Korn Ferry Assess vs TestUP

Korn Ferry Assess helps organisations evaluate workforce capability and future potential against business strategy. Talent Suite uses Success Profiles to set out the skills, behaviours, and mindsets associated with roles. Teams can launch, track, and manage assessments from candidate selection through employee development, compare internal and external candidates with role criteria, and access reports and insights centrally. The platform can help identify people ready to lead now or later, as well as role-related skill gaps for personal development. Korn Ferry says its assessment data and analytics inform workforce planning, hiring, and leadership effectiveness. In Talent Suite, Learning Lab connects individual assessment results to curated learning journeys and AI-coached roleplays with real-time feedback. The product integrates with Workday through APIs and JSON-based inbound and outbound communications, with configurable data mapping, security roles, auditing capabilities, and standard reports. Korn Ferry states it holds BSI certifications for ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 27018. Pricing is on request. Participants need an active internet connection and a supported desktop browser; technical support is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week except company holidays.

TestUP is a web-based tool for pre-employment candidate assessment. Employers can create positions, schedule tests, send candidates links, and review performance. Its test database includes skills and personality assessments, with recommendations based on industry and role. The Candidate Dashboard compares applicants across criteria such as skipped questions, while Applicant Score Analysis reports correct and skipped answers, time spent per question, and comparisons with averages. Users can request a Contributor account to upload tests that TestUP says remain private to their company. A Career Widget can display openings on a company website, and each test has a link for external job postings. The 30-day trial includes all pre-employment testing features and requires no credit card information. Each detailed employment test assigned to a candidate uses one credit. All plans list online reporting 24/7; the Free plan also includes monthly email reports, while paid plans list custom email reports. The Free plan costs nothing and includes no credits; paid plans start at $49 a month with 10 credits.
