What do you like best about HackerEarth Assessments?

It supports a wide range of programming languages, and the real-time feedback on code submissions is very helpful. I also appreciate the diversity of problem types—from multiple choice questions to hands-on coding challenges—which allows for a well-rounded assessment of both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The ability to simulate real-world scenarios in the coding environment is a big plus, as it gives a more accurate sense of a candidate's capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerEarth Assessments solving and how is that benefiting you?

HackerEarth Assessments is solving the problem of objective and scalable technical evaluation. In traditional hiring or learning environments, assessing coding skills can be time-consuming, subjective, or inconsistent.

For me personally, this means I can practice in a real-world environment, get instant feedback, and improve based on data.

It doesn't complicate the assessments like some other websites i have come across. The questions given are indeed a fair assessment of the skilss of a candidate applying for the company. one thing i would like for HackerEarth to consider is to include some mcq type questions aswell for the assessments(with adequate time provided), otherwise i generally find the assessments as something that provides proper time for the students to solve the question. the Question is given is such detail making it easy to undersatnd.

What do you like best about HackerEarth Assessments?

Everything is good like time given to read instructions, a proper code editor which give auto-complete suggestions, and overall interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerEarth Assessments?

The code editor require some improvement. Let me explain the problem with an example so I created a class into my code but the editor is not suggesting me any variable name or method name when I am using that class object. Second the error logs should be more details like giving line number or other context about the error. And this is just some improvement while overall system and code editor is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerEarth Assessments solving and how is that benefiting you?

Well there is no problem or so except for some auto-complete suggestion in code editor. I already explain my problem in dislike section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HackerEarth Assessments?

The dashboard created by HackerEarth for consolidated results is what I love the most. Mostover, hackerearth provides option to add sample inputs and outputs via a file that makes it easy to use and proceed further. HackerEarth also provides plagiarism checker which works like magic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HackerEarth Assessments?

One thing that I don't like about HackerEarth is how its library feature works. I need to add a question one by one into the library. I should have an option to add a question from one of my assessment directly to the library. Moreover, HackerEarth assessments should provide an option to use open questions too. Sometimes, we don't want to build new questions. One last thing to add, HackerEarth support is very bad. They don't response correctly and in time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HackerEarth Assessments solving and how is that benefiting you?

HackerEarth provides detailed report on the candidates performance that makes it best to use in any contest or competition. HackerEarth makes it easier to create questions and also add any co-problem creator when you don't have time to add all the problems by yourself Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
