The service looks nice and the idea is definitely a good one. One questions - you guys look very similar to http://codility.com http://codility.com . AFAIK they have been around for a while (see discussion here http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1039140 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1039140), have more programming tasks, support TDD and more languages. It's unclear to me whether you just want to compete in the same space or are you anyhow different from them?
- kranner 16y agoThanks! Essentially we'd be in the same space. The ways this will differ is: 1) cheaper, one-time pricing, 2) opening up over-played questions to free, public use, 3) less complexity for test-assigners (at least I'd guess so, I haven't really used Codility to assign tests to candidates in real life). Give it time, it's just getting warmed up. Personally I think this space will (and should) see a lot more competition. Single founder here.
- kranner 16y agoWhoops: I meant pay-per-use pricing, not one-time. So it's for companies with a one-time hiring need and, for instance, individuals looking to screen outsourcing partners.
