would... This is a lot like installing spyware voluntarily. Nope. Not for me. Like an idiot, I installed it thinking "I have to". After the cognitive tests, I decided, "wait, NO I don't have to!". I might want the job that requires this, but wait... no I don't ;) Do yourself a favor and find an employer that doesn't require the use of a "personal computer" (straight from the instructions) to take an assessment using software that needs your camera, mic, logs keystrokes, monitors your entire screen and can completely scour your browsing history. I'm sorry, this was for a job, right? Red flags abound. Nope!
This is a bit overboard for a simple assesment. Plus the software flagged me for basically the enitrety of the assesment for whatever reason.
WORST PLATFORM EVER!!!!!!! PAIN TO WORK ON!!!
Do this test and for what? To "prove" honesty? Get over yourself as a company. You aren't that desirable to work for if you put candidates through this.
The test stopped because I looked at a pop-up warning that the test itself created.
worst
Ridiculously Invasive! Security Risk!
Asks for government ID. whats it for?
This is INSANE! Not only do they want access to your computer, which requires you to enable the camera, microphone, and movement sensors to track your eyes and every movement you make but they want you to then download an app so they are able to track your phone! What's worse is I know more than half of people asked to do this will just follow all the sheep to the butchers block!
Obviously a security and privacy risk. In addition, not allowing testers to utilize external sources of information misrepresents testers' competence in the workforce. In today's work environment, everyone has limitless access to common, universal sources of information via the internet. Forcing users to abandon that information for a job-related quiz not only harms the testers, but also the employer hiring them.
These kinds of tools are a terrifying security risk
basically they acesses everything on your browser
