Move beyond multiple-choice and test real analytical skills

Standard quizzes can’t capture how candidates think with data. Google Sheet Questions simulate real job tasks asking candidates to organize, calculate, analyze, and explain, just like they would in a real work scenario.

  • Measure formula fluency, attention to detail, and data storytelling
  • Reveal how candidates clean, manipulate, and work through datasets
  • Replace canned quiz answers with dynamic responses that reflect actual capability
  • Align assessment tasks directly with job performance expectations
  • Upload a dataset or create a structured spreadsheet task
  • Each candidate receives a unique, editable Google Sheet
  • Testlify tracks activity, manages timing, and auto-submits the response
  • Hiring teams review formulas, formatting, logic, and final output

Hands-on testing for hands-on roles

Google Sheet Questions go beyond static inputs, they enable dynamic task execution and real problem-solving using live data and formulas.

Core product features:

  • Task editor: Create spreadsheet-based exercises or import templates
  • Live Google Sheet Workspace: Familiar, no-learning-curve interface for candidates
  • Data Locking & Cell Protection: Protect parts of the sheet while testing formula creation
  • Timed Testing: Define time limits and enforce deadlines automatically

Assess depth, not just data entry

  • Surfaces strong performers through transparent, testable work samples
  • Identifies candidates who think critically with numbers and structure
  • Helps hiring teams compare how different candidates approach the same task
  • Reduces dependency on interviews by delivering objective, documented performance
