Yes, it was basic. And self-esteem head-pats don't do much for me except arouse a feeling of being patronized and raise suspicions.

All-in-all, this doesn't seem to do the clients justice if they don't throughly test to see what prospective candidates are made of by pushing their real-world problem-solving abilities, intuition, knowledge, and expertise.

My conclusion is to dissuade the use of TB as a candidate or as a hiring manager.

If you mean the online quiz, that is a screening funnel for the video interview, which (as of some years ago, don't know about now) was fairly involved.

The online quiz itself wasn't difficult if you knew what you were doing, but it seemed well designed to discern clueful candidates from those who needed to brush up. I know people who took it and didn't pass.
