Chose CodeSignal
HackerEarth I've used as part of an interview before. It was alright, I felt like the questions were too verbose, so I didn't like it very much. HackerRank is pretty good, and I would say it is the biggest competitor for CodeSignal when I am picking an interviewing platform.

The standard of questions is much better. Assessments are done based on speed, accuracy, and many other things which are missing in many other platforms. The scoring system is one of the best. It gives an accurate measure of the skills the person possesses. These things make …

Chose CodeSignal
Not applicable as the companies chose CodeSignal for the coding assessments. I still do think it's better than the other 2 which I've mentioned.
Chose CodeSignal
HackerRank has a lot of questions but has a lot of questions online that provide solutions to the questions. The questions are generic and the features are limited. There are good new questions on code signals that are novel and help gauge the knowledge of the candidate better. …

CodeSignal's user interface is way better than both of its competitors. Most of the technical assessments have now shifted to CodeSignal. I feel the quality of practice problems on other platforms is much better as compared to CodeSignal but the quality of problems in a …

CodeSignal
I think code signal is one of the best platforms for organizations to better test the resource for their coding skills. Its way of conducting the test saves engineering time, reduces the risks that hiring companies have in technical interviews, and provides a cheating-free environment. The platform can be improved to make the new learners practice well on the platform and get used to it.

Here are some scenarios based on my experience where HackerEarth Assessments is well suited,
  1. Straightforward tool and the learning curve is not at all steep so getting new employees onboarded on the tool is smooth.
  2. Job Description related questionnaire library is conducive for quickly setting up
  3. The coding platform is really good, it gives solid ide and amazing debugging abilities for the people being assessed
  4. Their support of different types of assessments be it programs or MCQs is really flawless and quite impressive.
Basically I didn't find any such situations where it didn't perform according to what it is intended to. One thing I would just point out that their pricing strategy could be improved, like it is on the higher side for small scale companies

Cons
CodeSignal
  • The platform should provide candidates with detailed feedback, allowing them to identify areas for improvement if necessary.
  • Furthermore, despite the fact that the assessment is complete, the platform prioritizes speed. In order to finish the assignment on time, people may be forced to forgo quality or desired output.
  • They should improve the question selection procedure, as some of the questions are too long to finish in the allocated time.

I give it this rating because it is very easy to use. Not only that it is proctored and trusted. Moreover, the candidates find it easy to use given that it is a single test. This means that we get much more applications than using other platforms. This helps us to hire better faster and easier with codesignal.

Compared to HackerRank, HackerEarth Assessments offers a similar coding assessment platform with a focus on tailored challenges for technical hiring. While both platforms assess coding skills, HackerEarth Assessments excels in remote evaluation and diversity outreach. There wasn't the much of a difference, but the UI of HackerEarth was nicer and we got a better price.
