Paper and pencil exams better than online exams in case of aptitude exams.

 Taking B.E freshers, every year the count increases exponentially due to the increase in number of colleges. Ultimately recruitment process for a mass crowd is really a tedious work for any company. Initially the companies post the vacancies through internet in job portals. Even though a candidate who doesn't meet the eligibility criteria will apply for the post through online. So junk data fall into companies database. Then on the day of recruitment event company needs to handle a crowd for initial level of screening.

So to solve that companies choose either paper and pencil or online exams. In case of online exam company should arrange many computers in a place or ask the candidates to take from their own place. Arranging computers in a place and organizing an event is costly.

If candidates are asked to take online exam from their own place its hard to manage in many ways.It starts from registration. Although the registration and steps to be followed to take the exam is clearly mentioned, the candidates will start posting asking queries without reading any details. If queries are not answered, the candidate comments the company in a wrong manner. So on seeing one candidate posting in such a manner many get motivated and start abusing the company. The internet connection will not be evenly good for every candidate. Sometimes there may be a power cut or browser crash. The exam should sustain all such problems. The bandwidth cost to deliver these many exams in a single shot will also be high. Communication to candidates via online to these many candidates is really a tough task. The candidate turn up for next step of interview is also a problem.

So rather than online exam, test delivery through paper and pencil mode will be cost effective and also an simplified process. With SkillRack's quickscore product, the automated scoring for a bulk made it more efficient and time saving. Candidates are given question paper and answer sheets were the correct option will be shaded by them. Even if 3000 turn up in a recruitment event, the scoring part will not exceed more than 90 minutes. Finally the companies will not feel the pain and the process goes smooth.
