How to Enable Tab Switch Detection
Learn what tab switch detection does and enable it to monitor when candidates switch away from the interview page.
What is Tab Switch Detection?
Tab switch detection monitors when candidates leave the interview page during a live interview. It tracks how many times a candidate switches tabs and provides warnings when detection occurs.
Tab switch details are recorded in the workspace and include question-wise analytics that show which questions candidates switched tabs on most frequently. The feature helps maintain interview integrity by tracking candidate attention and engagement throughout the assessment.
