HackerRank Developer Skills Platform Reviews & Product Details

HackerRank is equipped with all the features you'd need for the interview and works very reliably. That is the thing I like the most about HackerRank.

The layout, code highlighting, support for programming languages to choose from, the execution engine, everything has always worked well.

Follow mode and pair-programming works well as well and I've had fun using it. I can jump into the interviewee's code and work alongside them, which is super nice.

Mentioned before, but I'd like to highlight that the platform has everything that an interviewer would expect. A questions library, different logins for interviewers and interviewee, lobby and interviewer controls, coding tool, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI has a bit of a learning curve attached to it. But if you use it for a couple of times, it becomes easy to use. Specifically the consequence of an action is not clear enough is what i felt. For example, when i click on the 'Use' button on a question from the question bank, what exactly happens? does the interview start? But again, these are not prevailing issues, get addressed once you use the platform enough.

One other issue is that the UI seems a bit busy, but cannot complain about it since that is what gives the sense of the platform being powerful. If there was a way to present everything in a more "aerated" way, it would be cool, but not a dealbreaker if not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the variety of questions that are built in by default. Additionally, the organization by roles makes it easy and simple to create tests. In general, the tool is easy to use and its implementation in our organization was very easy. On the other hand, whenever we have had any kind of difficulty, we have always received timely attention through the channels that HackerRank provides for support.

For me, it is a bit difficult to understand the recruiter and test developer model, I see that there are no marked differences and this incurs a cost for which I find it hard to see any kind of benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use, the combination of MCQ, Coding and Case study. Ease of implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The API that was required for generation of reports using the email id is unavailable, which is considered to be one of the important requirements. However the team is working in building the API the availability of the API takes more time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that HackerRank already has a very large and wide-ranging question library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing to note is that the UI can sometimes feel a bit cluttered. It takes a little time to get used to it, but once you do, it’s manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It supports addition of all kinds of files to test coding, system design, jupyter notebooks, add json files etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing yet. I like using Hackerrank platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Hackerrank quite a lot to conduct coding and whiteboarding system design interviews. The interface is very easy to use. The candidate tracking feature is very helpful because it's easy to catch when they are cheating. Creating your own questions and templates is also a very useful feature. We use it for all our interviews (4-5 times a week). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything is great, I don't think that it needs much improvement anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Super easy to use and the number of choices of default questions already out of the box Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the good questions don't have interviewer guidelines, which saves a ton of time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I consider the platform to be very intuitive and full of possibilities. The entire creation process is very detailed and well guided. Speaking of implementation, it's extremely simple to create and publish a hiring test, with different approches. Also, the customer support is a highlight - I really appreciate it.

Hackerrank is one of the tabs always open in my browser, I use it almost daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have difficulty formatting questions and answers; I couldn't say if there is any correct way to deal with fonts, types and sizes, but it's the only part that I don't find that intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HackerRank has made it significantly easier to identify candidates whose skills match our exact technical requirements. The platform streamlines the process of administering coding tests and provides a wide variety of questions that help assess different technical competencies. The proctoring features are especially helpful, capturing a candidate’s picture at intervals, tracking tab switches, and detecting potential plagiarism. This ensures the integrity of our assessments and gives us confidence that the results accurately reflect each candidate’s abilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the platform is highly effective, sometimes candidates report technical glitches with the proctoring features, such as camera or network issues. Additionally, the process for reviewing flagged plagiarism can be time-consuming if there are a lot of candidates, and customizing some advanced question types or assessments may require a learning curve for recruiters who are new to the system.
