Tathmini ya Usomaji wa Dijiti ya Northstar Onyesha waajiri kuwa una ujuzi wanaotafuta! Northstar inatoa vyeti hadi 14 ambavyo unaweza kuorodhesha kwenye wasifu wako au wasifu wa dijiti ili kudhibitisha unajua jinsi ya kutumia kompyuta na programu. Teknolojia sasa inahitajika kwa kila kitu kutoka kutafuta kazi, kuomba kazi, na hata kufanya kazi. Waajiri wanataka kuajiri wagombea ambao tayari wana ustadi ambao wanatafuta. How it Works: Tathmini ya Kujifunza kusoma na kuandika ya Northstar ni kati ya maswali 20-45 ambayo yanahitaji kuonyesha ustadi wako. Badala ya chaguo nyingi au kuelezea ujuzi wako wa teknolojia, unaulizwa kutekeleza majukumu ya kawaida kama "songa faili kwenye takataka" au "fungua kivinjari cha wavuti". Ukipata alama 85% au zaidi, unapata cheti ambacho kinathibitisha kuwa wewe ni bwana wa viwango ndani ya tathmini hiyo. Ikiwa hautapata alama 85%, tuko hapa kukusaidia kujifunza, kufanya mazoezi, na kustadi ujuzi! Ili kupokea cheti chako, lazima uchukue tathmini chini ya usimamizi wa mtaalam wa mitihani.
