Participant FAQ

Assessment Experience

Please be sure to find a quiet place to focus. Come prepared as you would with any other job interview. Be sure to research the position and company, review the job posting, and speak to it during your assessment. We also recommend you complete the practice questions before starting your assessment, take notes, and give enough time to answer each question. You may also redo the practice questions as many times as you wish until you feel comfortable with the platform.

In your Knockri assessment, you’re going to be asked interview questions based on your previous experiences. Things like “Tell me about a time you overcame a challenge” or “Describe a time you helped someone in need.”

When answering, we want you to describe what you did, step-by-step. Tell us as much as you can within the time limit. It’s okay to repeat yourself, pause to collect your thoughts, or even start your sentence again. Most importantly, have fun with this and make sure to focus on what you did during your experience.

You can do well by speaking authentically, clearly, and at a reasonable pace. There’s no need to rehearse your answers; speak naturally and treat the interview like a conversation. Don’t worry if you have a strong accent — our analysis is subject to strict quality control processes.

We also recommend that you make the best use of your allotted time and take notes as you go through your assessment. You can either use a pen and paper or the notes section within your assessment.

Technology​

You will need a stable internet connection and a device that can access either Chrome, Firefox, or Safari web browsers.

At the start of your Knockri activity you will go through a brief setup process where you can verify your microphone or webcam is working properly.  

For more information on the technical requirements, please visit Supported Devices.

We recommend a minimum internet speed of 512 kbps. If the platform is unable to upload your responses, it will save to your system locally, and you will be able to upload them later when you have a stronger internet connection.

We want to make sure you get a fair chance to complete this activity, which is why we’ve put measures in place to help with internet connection issues.

In some cases you may be asked to download your response after you answer a question so that it can be uploaded at the end.  You won’t be able to open these files, but they will be safely stored in case of internet issues.

Most mic or webcam related issues experienced by participants can be resolved by following the guidance in our How to Fix Tech Setup Issues
