What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

Large library of questions that apply technologies important to us and our customers.

Great variance of question types (programming, multiple choice, whiteboarding, more).

Real actual projects that can also run on my computer (as in, outside of HackerRank) when dealing with technologies like react, angular, spring boot, and more.

Very collaborative support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

There is nothing on my dislike list. There are items on my wish list, i.e. opportunity to have test setting that allows test reports sent to test taker.

My support team is open ears and collaborative at looking at feature opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Assessing candidates who enter Access Point.

Helping Access Point students, and up to senior engineers, have an awesome practice ground for working on realistic and difficult problems, and solving them, with a test-driven high feedback approach that includes time/space complexity.

Basically, we're able to see strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities of each individual w/ a great coachable clarity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

It helps outline the fundamental skills and level of understanding for candidates across basic, intermediate, and advanced skill sets. This is helpful for setting appropriate assessment bars for interviewing teams and to help recruiters understand skills surrounding newer or niche skillsets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

the developer skills platform is more of a reference or resource guide, so it will be helpful to see if questions or recommended ways of assessing added to the pages Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

setting assessment bars or common understanding with hiring teams so we know we are asking fair and balanced questions (i.e. avoiding advances questions for junior questions) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I love how I can easily customize the coding challenge that we can send over to our candidates - whether it would be the dates, time, or type of coding assessment. Our company does not want to try getting other types of coding challenges in the market because HackerRank itself seems to be the best that we have, couldn't compare more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I dislike the idea that they do not have all the coding challenges that we need for all of our Software Engineers, like for Flutter Developers. I wish there would have been an option for them to take a look at that, but overall, it's looking good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HackerRank Developer Skills Platform:

If you are looking to hire engineers and gauge their skills and expertise, this is the platform for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have brought up the concerns about having a coding assessment for the Flutter Developers, which is not available in the meantime and reaching out to one of your HackerRank experts guaranteed us that it will be taken care of in the future. I love the quick responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

the random test generator is very useful.

It creates sections with varying questions and each section has its' own time limitation and ability to pick random quetions.

I've been able to easily and quickly create a test and it's usually spot on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

When creating a random generated test there's no visible option to move around any of the sections or determine the order of sections a candidate will face in the test. That would be a great addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows me to experience the candidate's quality of code up close and not from github/bitbucket with older projects. I can see if the candidate works well under a time constraint and the report "step by step" allows me to view their progress within the test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

When I first implemented HackerRank with another company years ago, it was primarily take-home tests and typically only used for more entry-level candidates. Since then it's evolved exponentially, always listening to our needs along the way. The tool is brand conscious- with some customizable components that make it fit better for your company. The UI itself is sleek and more developed than many competitors in the same business. But the best part has been the partnership and the company's ability to listen to their customers that has created a variety of test types and the ability to truly customize the experience for our candidates. HackerRank has come to our aide to help build, expand, test, and build again. The ability to level the playing field for more skill-based hiring has been a special favorite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

There are a few limitations around imports (flasks/git) that seem to be more of an annoyance than a must-have for some of our interviewers. We are hopeful that there will be some enhancements around testing for iOS/ Android development soon as well-- as this is the one area in that we are still using a different platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to blast out take-home assessments to a class of potential interns is vital! It makes our lives so much easier when we can use the integration with SmartRecruiters to just filter the results we're looking for. The latest SR integration enhancement was fantastic! Interviewers can just click the link from the candidate profile-- that's been a huge win recently as well, with fewer clicks or searching. The newer development testing tool is exactly what we needed to interview some higher-level candidates that wanted to think through problems, not necessarily execute code on every line. There's some improvement there to be done but we're feeling more "free" with this test type. The whiteboard is still a fan favorite for those interviewers that miss that in-person experience of drawing on the board. I think we'll get even more use once our managers have all been more thoroughly trained on all the capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I help manage the HackerRank relationship for our company. We are constantly in need of the best technical talent out there. While our team has used both assessments and interviews, the interviews platform is truly the most valuable part of the platform for our current needs. It allows our teams to have time with the candidates in a remote experience but also be able to dial in on their skill set, making sure they are right for the role they are interviewing for. If there have ever been any issues their support team and customer success teams have been quick to respond and they really value our partnership overall. Our team would not be able to grow at the speed of we are hiring if it was not for the HackerRank tool in place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

HackerRank is a bit difficult to navigate when beginning usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

HackerRank very accurately accesses technical skills for candidates. The data is also saved so we can return to past candidates and track them. We use assessments as well which helps find good candidates early in the recruiting process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

HackerRank is easy to use and flexible. We have been able to create multiple tests using the questions already in the HackerRank database, but we also have the capability to create our own questions. The candidates get the test instantly upon us sending it via the system. We just enter their email address and click send. The rest is taken care of. Set up was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

At first, we created tests that the candidates had a hard time passing because some of the questions were too hard. But we were able to recalibrate and found that there is an insights tab that tells you how many candidates have passed that particular question, so we were able to find questions candidates were more likely to get right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed the capability to test candidates before submitting them to our hiring manager. We now have the capability to complete that step in the hiring process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

The level of care and attention to customer service, they are always open to feedback and act on it really quickly. They provide great insights into how we are using the platform and come ready with ideas on how to improve and get the best out of the platform and our package with them. What I really appreciate is, our account manager never assumes if she's unsure, but will make a note to check with the correct team and actually comes back to us without the need to ever chase.

I look forward to my regular catchups with our account manager, she ever drops the ball and is great at following up and helping us keep on top of what we need to do. Every interaction I've had with a Hackerank staff member over the last few years has been really positive. Would recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

When making changes to the comms sent to candidates, you have to be manually updated test by test, however, I don't need to do this often or for many tests so can't complain. Would be great to be able to make changes to all or multiple test comms at one time. (A very small issue I've only mentioned as I can't think of anything else I dislike). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Other than being able to test/assess candidates' technical skills in a seamless way, one of the biggest problems is candidates are interviewing at multiple companies so get tired of doing tests/assessments for individual companies. Hackerank is putting together certified testing which could really help the 'assessment fatigue' issue with most candidates in the market these days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

We used the HackerRank platform for the Support Engineer Hiring in our Organisation. I liked the fact that this was very customisable and was able to cater to our requirements. We were able to leverage the existing library to pick questions from. Moreover the tool also allowed us to add our own questions into it. This allowed us the flexibility to curate the test as per our needs and not just go with an Out of Box solution. The tool was pretty straightforward, and we were up and running with a 10 min demo by the HackerRank team. Kudos to the Team led by Ranjit, who helped us navigate thru the process. Shruthi & Ranjit were able to answer all our queries about the usability and features. They were also available and happy to join us on calls whenever there was a need from our end. So overall a very good experience!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerRank Developer Skills Platform?

I have used it only once and in that experience, I did not find anything that I disliked. I may be able to share that insight when we have used it a few more times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerRank Developer Skills Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?
