Using a test that you don't have the knowledge to assess is unlikely to raise the bar. It's much more likely to just mean you hire the wrong person.

If you really need to hire someone you can't assess internally then you should seek help with hiring them. This is one reason why networking and mentors are so helpful. Other people can help with this sort of problem.
