The Candidate Page is where you can see all assessments that have been submitted by candidates, including their score, assessment status, solving time, and decisions made by hiring managers.
In this article, we'll guide you through the process of navigating your Candidate Page.
To access the Candidate’s page, on the homepage of your Canditech account, click on the Candidates tab on the top of your screen.
Here you will find a list of all your candidates, the status of their assessment, solving time, scores, and much more.
On this page, you can search and filter by a specific candidate, assessment, assessment status, or assessment decision.
What Does Each Assessment Status Mean?
Canditech utilizes a comprehensive system with five distinct statuses to track a candidate's assessment progress:
Invite Sent: At this stage, an invitation has been sent to the candidate.
Opened: This status indicates that the candidate has opened the assessment. However, they have not yet begun the assessment.
In Progress: The candidate is engaged in the assessment and actively answering questions.
Completed: Once the candidate has finished answering all the questions, and has chosen to submit the assessment, it will be marked as "Completed."
Abandoned: This status applies when a candidate leaves the assessment without submitting it, and the allotted time has elapsed, preventing the candidate from re-entering into the assessment.
How Do I Resend an Assessment Invitation to a Candidate?
If a candidate is in the Invite Sent or Opened status and cannot locate their assessment invitation email, you can retrieve their invitation link directly from the Candidates page.
Locate the candidate in the Candidates table.
Select the candidate using the checkbox on the left side of the row.
Click Get Assessment Invitation Link.
Copy the link and send it directly to the candidate.
Please note: This option is intended for candidates in the Invite Sent or Opened statuses who have not yet started their assessment.
The Get Assessment Invitation Link option copies the candidate's original invitation link. If the assessment invitation has already expired based on the assessment's Expiry Date settings, the candidate will not be able to start the assessment using this link. In that case, delete the candidate and invite them again to generate a new invitation.

Note: This is different from the Retake Assessment option, which is available within a candidate's assessment session after they have started or completed an assessment.

How do you make Assessment Decisions in Canditech?
Canditech allows users to make a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” decision on a candidates’ assessment.
A “thumbs up” decision means the candidate has “passed” the assessment.
A “thumbs down” decision means the candidate has “failed” the assessment.

Note: decisions made on the Canditech platform will sync to your ATS, if applicable.
