how AI grading works

Five dimensions. Claude grades.

Every scenario is evaluated by Claude AI against an expert solution path written by working IT practitioners. The five rubric dimensions are visible while you work and on your replay. Recruiters see the full transcript, every keystroke, and the AI's reasoning for each sub-score — not a single magic number.
