Contact Tracer Test
The Contact Tracer Test is an online pre-employment screening tool designed to evaluate medical services and administrative applicants for roles responsible for tracking and recording infectious disease exposure. Taking around one hour to complete, this two-part online assessment combines an untimed 14-trait personality inventory with a 44-item mental ability test covering verbal, numerical, and abstract reasoning. It looks beyond basic resumes to help employers identify conscientious, highly reliable, and empathetic candidates who can work independently and maintain accurate records.
