Interview Mocha now launches ‘Mark for Review’ feature by popular demand from many of our existing and prospective customers. This allows the test taker to mark any question he would like to revisit. While attempting the test if the candidate is not sure about the answer then he or she can mark the particular question for 'Mark for Review' and can move further. During the session, he can any time revisit the marked question and change or verify the original answer. In the earlier version, this facility was not available and it closely resembled an interview scenario in which a job seeker has to answer a question as and when it was put to him by the interviewer.

What is a Staffing Agency? Staffing agencies are used by organizations to recruit candidates for a wide variety of employment needs. Whenever any vacancy arises, companies send job descriptions to the staffing agencies. The staffing agency needs to find a candidate whose skills match those mentioned in the job description. Once this matching is done the staffing agency needs to thoroughly screen the candidate. Once found suitable the candidate is hired by the staffing agency, not the employer. The salary will be issued by the staffing agency, but the length of employment will be determined by the employer. The jobs offered by the staffing agencies are either temporary positions or permanent positions. In case it is a permanent position the staffing agency works like a recruiter and the employees are then hired by the employer directly.
iMocha and ClassMarker provide online assessments, the use cases are different. ClassMarker only provides a testing platform, you have to create questions on your own. The use cases are less and it is used only by a small cluster of recruiters. So, don't go by the big brands you see listed on their website as only 1 or 2 recruiters of a company may be using ClassMarker without any cheating prevention. Unlike ClassMarker, iMocha is an online pre-employment assessment software with over 1000+ ready-to-use skill tests and simulators with the option to use your own questions, or you can ask for a custom test as well.

Search for ‘Soft Skills’ on Google, you will find 2, 58, 00,000 results. Huge database… Isn’t it? What was recapitulated in these searches was “what do recruiters expect from candidates while hiring?” The recruiter is the facilitator between the candidate and his next career move. Although recruiters play their cards close to the chest, definitely there are ways top talent can stand out and be discovered. Now to stand out among all other, a candidate needs to get in front of the recruiter and show him or her why he is the right one for the job. Apart from degree, credentials and technical knowledge, what will make a candidate stand out is his Soft Skills. Soft skills portray how one acts in his life and work. Studies reveal that 75 percent of success depends on people skills (soft skills) and 25 percent on technical knowledge. That does not mean technical knowledge is not important but soft skills defines who you are and how you act. Ironically, soft skills are the hardest skills to develop. So make sure you only hire a candidate after a throrough soft skill assessment using one of the best skills assessment tools.
