304 CoderPad Reviews

The test builder is great, I chose an existing one based on the profile I wanted to hire, and I tweaked it a bit. The whole process took only half an hour. Then for the actual testing, I got a candidate score against the average score for that job profile, that did help me choose the right recruit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I found the pricing was a bit high for a small business like ours. But a bad hire costs much more than a month of CodinGame, so I guess that's ok. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find CoderPad convenient and professional, it allows conducting interviews either remotely or on-site, allows a big variety of stacks (languages), an online console for running the candidate's code, recording the interview, interactive real-time cursor and highlighting, multiple participants on the same session. It's all we need for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like everything about it, to be honest :) We don't use sound or video but prefer keeping to Zoom or Google Meet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
CoderPad makes it easy to write new interview questions, create live code pads, and create an easy experience for software engineering candidates. Since interviewing is a team sport, it's easy to view and share other interview questions and update them to keep the questions fresh. It is also the best candidate experience for live coding interviews. It is commonly used, so candidates are usually familiar with the platform, and both parties can see the code update live, so no share-screen is needed. Also, the candidates don't have to register accounts or download anything -- they can just click the link and you're off! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a little more difficult to interview front-end candidates for a React-like question. They have a basic HTML/CSS setup, but I use other software for a React-specific interview question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


* Replay of the interview is the best feature
* Supports many languages
* Compilation is fast
* Has basic support for drawings also Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* Having first class integration with zoom would be great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* Reliable and easy to use. Just create a new coderpad and send the link to the candidates.
* Easy for the candidates to join and start writing.
* Has ability to run code, to check that the code is correct.
* Lots of supported languages, with syntax highlighting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* Drawing board is okay, but in my experience, it takes more time to use than simple ascii charts right where you code (in comments).
* Recent changes made the interface more complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to use to set up new questions
Multiple language support
Interpreter access (Python)
Text highlighting
Language specific syntac hints Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of a functional debugger
Pads don't autoclose after use
No retrospective ability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like it because the questions it asks you are of various difficulties.
And they simulate a real exam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The thing that limits these questionnaires is time.
Of which 74 minutes are few if you have to solve and interpret algorithms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

great interface, highly responsive. good syntax highlighting, voice features. Playback feature is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the white board feature is really clunky, laggy and hard to use. Clicking and moving elements, click targets are off, etc. It's also a little too expensive since we only do 1-2 interviews a week Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
