"It works fairly well for me most of the time."
What do you like best about CodeSignal?

The user interface of Codesignal is very easy to use and easy to view all of my assessments for the companies I applied to in one place. The practice assessment also help as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeSignal?

While I don't expect the online assessment platform to be perfect, there was this one assessment, in particular, that would ask me to keep resharing my screen because it would stop sharing my screen even though my internet connection was stable (I've taken a couple of others before that required proctoring and did not encounter this issue) so it was a bit annoying. I'd like to see some progress made on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very positive experience using CodeSignal for Dropbox application"
What do you like best about CodeSignal?

I enjoyed using the web editor the most, it felt like a full IDE in my browser. Because I was using typescript I had intellisense and documentation right in the web editor, just like I would have when using an IDE. A lot of other code challenge platforms will just provide you with a plain text editor, making your experience unnecessarily difficult when you need to code everything from memory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeSignal?

I felt like running tests before submitting took a long amount of time. Since I wasn't allowed to use the Chrome console to test my code it would have been nice to have the CodeSignal tests run faster so I could continuously test my code as I'm writing it. When using a frontend language like TypeScript or JavaScript it would be nice to have the tests run locally, to speed up their execution time substantially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The User Interface is quite inviting and encouraging when practicing questions for interview."
What do you like best about CodeSignal?

The point system for the arcade. I enjoy trying to answer each level, be it for intro. The level system where each is unlocked once you complete the problems for the particular level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeSignal?

The only issue I have had thus far is trying to consolidate two different Codesignal accounts. One is where I initially opened Codesignal after being sent a link for a company assessment, while the other I had for interview practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Extremely great problems but require fast coding skills"
What do you like best about CodeSignal?

The scoring mechanism of the platform is very generous. In addition the platform is very user friendly, as well as very Swift. The level of questions are really good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeSignal?

The scoring mechanism of the platform is a bit unclear. I cannot understand how it is being judged if I complete a problem partially. Or even how the speed, implementation or problem solving sections are judged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very efficient, I like how it's proctored and everything is clear."
What do you like best about CodeSignal?

Upsides: proctoring reduces cheating on online assessments, directions are clear, easy to run tests on the platform/create your own, time left is very clearly seen at the top of the screen Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeSignal?

The timing is stressful sometimes, but that is not code signal's fault. I wish there were more pre-written, visible test cases. Otherwise, no complaints! Code signal is very easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
