### "Experience with HackerEarth"

June 18, 2023

5.0

Practice and interview software engineer jobs by answering coding questions quickly.

Pros

Inline code execution in the browser provides immediate feedback on problem interviews, offering fair assessment of introverts' skills while cutting through extrovert lingos. It supports Python 3's latest version and is suitable for introverts.

Cons

The interview pipeline is unclear, with slow feedback from recruiters and potential spam.

### "Good tool for filtering candidates"

November 29, 2022

3.0

Pros

Range and availability of programming questions available is good. Also ease at which once can create different assessments and assign to candidates is also very easy. The candidate evaluation report is detailed.

Cons

There should be user definable categories for sorting candidates. Currently what is available is restricting and also very confusing.

### "Customizable for your companies needs"

March 30, 2023

5.0

Pros

Our company still actively works in and hires Delphi Developers. This was not a language available on any other platforms. We asked Hackerearth to add it for us and they were able to. They are able to customize and scale the product for every need and meet customer asks. We had used another assessment website previously that was not able to do this. HackerEarth gave me more confidence as a recruiter to assess technical candidates without getting the hiring teams involved. They were also very supportive and helpful to provide free trials etc.

Cons

The pricing is based on users and number of jobs rather than a flat rate. So it could be a con depending on how companies plan to use it and how much they know about their hiring.

### ""Comprehensive Review of Hackerearth Assessments: Pros, Cons, and Tips for Success""

January 19, 2023

5.0

It is a widely used software for technical assessments and coding challenges. Many recruiters and companies consider it to be a reliable and effective tool for evaluating the coding skills of potential candidates. It offers a wide range of features such as user-friendly interface, wide range of coding challenges and assessments, ability to customize tests for specific job roles or skill levels, variety of programming languages and tools, real-time analytics and reports and the ability to conduct online coding interviews.

Pros

This software is very useful for the developers and for the purpose of the programming itself. It is user friendly interface. It has the ability to customize tests for specific job roles or skill levels. Additionally, the platform offers a variety of programming languages and tools, real-time analytics and reports, and the ability to conduct online coding interviews.

Cons

I think that Hackerearth assessment software is that it's not clear what the exact test question is and the requirement for the solution for some problems, which can make it difficult to know if the solution is correct or not. Additionally, some users may find that the platform's pricing can be a bit high, especially for small businesses or individual users.

### "An awesome assesment taking platform"

July 23, 2021

5.0

The overall experience with HackerEarth is really amazing and satisfying

Pros

Hackerearth is one of the best assesment taking platform out here in the market. A lot of companies use hackerearth for coding challenges required for talent hiring. The scoring is pretty significant along with reporting and analysis. Also, we can easily cancel test and the creation is pretty easy too. It also provides tests and hackathons for individuals to get associated and make themselves readied up for an assignment.

Cons

Hackerearth can develop their user interface a bit better. For me, it's a bit bland when I compare it with hackerrank.

### "A Good platform for Building your skills, Upgrading with new Tech. and getting Hired"

September 13, 2020

5.0

Its great to have a platform like this. I like using this platform for my career growth.

Pros

This platform is great for attending Hackathons and getting up to date. Many renowned companies and organizations organize hackathons and competitions, that you can participate. I am from India and I did participated twice in international company organized hackathon. Now coming to the coding platform there's a sport called codearena where you have to code instantly against your opponent to win the match. Its very interesting for a programmer to build competitive coding skills . And people also do get hired from this platform. Similar to hackathons many companies put vaccancies and hiring is also done here.

Cons

Till now as such thing i didnt found here.

### "Simplifying Recruitment Process"

December 1, 2022

Hacker earth saved our Manual effort in resource filtration, Loads of manual effort are reduced and we go ahead with skilled resources who cleared the assessment.

Pros

Topic combinations help us pick and choose the subjects and save the recruitment team time in identifying resources. A lot of human effort is minimised.

Cons

There is nothing much to highlight as we are still in the exploring stage and customer support is very helpful in resolving issues.

### "A great launchpad to competetive programming"

August 21, 2019

5.0

Overall, I believe it is a nice and clean platform for beginners who really wish to step into the league of competitive coders.

Pros

Well curated content. Great work on the IDE and solutions to the problems. the tutorials on algorithms in "code monk" sections are created keeping in mind the interests and level of beginners.

Cons

Well, at times it can be difficult to navigate to the type of problems you are looking to solve due to slight issues with indexing and prioritization.

### "My experience with HackerEarth"

December 6, 2022

4.0

Overall great product. But to implement in a service organisation, a framework built for pre-set conditions that is common in the industry will reduce the friction and provide easy adoption. That kind of a hand holding program will make the product better penetration.

Pros

One stop shop. You could do all 360 degree information collection and actions of your candidate assessment within the platform.

Cons

Inconsistencies in session management, sometimes getting logging out, sometimes action buttons are hidden.
