Important Notice for Applicants that applied for both Career Tracks

If you received this guide via email, it means you applied for both the Full Stack Developer and Tech Sales career tracks. Since the assessments for these tracks share overlapping tests, applicants who applied for both have the following options:

1. To remain eligible for both career tracks, you must complete the Tech Sales assessment before starting the Full Stack assessment. Once you’ve completed the Tech Sales assessment, you can access the Partial Full Stack assessment via the link in your email.

2. If you only wish to pursue the Full Stack Developer career track, you can skip the Tech Sales assessment and instead complete the Comprehensive Full Stack Developer Assessment.

3. If you miss the Tech Sales assessment deadline, you will be required to complete the Comprehensive Full Stack Developer Assessment. In this case, you will no longer be eligible for the Tech Sales career track.

Welcome to the second phase of the admissions process! In this stage, we want to assess your ability to learn and apply new concepts in a technical challenge, as well as your mindset. This phase isn’t just about the quality of your answers—it’s also about your determination, motivation, and ability to complete the challenge under time constraints. We’re not looking for perfection, but we do want to see your best effort. Show us that you’re ready for the challenge!

For this test, we will be using TestGorilla, please see the below information regarding TestGorilla and the reason why we will be using the tool.

What is TestGorilla?

TestGorilla is an innovative pre-employment testing platform that enables companies to evaluate candidates more accurately and objectively. Rather than relying solely on resumes or interviews, TestGorilla uses scientifically validated assessments to measure a candidate's skills, cognitive abilities, personality traits, and job-specific competencies. The platform offers customisable tests tailored to the needs of the role, helping us make better hiring decisions based on data, not just impressions.

Why Are We Using TestGorilla?

At Project Y, we believe in building a team of highly skilled individuals who are the right fit for both the role and our company culture. Traditional recruitment methods, such as reviewing resumes and conducting interviews, can sometimes miss important indicators of a candidate's true capabilities. By using TestGorilla, we can:

Reduce Bias: We aim to evaluate candidates based on their abilities rather than subjective criteria, ensuring a fair and level playing field for everyone.
Streamline the Hiring Process: With TestGorilla, we can quickly assess skills and competencies, allowing us to focus on the best candidates without lengthy back-and-forth.
Improve Hiring Accuracy: The platform gives us data-driven insights into a candidate’s strengths and areas for growth, helping us make more informed decisions.
Ensure Better Job Fit: By testing for specific skills and attributes that are crucial for the role, we increase the likelihood of finding the right match for both the candidate and Project Y.

Your results will automatically be processed by TestGorilla, and you will receive a confirmation email directly from them to acknowledge your test submission.
