Recruitment Test Center Problems

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what would be the best way to approach this problem.

We are attempting to use Moodle to control recruitment/application screening tests. As many as 20 people may be logging in at the same time and taking these tests. We don't want people having to make accounts to take these tests, because many of them will never use the system again. We'd like them to be automatically enrolled as some sort of Guest or Applicant and be able to take their exam and have the results emailed to the appropriate people with as little interaction as possible from the user or facilitator.

It is not important for us to store the results, only email them for application processing.

We are planning on making question #1 'What is your name?' for obvious reasons. smile

Ideal situation - applicant clicks on a link on their desktop, it goes straight to the test in moodle, they finish it and are off the computer.

Any ideas on the best way to accomplish this sort of thing? I get the feeling we may have to code in a solution by hand here since we cannot use the Guest functionality.

Thanks!

You could try using the third-party questionnaire or feedback modules.

There is really no way to let a guest user take a quiz. Instead, you would have to create a special jobapplicant user account, or something like that, and sit the applicant down at a browser already logged in with that account.

The quiz will not email a studnet their responses. Instead you will have to manually go to the review page and save it, then email it to them, so something like that.
