Custom question type.
Test recall, accuracy, and attention to detail with Fill in the blank questions
Fill in the Blank Questions assess how precisely candidates recall key concepts, terms, formulas, or code syntax. This format requires candidates to supply the correct word, value, or expression, no multiple-choice aids or guesswork.
Perfect for roles where detail, precision, and knowledge accuracy matter. Simple to deploy, easy to score, and effective for fast, high-signal screening. Ideal for technical, operational, and knowledge-based positions.

Assess what candidates truly know
Unlike multiple choice, this format removes visual cues and tests actual recall. Candidates must enter the exact missing word, number, or logic element ensuring precision under light pressure.
Useful for validating product knowledge, domain-specific terminology, formulas, or command-line accuracy. Test creators define correct responses and accepted variations to match real-world expectations. This format helps separate memorized knowledge from real understanding.
Flexible input control with automated scoring
Create single-word, numeric, or short-phrase blanks that test factual recall and syntax accuracy. Support for case sensitivity, multiple correct answers, and spelling tolerance is built in.
Use in isolation or alongside other question types to build hybrid assessments. Add context with surrounding content, images, or example-driven prompts. Scoring is fully automated for speed, objectivity, and consistency.

Validate core knowledge with zero ambiguity
Fill in the Blank Questions eliminate guesswork and test whether candidates know the exact information. Responses are either right or wrong making it ideal for compliance-heavy or technically exact roles.
This format reveals gaps in basic knowledge that interviews or MCQs often miss. Used early in the funnel, it improves screening accuracy and reduces unqualified candidates. An efficient way to validate real expertise at scale.
Precision scoring with review transparency
Each answer is automatically scored against predefined correct responses or regex-based logic. Optionally review borderline responses, typos, or partial matches in the review dashboard.
Collaborative scoring workflows allow reviewers to override or comment where needed. Sort and filter candidates based on total accuracy or specific skill domains. Perfect for high-volume evaluation with minimal manual review.
