Time sensitive

Well I want to believe the time set was handled with real time settings because it was pretty fast plus most of the test questions had to be read out loud because well for me I wasn’t able to comprehend most of the logical questions reading it in my head. The interface was easy going and the experience is really user friendly.

It may not generate work for us, but we gain experience conducting this type of survey.

The surveys are incredible. The truth is that they are quite useful and self-constructive. I feel they could improve on the topics of the questions, but everything else is very good.

Avoid!

Avoid!
I have tested the assessment process for a reservation role tourism sector.
Only 17 applicants and for such a small amount HR is using this process was not good.
Test Gorilla is from Holland so they have other rules and collect a lot of data which is different for example in the UK.
It starts with the “ diversity inclusion “ questions including DOB. This leads quickly to age discrimination simply not ok. Asking for the full address is not ok because of privacy.
The main questions are very random not one for the sector and tourism can be more specific from geographic to more travel related.
During the assessment you lose interest quickly or a waste of my time thought and I don’t want to work for this company!
The people who create those questions have not explored industries enough.
The other thing is people do not believe in being tested with irrelevant questions.
Really disappointed but it’s mainly created by and for millennials.
GenZ will not put up with it and hopefully they have better ideas.

We're sorry to hear that this was your experience, and we appreciate you sharing your candid feedback. It sounds like you have some serious concerns about the assessment, and we want to address them.

We can assure you that our tests are designed to be a fair and unbiased way to assess a candidate's skills, not to discriminate. Our assessments are intended to be used as one part of a multifaceted recruitment process, not as a standalone measure. Employers use our assessments to get a fairer view of a candidate's skills. The decision to ask for personal information like age or address is made by the hiring company, and we recommend reaching out to them directly with your concerns about the hiring process.

We take great care to ensure our tests are relevant to the job. Our content is developed in conjunction with subject-matter experts and vetted with various sources, including industry manuals and official documentation. We also advocate that customers choose the tests most relevant to the particular job role they're hiring for.

We understand that you felt the test was a waste of your time. Our assessments are designed to be short and efficient while maintaining scientific rigor. The goal is to help you showcase your strengths and skills in a way that might not be apparent on a resume or in a traditional interview.

We value your feedback and will use it to improve the job seeker experience. Do consider reaching out with anything else you would like to share, our team values all the feedback we receive.

Highly deceptive pricing model with the impression of monthly plans only to insist on annual with no ability to cancel. Beware of the much smaller font size used pointing this out.

We're sorry to hear about your experience. We aim for full transparency in all our dealings, and we clearly state on our pricing and checkout pages that our plans are an annual commitment, with the option to pay in monthly installments. We also send renewal reminders before the renewal date to ensure our customers have enough time to cancel. If there's anything else we can do to help, please feel free to reach out to our customer success team.

We're sorry to hear that you're unhappy with your subscription. We understand your frustration regarding the annual commitment and payments. Our Starter plan is a one-year commitment, and while we offer the convenience of monthly installments, it is not a month-to-month subscription. We also send out renewal reminders in advance so customers have ample time to cancel before their plan renews. If you'd like to discuss your specific situation, please reach out to our customer success team for support.

TestGorilla is the worst company on the market providing assessment for hiring process. Their customer service team is a nightmare to deal with.

I don’t recommend using TestGorilla for your business. Hackerrank and other testing platforms are much better than this platform.

Test Gorrilla is an unethical business, only care about money.

Our goal is to help businesses make better, skills-based hiring decisions. While we believe our platform is a powerful tool for this purpose, we respect that you may have found other platforms to be a better fit for your needs.

We also send renewal reminders in advance to provide ample time for cancellation. If you would like to discuss your specific situation, please feel free to reach out to our customer success team for support.

Misleading Subscription Practices – Beware

We used TestGorilla for its assessments, which are decent overall—the platform is reasonably user-friendly, and the tests themselves are fine for basic screening.

However, the subscription and billing model is completely predatory. There is no option for monthly billing—only annual subscriptions, which auto-renew without clear reminders. When we tried to cancel, their system threw errors, and despite contacting support on the same day the renewal charge went through, they refused to issue a refund.

This kind of rigid, opaque billing policy is unacceptable, especially for a SaaS company. Charging hundreds or thousands with no refund recourse (even within hours of renewal) shows a lack of integrity. It feels like they rely on people forgetting or running into technical issues in order to secure another year of fees.

The product might be passable, but the lack of transparency and fairness around billing is a deal-breaker. Proceed with caution—or look elsewhere if you value flexible, customer-friendly service.

Unethical Auto-Renewal and Refusal to Refund

We had a deeply disappointing experience with TestGorilla.

Our annual subscription ($990) was auto-renewed without any clear notice, and we couldn’t access our account due to a login issue. As a result, we were unable to cancel on time.

We contacted support immediately after the charge, explained the situation, and asked for a refund. Despite the obvious context and our clean payment history, we received a generic refusal citing their “no refund” policy.

Their support team acknowledged the issue but refused to take responsibility. Even though they advertise fairness and transparency, in reality, they enforce rigid policies and ignore reasonable customer concerns.

If you’re a business looking for a reliable and ethical service — think twice before committing to TestGorilla. Once they get your money, don’t expect flexibility, fairness, or customer care.

We regret using this platform and strongly discourage others from doing the same.

We understand that an unexpected auto-renewal can be frustrating, especially when combined with technical issues. We want to be as clear and transparent as possible about our billing policies.

Our plans are an annual commitment. To help prevent unwanted renewals, we send reminders starting two months before the renewal date. We also aim to make our terms and conditions clear at the time of signup.

If there's anything we can do to assist with your account, please reach out to our team. We wish you the best.
