TestGorilla ranks first because it covers most screening needs for non-specialist roles and lets a team start without paying. The free Assessments plan gives 10 credits a month, five essential tests with unlimited use (problem solving, communication, time management, a Big 5 personality test and motivation), resume scoring and qualifying questions that filter candidates before they start. Core, from $215 per month per account on annual billing, opens the full library of 350+ tests, video questions and custom questions from a shared credit pool. Plus, from $520 per month, adds the AI interview library, job simulations, custom tests and coding challenges, ID verification, removal of TestGorilla branding and ATS and API integrations with Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, BambooHR and Ashby. Anti-cheating tools such as webcam snapshots, disabled copy and paste and full-screen mode are listed across plans. The main limit is that integrations sit on the higher tier, so connected hiring workflows cost more than the entry price suggests.
