Assessments for Non-Tech Roles
Introduction: Skills Matter in Every Role
Talent assessments are often associated with technical hiring—but that’s a narrow view. In reality, assessments can be incredibly effective across non-technical roles, too.
From sales and customer service to healthcare, HR, and finance—structured, role-relevant assessments help businesses evaluate candidate capability faster, without relying on guesswork.
The Misconception
Many teams assume assessments only work for coding or IT roles. Why?
Because most platforms offer prebuilt test banks that lean heavily toward tech.
But ACHNET’s iJupiter™ changes that. It uses AI to generate role-specific talent assessments for any industry, based on the job description and skills required—whether that’s retail operations or regulatory compliance.
Non-Tech Roles That Benefit from Assessments
Here are just a few non-tech functions where talent assessments shine:
Customer Support
- Communication and listening scenarios
- Product troubleshooting basics
- Policy or escalation understanding
Sales
- Objection handling
- CRM usage knowledge
- Industry-specific product training
Healthcare & Pharma
- Terminology and compliance
- Protocol handling
- Territory-based product knowledge
Finance & Insurance

Why It Works
For non-tech roles, assessments offer:
- Structured screening beyond a resume
- Consistent evaluation across applicants
- Speed for frontline or high-volume roles
- Objective scoring, especially important in roles with soft skill components

- Delivered via email or mobile-friendly link
