And that's the other reason I never do online tests. I don't know what the company and for example CodePad will do with the data collected from me. Will they store, sell and/or share it? Will CodePad reuse collected data in any way if I do an interview for another company? Etc..
- akanet 9y agoI sort of doubt this will change your course of action, but we of course do not share your data. That said, any company that asks you an interview question has probably seen hundreds of answers to said question already and probably has neither the inclination nor ability to profit from somehow collating your answers. If anything, companies are much more concerned with candidates sharing questions with each other.

- matt_kantor 9y agoRight, what you type is shared with the company interviewing you. Isn't that kind of the point of the product? Isn't that true in whiteboard coding interviews as well? Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but getting worked up about this sounds like being upset that GMail sends your messages to recipients' mail servers. I think akanet was clarifying that CoderPad doesn't share your data with any other companies. If you're worried about the company you're interviewing with doing shady things, I'd suggest interviewing somewhere else.
