Answers to common questions from hiring teams

If you are evaluating Intake Eval for your hiring process, these answers will help you understand how the platform works, what candidates experience, what your team receives, and how it supports your internal review workflow.

What does Intake Eval actually do?

Intake Eval is a self-serve candidate assessment platform. Companies use it to create role-based simulations, invite candidates, and review structured performance data from realistic work tasks before making their own hiring decisions.

What kinds of roles can we evaluate with Intake Eval?

The platform is designed for operational and business support roles where execution quality matters, including Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, admin, coordinator, billing, support, and similar workflow-driven positions. Simulations can be aligned to the responsibilities your team wants to assess.

What does the candidate experience look like?

Candidates complete a realistic browser-based simulation that mirrors common workplace tools and decision-making. They may review emails, respond to tasks, update notes, manage priorities, and complete role-specific work in a timed environment. They do not need to install software.

How long does it take to set up an intake?

Most companies can set up an intake quickly once the role, company context, and evaluation goals are clear. The platform is built to reduce setup friction while still giving hiring teams enough control over the role context and candidate experience.

What do we receive after a candidate completes the simulation?

You receive a structured assessment report that includes task outcomes, written responses, timing context, communication review, areas for review, strengths, and an overall performance signal. The goal is to give hiring teams clearer assessment data than interviews alone.

Can we share the simulation with multiple candidates?

Yes. You can use an intake link to invite and evaluate multiple candidates for the same role. This makes it easier to compare performance side by side using a consistent assessment standard.

Is Intake Eval meant to replace interviews?

No. Intake Eval is software that supports internal review; it does not replace human judgment. Teams can use the assessment data to decide what to review next, what questions to ask, and how a candidate's observed performance compares with their stated experience.

Can the simulation be customized to our company?

Yes. Company context, role expectations, and workflow details can be used to make the simulation feel more relevant to your environment. That helps produce assessment results that are more useful for your internal review process.

How does pricing work?

Pricing is built around assessment usage rather than making you pay for every applicant who clicks a link. The goal is to keep it practical for teams evaluating multiple candidates while focusing cost on the reports and performance insights that matter.

How does Intake Eval handle candidate data and AI evaluation?

Candidate responses and simulation activity are processed to generate structured assessments and performance insights. Intake Eval includes published legal and policy documents covering privacy, terms, data processing, and AI fairness. AI insights are designed to support internal review and should be reviewed by humans rather than used as the sole decision factor.

Does Intake Eval make hiring decisions for my company?

No. Intake Eval provides simulation-based assessment tools and candidate performance data to support your internal hiring process. Final hiring decisions are made by your team.

Is Intake Eval a recruiting or staffing service?

No. Intake Eval is a self-serve software platform used to create and manage candidate assessments. It does not recruit, staff, screen candidates on your behalf, or act as an employment agency.

Does Intake Eval provide consulting?

No. Intake Eval provides product support, demos, and onboarding help for the platform, but does not provide consulting or hiring advisory services.
