Overall Satisfaction with CodeSignal

At Borderless we are hiring a world-class engineering team to build a global hiring and payments platform. As a startup without any dedicated recruiting personnel, CodeSignal is instrumental in allowing us to qualify and interview candidates.

We use CodeSignal for both screening applications at the beginning of the hiring process, as well as for live coding interviews in the final stages of the process. It is very convenient to have a bank of questions to draw from. We also use it to create custom tests and exercises.

The platform gives a great candidate experience in that the editor is easy to use. It is easy to define and run test cases. It is easy to share the editor and IDE between the candidate and the interviewer. We have received a lot of positive feedback from candidates on the interview experience.
  • Great candidate experience
  • Intuitive interface
  • Powerful options for asynchronous / take-home screening exercises
  • User friendly live coding / collaborative editing experience
  • Seeing or creating reports on tests and candidate submissions
  • Live collaborative coding
  • Candidate screening
  • It saves our company many hours in screening top-of-funnel candidates.
  • It increases our conversion rate from interviews to hires because of the candidate experience.
I found CodeSignal's model for defining test cases to be more effective. Other products rely on console I/O which is very limiting, and adds complexity for candidates and interviews in parsing input and formatting output.
CodeSignal's interface of functions, with parameters and return types specific to each language, is much cleaner, easier to use, and more powerful.
