External tests overview

External tests are used to link to external suppliers of psychometric, aptitude, and ability tests. Your Administrator sets up each External Test Provider used by your organization, together with details of the tests provided and the test measurements to be used. Results returned depend on the Provider and your organization's agreement with them, but can include:
