The ideal candidate is comfortable working with structured data (PDFs, spreadsheets, portals), understands exam workflows (answer key release, objections, revisions, finalization), and can maintain high accuracy under deadlines.
Responsibilities
- Review, validate, and reconcile KMAT answer key documents across multiple paper sets/shifts to ensure correctness and consistency.
- Cross-check question IDs, options, and correct responses against source materials and official references.
- Track and document changes arising from expert reviews, objections/challenges, and final key revisions.
- Prepare and maintain audit-ready logs of updates, versioning, and publication timestamps.
- Coordinate with content/exam teams to resolve discrepancies, missing items, formatting issues, or ambiguous questions.
- Support publication workflows by preparing portal-ready files and ensuring links, labels, and metadata are accurate.
- Assist in drafting candidate-facing notices and instructions (e.g., how to view/download answer keys, objection process steps, timelines).
- Perform quality assurance checks on public postings to confirm correct files are live, accessible, and properly categorized.
- Monitor inbound queries and route issues to the appropriate team while maintaining response SLAs.
- Ensure compliance with internal policies for confidentiality, data handling, and release approvals.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in any discipline; degrees in Education, Statistics, Computer Science, or related fields are a plus.
- 1–3 years of experience in exam operations, education publishing, assessment support, or data QA (freshers with strong skills may be considered).
- Strong attention to detail and ability to detect inconsistencies in large documents and datasets.
- Proficiency with spreadsheets (Excel/Google Sheets) including filters, lookups, conditional formatting, and basic pivot tables.
- Comfort working with PDFs and document tools; ability to compare versions and manage file naming/version control.
- Clear written communication skills for drafting instructions and release notes.
- Ability to work under tight deadlines during peak exam cycles.
- Basic understanding of exam processes (answer key, objections, result compilation) is preferred.
- Integrity and discretion in handling sensitive exam materials.
Benefits
- Competitive salary with performance-based increments.
- Health insurance and wellness support (as applicable).
- Paid time off and holidays aligned with organizational policy.
- Training on assessment workflows, QA practices, and publishing standards.
