TalentClick vs TestUP

TalentClick provides behavioral and skills assessments for hiring, employee development, and workplace safety. Its assessments cover personality traits, values and attitudes, cognitive abilities, and other characteristics intended to predict behavior on the job. Reports may include benchmarks, fit scores, suggested interview questions, and management considerations. A cloud portal supports assessment invitations and campaign reminders, fit-score sorting, a benchmark library, analytics, and report building. Assessment methods include normative assessments, self-rating, and multi-rater feedback; listed capabilities also include development plans, competency gap analysis, and role competency mapping. TalentClick offers a partner API and reports integrations with Oracle/Taleo and SAP/SuccessFactors. The company says it is SOC 2 certified, conducts annual voluntary audits, and uses third-party penetration testers. Reports and employee data are stored on US or Canadian servers. TalentClick states at least 99.5% uptime and says support responds to cases within one business day. The free basic account includes one assessment link per organization, active for 30 days, plus up to 20 free AVP uses. Subscription pricing is on request; some surveys and customizations may cost extra.

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.
