Consisting of a series of multiple-choice questions, the Linux skills test measures candidates against several key areas, such as their understanding of core Linux commands, coding and debugging, and bash scripting.
The test is best used in the early stages of the recruitment process, to help screen out candidates who are unsuitable for the position. A candidate who performs well on the Linux test has demonstrated they may have the level of skills and proficiency required to match your job requirements.
Linux is one of the most widely used open-source operating systems, with the majority of the webpages on the internet being powered by servers running Linux. Configuring Linux and maintaining the system can be challenging, and requires a specific set of skills and knowledge.
The Linux test identifies candidates who possess the necessary knowledge and skill set for positions that require Linux expertise, such as a Linux developer or Linux administrator. This ensures that you only shortlist the most capable candidates for your position.

When hiring for a role that requires Linux expertise, determining a candidate's level of knowledge and proficiency in Linux can be challenging. This can make distinguishing between candidates hard, particularly if you receive a high volume of applicants with a similar level of experience and qualifications.
Neuroworx's Linux test helps solve this problem by validating a candidate's level of knowledge and competency using Linux. The test is simple to administer to a large number of candidates during the pre-screening stages of the recruitment process, providing you with a set of easy-to-read results that allow you to compare candidates based on their strengths and weaknesses.
This allows hiring decisions to be made based on test performance data, increasing the efficiency and speed of the recruitment process, as well as the likelihood that you select the right candidates.
The Linux test could be useful for the following jobs:
Results for the Linux Test along with other assessments the candidate takes will be compiled to produce a candidate report.
The report is automatically generated and available both online and as a downloadable pdf so they can be shared with other team members and employees alike.
In Neuroworx's Linux test, candidates will need to answer a range of questions targeting an intermediate level of proficiency, from knowledge of fundamental Linux concepts to troubleshooting and debugging.
The test is designed to indicate how well a candidate understands Linux based on a final test score, which can then be compared to the scores of other applicants.
The multiple-choice questions consist of one correct answer and two to four distractors. The distractors are mostly generic mistakes or misconceptions, which makes the test challenging and helps measure a candidate's proficiency more accurately.
During the development process, the test was rigorously analysed to maximise reliability and validity in line with industry best practices. It was created and tested by programmers and psychometric experts, and field-tested with a representative sample of job applicants who have a range of Linux experience, just like you might find in a talent pool.
Each test is reviewed by a panel of individuals representing diverse backgrounds to check for any sensitivity, fairness, face validity and accessibility issues. This ensures each programmer has a fair chance of demonstrating their true level of Linux proficiency and feels the test is of high quality.
Our programming tests are monitored to ensure they are up-to-date and optimised for performance.
