Coding tests and technical interviews for hiring developers

Visit HackerRank

HackerRank is a developer recruiting platform that helps employers evaluate technical skills before and during hiring. Candidates complete take-home assessments or work in a shared coding environment with an interviewer, and employers receive scores and reports. The platform also runs a developer community where people practice coding problems and participate in hackathons.

The platform includes Screen, a technical screening tool with take-home assessments, Certified Assessments, real-world coding questions, and an AI Interviewer that evaluates candidates' ability to work with AI tools. Interview provides a pair programming environment for live interview rounds. Chakra is an AI-led pre-screening interviewer. Integrity features include plagiarism detection, identity verification, proctoring, and bias audits. The platform integrates with applicant tracking systems through APIs and SAML 2.0 SSO, and runs on AWS infrastructure.

HackerRank is for employers hiring developers and for candidates participating in assessments. The platform offers free trials for Screen and Interview, a free developer account for community access, and subscription-based plans for business customers.
