HackerRank from a software engineering interns view
Overall Satisfaction with HackerRank
HackerRank is used by my organization to conduct coding tests in order to screen candidates before offering them an interview.
Pros
- Easy to Understand
- Code Autocomplete
- Customizable
Cons
- Sometimes gives away the name of the problem before starting the exam
- Easy to use and understand by candidates
- Can choose what questions to test candidates with
- Easy straightforward scoring method
- Has increased our ability to consider more candidates as we can send many potential candidates a first round HackerRank before moving on to interviews
HackerRank is used by many other similar organizations so our targeted candidates are more familiar with the HackerRank interface. CodeSignal is nice because candidates can take one test and send it to many different companies. However, this means that individual companies have less control over the specific types of questions being asked to candidates.
