K-12 Applicant Screening Tools to Surface the Best Teachers, Fast

We know each position requires something different from candidates, and applicant screening tests aren’t “one size fits all.” The Screening Assessments in Frontline Recruiting & Hiring include specific tests to help you find the right candidate for every job type.

TeacherFit: Identify outstanding teachers
TeacherFit SE: Identify qualified special education teachers
TeacherFit Urban: Identify great teachers for urban schools
JobFit: Identify the best candidates for your support staff
AdminFit: Identify winning administrators

Our prescreening assessments are based on research conducted by John Arnold, Ph.D., of Wayne State University, and Neal Schmitt, Ph.D., of Michigan State University. The assessments work within Frontline Recruiting & Hiring to give you additional insight into each applicant’s suitability, weed out poor candidates, and highlight top performers with the most potential to succeed in your district.

In addition, you can validate the assessments’ results by gauging teacher success with post-hire evaluation forms to assess employees after six and twelve months. These forms enable you to gauge how well employees are meeting the criteria scored in their initial assessment, so you can compare each employee’s pre- and post-hire performance.

The reports are available at the individual applicant level, in a list view for easier comparison, and via analytical reporting across the district for more strategic decision making.

Not with Frontline! While some other vendors charge applicants a fee to see the results of their assessment, with our prescreening assessments applicants are never asked to purchase anything or make any payment after completing the test.

Our assessments have been shown to treat all populations fairly. The TeacherFit assessment has been in use since 2008 and has been completed by hundreds of thousands of candidates across the country.

Our end goal is the same as yours — putting the best educators in classrooms. We know districts have to make a case for each tool they bring in, so we’re sensitive to district budgets. While some companies charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for the same type of product, Frontline offers a significant return on investment and an affordable, scalable pricing system based on the size of your district.

As part of Frontline Recruiting & Hiring, our prescreening assessments are designed with K-12 school districts in mind, offering a simple-to-use product that’s just what you need without being bogged down with unnecessary features you can’t use. They are driven by university-backed research and were made specifically to help you identify the best employees for your schools.
