Inrecruiting provides the possibility to submit questionnaires to candidates.
It is possible to create questionnaires with matrix, single-answer and multiple-answer questions.
For each type of question, the score achieved is calculated according to different methods: here are some examples.
COUNTING RESULTS MATRIX QUESTIONS
Calculation example:
Given the following weights
Column a | 0 |
Column b | 50 |
Column c | 100 |
Row 1 | 100 |
Row 2 | 100 |
Row 3 | 100 |
Give the following answers:
a | b | c | |
1 | x | ||
2 | x | ||
3 | x |
The sum of the products of the value corresponding to the row and column of the answers will be calculated.
Thus:
A1+B2+C3 -> (0x100)+(50X100)+(100x100)= 0+5000+10000=15000
Now we need to add up the product of all the possible answers in the matrix, so:
A1+A2+A3+B1+B2+B3+C1+C2+C3 -> (0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)+ (0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)+
(0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)= 45000
Now simply divide the "sum of answers" by the "total sum of weights" 15000/45000= 0.3333
In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.333 -> 33.33%.
COUNTING RESULTS SINGLE SELECTION QUESTION
The score is awarded according to the set weight divided by the maximum weight.
Calculation example.
Given the following weights
A: 0
B: 50
C :100
Considering that the candidate answered B, divide the answer weight by the sum of the answer weights.
Thus:
B/(A+B+C) -> 50/(0+50+100) = 50/150= 0.3333
In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.333 -> 33.33%.
COUNTING RESULTS OF MULTIPLE SELECTION QUESTION
The system performs a calculation using a weighted average
Calculation example:
Given the following weights
A: 0
B: 50
C:100
Given the following answers:
B and C
(B+C)/(A+B+C) -> (50+100)/(0+50+100) = 150/150= 1
In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 1 -> 100%.
If the questionnaire consists of one page with several questions of different types, the calculation of the result will be as follows:
CALCULATION OF THE PAGE VALUE
A weighted average is used to count the page result.
Given the following weights to the questions on the page:
Question 1: 20
Question 2: 30
Assuming the candidate scored the following marks in the various questions:
Result question 1: 0.33
Result question 2: 0.66
For each question add the marks obtained multiplied by the weight of the question, dividing the result by the total sum of the weights.
Thus:
(Result question 1 X Weight question 1)+(Result question 2 X Weight question 2)/(Weight question 1+ Weight question 2)
(0.33 X 20)+(0.66 X 30)/20+30=0.53333333
In the case of a questionnaire with only one page, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.53333 -> 53.33%.
Finally, it is possible to create a questionnaire with several pages to which different weights can be assigned. In this case, the system will follow the following calculation method:
CALCULATION OF THE VALUE OF A MULTI-PAGE QUESTIONNAIRE
A weighted average is used to count the result of the questionnaire.
Give the following weights to the pages in the questionnaire:
Page 1: 20
Page 2: 30
Given the following scores for the various questions:
Page 1: 0.33
Page 2: 0.66
For each page, add the marks obtained multiplied by the weight of the page, dividing the result by the total sum of the weights.
Thus:
(Result page 1 X Weight page 1)+(Result page 2 X Weight page 2)/(Weight page 1+ Weight page 2)
(0.33 X 20)+(0.66 X 30)/20+30=0.53333333
We will now convert on a percentage basis, so 0.533333 > 53.33%.
