"User friendly technical assessment tool"
What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I appreciate how easy it is to create a new test and how many questions there are to choose from. The active support in our integration from the HackerRank team has been invaluable, as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I wish we could export to a spreadsheet the candidates who we have in a HackerRank test, and I also wish that accurate updates of candidates who've been dispositioned in our ATS would reflect on the HackerRank test. For example, I have one test that is manually graded via a scorecard in our ATS, so I can't easily view number of candidates who've passed based on their score alone. Not even sure if that capability exists on other similar tools though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Tool to Assess Technical Talent and Be More Efficent in Your Recruiting Process"
What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

HackerRank has a library of technical coding questions for engineers to complete in order for hiring teams to better assess their technical literacy and whether or not they can be successful in the respective open role. It saves a ton of time in vetting candidates before the recruiter screen and technical interview stages with engineers and managers. Although the library of questions is quite extensive, there is the ability to create unique coding questions as well as adjust existing questions to make them more specific to the needs of your teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

There are often questions leaked onto other external sites where candidates can find the answers to them. HackerRank does a great job of informing hiring teams and recruiters if a question has been leaked and notifies them to replace the question with another one. I do wish that there was a way to limit the leaking of questions since it does happen more than I'd like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
