The Candidate Management view provides real-time visibility into each candidate’s progress during a session. The Status column helps proctors quickly understand what stage a candidate is in and take appropriate actions when needed.

​
Candidate Statuses

Below are the key statuses you will see on the dashboard: Lobby
  • The candidate has joined the session but has not yet been checked in.
  • The candidate is waiting for the proctor to begin the check-in process.
Checked-in
  • The candidate has been successfully verified and checked in by the proctor.
  • They are ready to proceed with the exam.
Exam in Progress
  • The candidate is actively taking the exam.
  • Their progress bar will update as they move through the test.
Paused
  • The candidate’s exam has been temporarily paused.
  • This may happen due to:
    • Proctor intervention
    • Technical issues
    • Review processes (e.g., flagged activity)
Suspended
  • The candidate has been suspended from the exam due to a violation or issue.
  • This action typically requires further review by an administrator.
No Show
  • The candidate did not show up for the exam

​
Additional Indicators

Along with status, you may also see supporting indicators:
  • Step: Shows the candidate’s current stage in the process.
  • Progress bar: Displays how much of the exam has been completed.
  • System notes: May indicate states like Online, Reconnecting, or Under review.

Why Candidate Status Matters

Understanding candidate statuses helps proctors:
  • Monitor exam progress in real time
  • Identify candidates who need attention or intervention
  • Take timely actions such as check-in, pause, resume, or suspend
  • Ensure a smooth and compliant exam experience
Keeping track of these statuses allows you to manage the session efficiently and respond quickly to any issues that arise.
