After selecting “Create with AI” in the assessment wizard and clicking “Next Step,” you’ll be presented with the AI assessment creation interface.

​

Step 2: Configure Assessment Parameters

​

Define Topics

• The platform pre-populates skill sets relevant to the job requisition
• You can select from these suggested topics or add custom ones
• For custom topics, simply type in the skills you want to assess (e.g., “strategy”)

​
