Lesson Desk enables you to guide employees through a comprehensive training journey, with each distinct phase addressing a key area of the recruitment and product training process.
Lesson Desk’s screening features allow you to measure how suitable a candidate is for a role, based on the personality characteristics or cognitive abilities that the role requires.
The screening process enables you to evaluate the cognitive traits and aptitude of a candidate that are difficult to extract from a résumé or interview alone.
