Ah ok maybe I didn’t understand the process. So all my feedback goes to the candidate first? And they only choose to forward that on after they’ve reviewed it? In that case I’d probably be comfortable giving them the negative feedback.

As a consumer of your service, I’d be a little worried about the client only showing me the good stuff. But I guess if the questions are complex enough it would be hard to filter for only good stuff.

I don't think that's what they mean. Its hidden from the candidate and the candidate doesn't know whats in it - except from the result of that application. but only the candidate can decide which employers to show it to. Weird why I might want to show or not show references when I don't know what's in it.
