Our Quality

At Kudos QA we have a large team of highly experienced test leads and testers with years of experience in QA. For us to ensure that this quality is maintained to the highest standard for all our testers we take onboard, we implement a very tight recruitment process.

Each applicant has an initial phone call with our recruitment specialist. If they meet our requirements at Kudos QA, the applicant is offered the opportunity to undergo a practical test which is monitored by our recruitment specialist.

Once their practical test has been completed, all potential issues within the playtest are reviewed by our QA Manager and several team leads. If successful, the applicant will then be enrolled in our three-day intensive screening and training programme where they are further assessed. Should they meet our standards over the 3 days, they then become part of our Kudos QA family.

We take the quality of our team very seriously. Alongside the constant internal upskilling and training, which is also supported by our own internal Wiki ‘The Knowledge’, our recruitment and training process enables us to take on only the best testers, providing you with the most up to date, exceptional service there is out there.

Our Ethos: Work hard, play hard. Treat people as you would wish to be treated.
