# What question types does Xobin support?

Xobin offers a diverse range of question types to help you effectively evaluate candidates across different skills and job roles. Below is a guide to the question types you can use in your assessments.

1. **Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ)**
Traditional multiple-choice questions with a single correct answer.
* Best used for quick assessments of core concepts, factual knowledge, and theoretical understanding.

2. **Weighted MCQ Questions**
Multiple-choice questions where each answer choice is assigned a different point value or weight.
* Best used for evaluating nuanced decision-making, behavioral tendencies, or partial knowledge where some answers are stronger than others.

3. **Multiple Answer Questions (MAQ)**
Questions where candidates can select more than one correct option from the choices provided.
* Best used for multi-variable problem solving and comprehensive knowledge checks.
|| MAQ is currently available exclusively under My Questions.

4. **Subjective Questions**
Open-ended questions that require candidates to provide detailed responses rather than selecting from predefined options. Responses can be submitted in the form of text, audio, video, or code.
* Best used for evaluating communication skills, critical thinking, and a candidate's overall thought process.

5. **Coding Questions**
Programming challenges designed to evaluate software development skills with integrated, real-time code execution and test cases.
* Best used for technical interviews, backend and frontend engineering roles, and assessing hands-on problem-solving abilities.

6. **SQL Questions**
Database-specific challenges where candidates write SQL queries to interact with a simulated database.
* Best used for testing database management, data analysis, and querying skills.

7. **Assignment Questions**
Practical, case-study-based questions where candidates upload files to demonstrate their skills in real-world scenarios.
* Best used for extensive projects, design portfolios, data analysis presentations, or role-specific take-home tasks.

8. **Typing Questions**
Timed text-copying challenges that measure a candidate's real-time typing speed and accuracy.
* Best used for evaluating data entry operators, customer support agents, transcriptionists, and administrative roles where data input speed is essential.

|| Typing questions must be added in an independent section and cannot be mixed with other question types in the same section.
