What happens to your application: test receives what you send here (your name, email, phone if given, your resume and your answers). If you apply with your Orbit account, only the resume you choose is shared; nothing else from your Orbit account (practice, interview help, LinkedIn, other documents) is ever shown to test. Orbit's AI reads your resume to sort applications and to explain how it matches the job's requirements; it doesn't use your name, age, gender, photo or other personal traits, and it never rejects anyone. A person at test reviews every application and makes every decision. If you aren't selected, your application is deleted 12 months after that decision, or 12 months after the job closes if no decision was made. You can ask for it to be deleted at any time from the status page linked in your confirmation email; it is deleted within 30 days of your request.
