Configure the Use of Assessments


The configuration in this section applies to integrations with assessment providers such as Bryq, as well as integrations that were set up through the Dayforce Software Partners Program (DSPP).


Setup the integration between Dayforce and Bryq as follows:

  1. Go to System Admin > External Integrations.

  2. Click Add.

  3. In the External Integration Group list, click Assessment.

6. In the Tokens section, enter the integration tokens provided to you by Bryq.

πŸ“Œ If you are adding a new provider, you need to specify the provider name, provider description, provider reference, and your provider's end-point URL. You must also provide the Dayforce end-point URL to your provider. See External Integration Tokens.

Note: Clients can integrate with only one provider of the same group at the same time.

7. Click Save.

Then, you need to assign the necessary user roles access to the assessment functionality in Recruiting:

  1. Go to System Admin > Roles.

  2. Select the role that you want to assign access to.

  3. In the Features tab, assign one or both of the following role features:

  • Recruiting > Recruiting > Actions > Send Assessment: Enables the Send Assessment option in the Screen drop-down list in the Candidates tab, and in candidate profiles under Screen Candidate in the Actions menu. This option allows you to send assessments for job requisitions configured to use the Post Application Email - Manual delivery method for assessments. For requisitions configured to use the Post Application Email - Automatic delivery method, Dayforce displays the Resend Assessment option instead of Send Assessment.

  • Recruiting > Recruiting > Candidates > Assessment Tab: Enables access to the Assessments tab in candidate profiles.

4. In the Authorizations tab, assign the Recruiting: Additional Job Requisition Assessment access authorization. Use this authorization to control the ability for users to view, add, edit, and delete assessment assignments when creating new job requisitions. This authorization also controls access to the information in the Assessments tab of candidate profiles. See Recruiting: Additional Job Requisition Assessment.

5. Click Save.

Add the Web Services Role Feature

πŸ“ŒBryq will need the following information from Dayforce:

  • Username: Name of the Dayforce user dedicated to Web Services calls

  • Password: Password of the specific user

You must add Web Services feature access to the default role of the user account in order to use the Dayforce Web Services. At a minimum, the Web Services role feature must be added, as well as the Read Data sub-feature under Web Services.

It is advisable to add the other role sub-features in the Web Services feature: Explorer, Notification Status, Notification Subscriptions, and PutWorkflowValidationAction, which are required for the role to perform actions such as reading and updating data.

To add the Web Services feature to a role, take the following steps:

  1. Navigate to System Admin > Roles.

  2. Select the default role associated with the user.

  3. Click the Features sub-tab.

  4. Locate and expand the HCM Anywhere section.

  5. Expand Web Services.

  6. Selecting the checkbox "Patch/Post Candidate Assessment Data" is sufficient.

Configure Integration Mapping for Jobs

After configuring the integration with Bryq, you can create mappings for specific jobs from Recruiting Setup > Integration Mapping.

πŸ“ŒRole feature access: Recruiting Setup > Integration Mapping

Configure Assessment Mapping

In Recruiting Setup > Integration Mapping, in the Assessment Mapping tab, you can map an assessment to a specific job so that it's populated by default in the Job Requisition form and the Add New Requisition wizard when you create requisitions for that job.

You can define how the assessment will be delivered to candidates: embedded in the job application, or automatically or manually after they apply. These methods are shown in the Delivery Method column.

To map an assessment to a specific job:

1. Go to Recruiting Setup > Integration Mapping and click the Assessment Mapping tab.

2. Click Add.

3. For each column, click the field to expand the drop-down list and then select an option as follows:

  • A. Job: Select a job that you want to send candidates an assessment for when they apply. This list displays the jobs that were configured for your organization in the Org Setup > Jobs and Job Assignments feature.

  • B. Assessment: Select the assessment that you want to send candidates when they apply for the specified job.

    πŸ“ŒIf you don't see the assessment that you are looking for in this list, click Update Assessment List in the toolbar to retrieve an updated list from your assessment provider.

  • C. Delivery Method: Select the delivery method for the assessment. The following options are available:

    • Embedded in Application: The assessment is included as a part of Dayforce process. Candidates are required to complete the assessment prior to submitting their application.

    • Post Application Email - Manual: The assessment is sent to candidates via email after they complete their application. The assessment must be sent manually from the Recruiting feature.

    • Post Application Email - Automatic: Candidates are asked to open the assessment after they complete their application, and Dayforce also automatically sends an email with the assessment link. You can also manually send the assessment again from Recruiting.

4. Click Save.

πŸ’‘You can delete a mapping by selecting the row and clicking Delete in the toolbar.

Assessments Tab

πŸ“Œ To view the Assessments tab, your user role must be assigned access to the Assessment Tab sub-feature under Recruiting > Candidates in the Features tab of System Admin > Roles. Further, to use the functionality described in this topic, your user role must be assigned the necessary Recruiting: Additional Job Requisition Assessment access in the Authorizations tab of System Admin > Roles.

If the candidate has completed one or more assessments as part of their job application, Dayforce displays the results in the Assessments tab in their job application profile. You can click the title of each assessment to view the details:

πŸ“Œ The Detailed Result bars in Dayforce use a 0-100 scale. To align with this, Bryq's Fit Score (0-10) is scaled to 0-100, allowing for a clear visual representation of the candidate's fit for the role within Dayforce.

πŸ”— Click on the "Results" link to be redirected to Bryq, where you can log in and view a detailed breakdown and interpretation of the results.

πŸ”— Click on the "Anonymized Results" link for an instant overview of the Bryq results in an anonymized format. This link can be shared internally without the need to log in to Bryq.

πŸ’‘ If your candidate is above average for the position, then the Recommended tag is displayed next to the candidate as seen below.

You can click Print in the tab toolbar to generate a printed version of the summary. To ensure that the printed summary is rendered correctly, you must configure your browser settings.

To ensure that the assessment summary is rendered correctly in the printout, you must configure the print options for your preferred browser as follows:

  • Chrome: In the browser options, click Print to open the Print dialog box. Expand the More settings section, and then select the Background graphics checkbox under Options.

  • Firefox: In the browser options, click Print to open the print dialog box, and then click Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box. In the Format & Options tab, select the Print Background (colors & images) checkbox, and then click OK to apply the setting.

  • Internet Explorer: In the browser options, select Print > Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box. Select the Print Background Colors and Images checkbox, and then click OK to apply the setting.
