On July 15, 2025, ETS—through its India-based subsidiary Wheebox—unveiled the latest edition of the Global Employability Test (GET), signaling a renewed commitment to quantifying job readiness in an era where credentials alone no longer guarantee career success.
GET 2025 is a 60-minute, adaptive, online assessment designed to evaluate a candidate’s readiness for the workforce using a multidimensional framework. The test measures five critical dimensions: Cognitive Ability, Communication Skills, Future Skills in AI, Cybersecurity, Financial and Digital Literacy, Core Functional Knowledge, and Workforce Behavioral Traits. Each test taker receives a personalized Candidate Development Report that includes instant scoring and benchmarking against a global peer cohort—making employability not just measurable, but immediately actionable.
The latest edition features a more streamlined experience while maintaining the rigorous standards expected of ETS, the global nonprofit renowned for assessments like TOEFL and GRE. Behind the test’s design is a psychometric engine that dynamically adapts to user responses in real time—offering both institutions and students a nuanced and personalized diagnostic of career readiness.
Originally launched as the Wheebox National Employability Test (WNET), the assessment has evolved over 12 years into a globally validated employability benchmark, administered across thousands of higher education campuses in multiple countries. Built on Wheebox’s proprietary technology and informed by research in workforce trends, GET reflects ETS’s long-term strategy to expand beyond academic assessments into the broader talent ecosystem.
GET 2025 is not just a test—it’s the result of a cross-sector collaboration with stakeholders such as the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), Association of Indian Universities (AIU), and Taggd. This coalition ensures that the test remains aligned with evolving industry needs and scalable for deployment across diverse institutional environments.
“GET 2025 is a practical tool for young professionals to assess where they stand in today’s competitive job market,” said Nirmal Singh, CEO of Wheebox ETS. “Launching this on World Youth Skills Day underscores our belief that employability must be seen as a measurable and improvable metric—especially in economies undergoing rapid digital and demographic transitions.”
With online delivery, flexible scheduling, and intuitive reporting, GET 2025 positions itself as both a strategic resource for institutions and a feedback-rich experience for learners. As global labor markets continue to shift towards skills-first hiring, assessments like GET could emerge as critical infrastructure for a future-ready talent pipeline.
Registrations are now open for academic institutions and skilling organizations seeking to participate in the 2025 edition.
