Using HackerRank has allowed us to substantially improve our recruitment process by allowing us to better assess whether the candidates have the necessary hard skills for the position they are applying to.

One of the best tools out there to help with hiring process. I am part of a start up and evaluated multiple products to help the team with hiring talent. Hackerrank made our lives easy by providing the solution.

Hackerrank has a vast question bank and across different subjects which is cool.

Nice UI with stats for different set of criterias Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

On some of the subjects, there are limited coding related questions.

The most helpful feature and time-saving feature we've found is the "tab switching" and "copy-paste" activity monitoring. It truly helps us carry out our assessments in an efficient way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Good integration set up Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some limitations on certain settings, for example setting up test specific invites Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is responsive and intuitive to use for both the interviewer and candidate. Both parties could not know anything about the platform and jump right in to use it immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really dislike anything. Not sure if this is a feature already but maybe having cheating/similarity detection software amongst the candidate's live coding interviews in the codepad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it supports multiple language. That the editor has several IDE features that make it more realistic. I like the response time of code runs. The real time co-editing. The after-interview playback feature, with the timeline that makes it easy to find events. I also like the testing, and the ease of creating challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't say I dislike it, but it took some time to get used to the setup workflow for the interview. I'm still getting lost in the template library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HackerRank has been the widest-used assessment tool for our company in evaluating hard skills asynchronously. Offering the options of both a robust library of questions across various languages and scripts as well as create-your-own, we've found it useful for both initial and secondary screen assignments. Hiring managers and recruiting staff have greatly appreciated the ability to communicate with candidates, prevent cheating (including the use of AI), and be backed by supportive customer operations.

1. Cohesive plagiarism detection (not just indicative alerts). 2) Ability to have pdf (results) report automatically uploaded to candidate's profile in ATS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use, quick customer support response when questions arise and intuitive platform (require little training to start using but if needed there is also good standard training available) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

High costs per user to sign-up in platform. Realitically as a business hiring a high volume of developers in a 800+ people organisation, we need tech leads to take ownership of the test and tech interview process but we've had to adapt to limit this due to the restructure HackerRank went which cutdown the number of users we could have and the increase in the costs.
