Monster Applicant Assessment

Monster Applicant Assessment video playerDiscover the most qualified federal job candidates with our applicant testing platform

The selection of high-quality applicants for critical vacancies has a direct impact on a federal agency’s ability to achieve its mission. Finding highly qualified candidates for a job can be difficult and candidate self-evaluations oftentimes are insufficient or inaccurate. In a push to modernize the candidate assessment process, the White House issued Executive Order 13932 to encourage agencies to utilize objective, skills-based assessments. Subsequently, a governmentwide Hiring Assessment and Selection Outcome Dashboard was published, now managed by OPM, that tracks federal agencies’ use of assessments. More recently, OPM and OMB issued a joint memo on Improving the Federal Hiring Experience that further elaborates on the necessity for multi-hurdle assessments. Good news: MonsterGov is here to help.

Monster Applicant Assessments is an applicant testing platform that allows federal agencies to assess job candidates – based on competencies, technical skills, experience, and more – all within the application process for a seamless applicant experience. MonsterGov’s solution is federally compliant, FedRAMP-secure, and meets EO 13932 requirements for agencies implementing skills-based hiring. 

Our testing platform and assessment catalog integrates with Monster Hiring Management Enterprise (MHME) to automatically populate scores and improves the federal hiring process by accurately, consistently, and reliably measuring candidate proficiency. MonsterGov's I/O Psychologists can also work with your agency's subject matter experts (SMEs) to develop custom assessments for unique federal jobs or mission-critical positions.

Unbiased Results 

Monster Applicant Assessment brings a data-driven approach to the federal selection process by providing empirical tests to identify applicant capabilities beyond their self-reported proficiency. Unlike traditional occupational questionnaires, which can inflate applicant scores, Monster Applicant Assessment provides tests that measure critical requirements in an unbiased way.

Standardized Assessments

MonsterGov offers two off-the-shelf standardized test batteries that can be used across federal supervisory or non-supervisory positions. We also construct agency-specific batteries from our catalog of validated tests to target particular competencies or test experience characteristics. These batteries can be combined with other assessments (e.g., Training and Experience (T&E) questions, structured interviews) in the selection process for a deeper understanding of candidates’ qualifications.
