Written for the role you hire, not pulled from a library.

Gateway writes each assessment from your job description, so it asks for the work your role actually does. Two companies hiring the same title each get an assessment written for their own job.

  • Any role where the work can be shown: sales, support, marketing, finance, operations, recruiting, design and engineering.
  • The situations and the data come from the role, so the work feels like the job.
  • Your team can read and change every question before it goes out.

They handle the situations the job hands them.

A renewal at risk, an upset client, a decision to defend in front of leadership. Candidates work it through the way the role would, not by picking an answer.

  • Work in a spreadsheet, a document, slides, a whiteboard, code or SQL, or record a walkthrough.
  • Customers who answer back: an AI plays the client in a chat or on a call, and pushes back as a real one would.
  • No multiple choice, and no question bank that circulates online.

Technical roles get the same depth.

Engineering and data roles design systems, write code and query data, on problems drawn from the role rather than puzzles.

  • System design on a whiteboard, with the constraints of the role.
  • Code, web code and SQL questions alongside the written ones.
  • The candidate's work opens read-only in the same tools for your team.

Every skill scored, with its reason.

You see who meets your line at a glance, with a score for each skill and the reason behind it. Your team can change any score.

Results · one candidate
One candidate's result: 92%, Tier 1, meets the 70% line, with the time taken and every question answered, and the choice to view the attempt, re-evaluate, reject or shortlist

Questions people ask us.

How long does it take to create an assessment?

About 5 to 10 minutes from a job description. You can read and edit every question before you send it.

Which roles does it work for?

Any role where the work can be shown: sales, support, marketing, finance, operations, recruiting, design and engineering. Each question uses the situations and data of that role.

Is it multiple choice?

No. Candidates do the work, and each answer is scored by skill with the reason for the score.

Can candidates use AI?

Only in an AI-assisted assessment, which you choose. Then you see how they worked with the assistant.
