Assess candidates in the language they think in — Telugu

Your strongest field-sales candidate in Guntur may never have sat an English exam. Kaairo runs your case studies, situational judgement tests and MCQs in Telugu — native script or Roman — while your hiring team reads every score, rationale and report in English.

What a Telugu assessment looks like on Kaairo

The candidate picks the script

At the start of the test, each candidate chooses Telugu script or Roman Telugu — the language in English letters, as it's commonly typed on phones. Instructions and navigation render in Telugu too.

You write it once, in English

Author the case study, SJT or MCQ in English. Kaairo's AI translation produces the Telugu version in both scripts — no translation vendors, no bilingual reviewers, no launch delay.

Mixed answers score fairly

Candidates can answer in Telugu, in English, or hop between the two mid-sentence — none of it costs marks.

Your panel reads English

Scores, per-competency rationales and reports all come back in English, so anyone on the hiring panel can review a Telugu attempt without speaking a word of it.

WHY TELUGU

Hire the person who can do the job, not the one who can describe it in English

For field sales, retail, customer service, pharma field force and agri-inputs teams across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, the working language is Telugu. Test in it.

01

One bar across two states

Run the same role on identical Telugu assessments in Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam and Guntur — and compare every candidate on one consistent 0–100 scale.

02

Stop screening out your best sellers

A pharma rep who wins over doctors in Telugu can fail an English SJT on vocabulary alone. Test the selling judgement in the language the selling actually happens in.

03

Realistic scenarios for field roles

Agri-inputs counters, pharmacy visits, retail floors — the customer conversation is in Telugu, so the situational judgement test should be too.

04

Zero translation overhead

AI translation from your English original means no vendors, no review cycles with bilingual staff, and no waiting weeks to open a Telugu role.

05

The whole experience, not just the questions

Test instructions and navigation appear in Telugu as well, so a candidate is never stranded in English menus around a Telugu test.

06

Evidence behind every score

Each candidate gets a 0–100 competency-based score with a written rationale per competency — in English — so shortlist decisions are defensible, not gut calls.

HOW IT WORKS

From English draft to Telugu assessment in three steps

No translators on your side at any point — you author, enable and review entirely in English.

STEP 01

Author in English

Write the assessment in English as you would for any role — for an NBFC collections team in Vijayawada, that might be an SJT built around a missed-EMI call.

STEP 02

Enable Telugu

Switch on Telugu for the assessment. AI translation generates the native-script and Roman versions, and you choose the register — formal suits a collections script, conversational a retail counter.

STEP 03

Review in English

Candidates take it in Telugu; your team receives 0–100 scores, per-competency rationales and reports in English, comparable across every applicant in the batch.

BUILT FOR FAIR SCREENING

Judged on thinking, not on English

The point of a Telugu assessment is a fairer read on ability — the scoring and integrity controls are built for exactly that.

Reasoning over grammar

A strong answer is a strong answer — the score follows the judgement in it, whether it arrived in Telugu, English or half-and-half.

AI proctoring available

Add AI proctoring to a Telugu assessment the same way you would to an English one — the integrity layer does not change with the language.

Transparent competency scoring

Every result is a 0–100 competency-based score with a written rationale per competency, so you can see why a candidate scored what they did.

One platform, self-serve

Published INR pricing with self-serve signup, and the same platform covers hiring and L&D — Telugu written assessments are available to every organisation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which written formats run in Telugu?

Case Studies, Situational Judgement Tests and Multiple Choice Questions — the full written set — all run in Telugu, and every organisation on Kaairo gets them. Language support isn't a tier or an add-on.

We hire in both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Do we need two assessments?

One is enough. The same Telugu assessment runs identically for a candidate in Hyderabad and one in Vijayawada, on the same rubric and the same 0–100 scale — a collections SJT scores the same judgement wherever the applicant sits. You'd only split assessments if the roles themselves differ.

Is Roman Telugu really usable for a full test?

Yes — it's a complete, first-class rendition, not a fallback. Every enabled assessment is generated in both native Telugu script and Roman, and each candidate picks whichever they read faster when they begin.

Will an answer that's half English hurt a candidate's score?

No. Mixing is normal and costs nothing — a candidate can lay out a collections plan in Telugu and keep the loan terms in English, and the score tracks the plan.

Does the AI voice interview speak Telugu?

Not today. AI voice interviews are available in English and Hindi, and Telugu voice — like the other Indian languages — is on the roadmap. Everything written on this page is live now.

What's involved in switching a role to Telugu?

Enabling it on the assessment — that's it. You author in English, the AI translation builds both Telugu renditions and the interface, and you pick a formal or conversational register. Nothing else changes on your side.

Our panel is English-only. Can they still review fairly?

Yes — they never see anything else. Scores, per-competency rationales and full reports arrive in English however the candidate answered, so a Telugu batch reviews exactly like an English one.

What about candidates who'd rather test in another language?

Telugu is one of eight Indian languages Kaairo supports for written assessments — Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati and Bengali are the others. Each candidate chooses their language when they begin; the full details live on the multilingual assessments page.
