Written by Pernilla Ahl

What the Ashby Integration Does

The Ashby integration lets you add Alva assessments to an Ashby job, send them from the Ashby pipeline, and read the results without leaving Ashby.

Before You Start

The integration has to be connected first. See Setting up the Ashby integration.

Adding Alva Assessments to an Ashby Job

  1. Create a job

  2. Add assessments

    1. Click Interview Plan in the left panel

    2. Click Add activity on the stage you want to add the assessment to

    3. Select Alva Labs from the integration section

    4. Select the assessment type as needed. Here you have the options of choosing

      1. Psychometric test profiles (in which case both personality & logic tests) will be sent out

      2. Logic test only

      3. Personality test only (in which case the personality profile will be the organisational default profile)

      4. If you want to set up interviews via Alva, you can also select from Alva interview templates

Automating Test Sendouts

Once you add the assessment (if you don’t see this view directly, click Modify assessments), open the Automation tab and select Automate on stage entry

With this, when you move candidates to the respective stage, the assessment will be triggered automatically.

Sending Out Assessments One by One

In the candidate pipeline, move the candidates to the relevant stage

Click Start assessment.

If you started a psychometric assessment, Alva will send out the test invitations and administer the tests.

If you started an interview you will see a View in Alva Labs link, which will take you to the interview scorecard, where you can conduct the interview

Results

Once the results are received, you can view them in Ashby. By clicking View in Alva Labs, you can see detailed test results.
​
The main score on each card shows the total score for that specific assessment. For psychometrics, this reflects the combined scores of the logic and personality tests. For interviews, it shows the respective scores.
​
The Role Fit score displays the combined scores of all assessments completed up to that point.
