What Is the HireVue Digitspan Game?
Learn what the task requires, what the independent practice targets, and why interface familiarity helps.
What It Measures
The primary confirmed ability is working memory. Attention and accurate sequence entry also affect performance as task demands.
Commonly Described Format
Characters appear briefly, usually one at a time, then you recreate the sequence using the available controls.
Why Familiarity Helps
Practice cannot reveal an employer's scoring model, but it can reduce time spent interpreting the interface.
What to Expect During Digitspan Practice
Compare the one-sample demo, full timed practice, and supported independent result summary.
3-minute practice session
Complete as many independent practice sequences as you can before the timer ends.
Numbers and letters
Lower practice levels may use digits, while harder levels can introduce letters or mixed sequences.
Adaptive difficulty
Correct responses can increase sequence demands; incorrect responses move the practice toward an easier task.
Brief feedback during the round
You see Correct or Incorrect, but the full answer is not revealed while the timer is running.
HireVue Digitspan Tips
Chunk the sequence
Group characters into small chunks instead of trying to hold each one as a separate item.
Rehearse silently
Repeat the sequence in your head during the presentation phase without rushing to the keypad.
Use Backspace deliberately
Correct clear mistypes before submission instead of letting an input slip turn into a wrong sequence.
Reset after feedback
Let the previous result go quickly so one missed sequence does not disrupt the next one.
Understanding Your Digitspan Practice Results
Your result summary describes only your performance in this independent practice round. Use it to compare repeated attempts and identify whether recall accuracy, entry pace, or sequence length needs more attention. It is not an official HireVue result and cannot predict a hiring decision.
Recall accuracy
The percentage of submitted sequences reproduced correctly.
Longest correct span
The longest sequence length answered correctly in the round.
Rounds completed
The number of sequences submitted before the timer ended.
Average entry time
Average time from the beginning of the input phase to submission.
Practice results are independent feedback and are not an official HireVue score.

What is the HireVue Digitspan game?
Digitspan is a cognitive game associated with working memory. A sequence is presented and you reproduce it according to the instruction shown. HireVue publicly identifies Working Memory as the specific ability targeted by its Digitspan game.
What does Digitspan assess?
The primary confirmed ability is working memory. Attention, accurate sequence encoding, and controlled input affect how you perform the task, but they should not be presented as separate universal HireVue score categories.
How long is the Digitspan game?
This independent practice round lasts three minutes. HireVue states that each of its games takes only a few minutes, but the exact experience and assessment package can vary by employer and product configuration.
Does Digitspan use numbers, letters, or both?
Commonly described formats use numbers, letters, or a mixture. This practice introduces character types as difficulty changes, but it does not claim that every employer assessment follows the same progression.
Do I enter the sequence forwards or backwards?
Follow the direction shown for the current sequence. Some third-party descriptions include both same-order and reverse-order recall, but that should be treated as a possible variant rather than a fixed rule for every HireVue assessment.
Does Digitspan become more difficult?
Yes. HireVue states that its cognitive games adapt in real time: successful performance leads to a more difficult next task, while failure leads to an easier one. This site uses its own adaptive practice model and does not reproduce HireVue's exact thresholds.
Will I see the correct sequence after an error?
During the timed round, the practice shows only Correct or Incorrect so the session can continue without revealing the answer. Guided Practice may provide a missed-sequence review after the round as an independent learning feature.
What is a good Digitspan score?
There is no universal public passing score that applies to every employer and role. Use practice results to compare your own recall accuracy, longest correct span, entry time, and performance across repeated rounds.
Is this an official HireVue practice game?
No. HireVueGames.com is an independent preparation platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by HireVue. Its interface, sequences, adaptive logic, and result summary are independent practice features.
