Assessment Builder & Scoring Rules
Configure multi-section assessments, custom timing rules, negative marking, and proctoring settings in the Clevid HR Console.
The Assessment Builder (/dashboard/assessment/create) lets engineering managers and university recruiters assemble structured evaluations in minutes.
Assessment structure
Every Clevid assessment consists of three layers:
- Metadata & Window: Title, role track, total duration (in minutes), invitation expiry window, and passing score threshold.
- Question Mix & Sections: A combination of Multiple-Choice (single or multi-select) and Coding problems drawn either directly or from reusable Question Banks.
- Proctoring & Workspace Policy: Pre-test readiness checks, camera/screen recording toggles, and single-monitor rules.
Scoring & grading mechanics
Clevid computes candidate scores automatically as soon as the session is submitted or the timer expires:
| Question Format | Grading Method | Partial Credit Support |
|---|---|---|
| Single-Select MCQ | Exact match against the correct option | No (100% or 0%, optional negative marking) |
| Multi-Select MCQ | All required options selected without incorrect selections | Optional proportional credit per correct option |
| Coding Problem | Weighted sum of passed sample + hidden test cases | Yes—each test case carries an explicit point weight |
Choosing a proctoring profile
Different hiring stages require different balances between convenience and strictness:
| Profile | Best For | What It Enforces |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Proctoring | Mid-senior remote engineering screens | Desktop app required, webcam + screen recording enabled, logs focus switches |
| High-Assurance Campus Drive | University placement drives & large cohorts | Single monitor required, blocks floating overlays, blocks virtual machines, strict focus lock |
