HackerRank tests are very effective for companies in that they capture candidates who:
- Have great problem solving ability.
- Low emotional intelligence or self-esteem (don't realize that the kinds of companies that make you do these tests are exploitative and will treat you like livestock).
- Don't have specific ambitions and don't place much value on their own time (prepared to spend tons of time studying/practicing for the tests).
- jarsin 9y agoThe question is though how the hell do we find companies that don't do these test? It seems everyone and their mom are doing it now days, even immigration officials :)
- jondubois 9y agoMost startups and some big companies like banks don't use these kinds of tests - Their process is mostly based around peer-review from other engineers in the company.
