Codility

Avantages

I have used Codility as a developer as well as an employer and I can tell you that it is a great assesment tool. One of Codility's key advantages is that it enables employers to quickly and effectively assess the coding abilities of numerous job applicants. Candidates can work at their own pace through the online coding tasks on the user-friendly website.As a developer, I use Codility to assess my coding abilities and learn new programming paradigms in the process.

Inconvénients

Some of the things which I would like them to work on is an offline mode. The complete dependence on the internet may limit some users from enjoying its features. They should also make it such that tests are optionally timed, many times, developers are not able to complete the tasks within the short timeframe.

Avantages

I recently attempted Codility. Honestly, I would say it was some mix of both challenge and insight. The platform is quite well designed with a smooth interface to coding, clear problem statements, and real-time feedback about performance.

Inconvénients

Probably, one of the issues with Codility is that the tests can sometimes appear a little too edged on the edge cases. I think it might be frustrating for developers more accustomed to solving practical, everyday problems. In some cases, very severe time limitations and scoring systems really add unnecessary stress on candidates. Instead of exploring creative solutions, candidates focus more on trying to get a qualifying score.

Avantages

It is deployable and easier for HR who don't understand code themselves.
The ability to compare to other programmers' skills is nifty.

Inconvénients

Many of the problems are not completely presented (I.E. there are other factors that are not mentioned which would influence the code, so applicants who submit overly-thorough code will actually fail because the machine didn't like their answer.. it is a guessing game)

20 minute time limits to solve an algorithm problem are NEVER the case in real life.

Programmers do not work off memory, they work off documentation-- codility does not test on use of frameworks or libraries, only math concepts.

The IDE is limited, will delete the applicant's code if they switch languages momentarily.

Pourquoi passer à Codility

Avantages

It's easy of use and I can reach evey old questions easily because questions listed near by near. And I can connect to start time for taking my test again if time is already expired. And resolving time period for every test questions is long, in 1-2 month every body can connect and resolve problem and earn certificate for every resolving problems.

Inconvénients

For every problems I trying use my computer idea before adding my code to Codility because it apsent idea feature, ex. autocomplete. And I do my test cases by myself(It's a bit takes time ) in my idea. I would like Codility before give the several tests cases which users can copy to add their idea.

Avantages

Codility offers a lot of features that can help it's users for developing their recruitment system faster. Codility is also a great tool for the job seeker as they can practice the latest interview skills here.

Inconvénients

I didn't find any disadvantages related to this one.

Avantages

It is a well organised, polished platform for coding skills evaluation. The lessons and challenges provide good content for user practice and the summary section helps to understand the areas the user is going well and areas to improve.

Inconvénients

The platform suits me very well so I don't have any comments on things I dislike or wish to improve.

Avantages

Provides a platform to test ones coding/algorithmic skills in interesting problems. The problems are challenging and the feedback provided by the system is helpful.

Inconvénients

I would prefer to see problems tailored to Machine Learning. The problems I encountered in the site are like puzzles to be solved. I would prefer to reflect more Applied Machine Learning.

Avantages

Ease of use for candidates and hiring managers

Inconvénients

Time consuming to 1st set up the system for use as you need to create all of your tests

Avantages

allows me to continue my education after code bootcamp

Inconvénients

not being able to compare my scripts to others for new ways to implement something

Avantages

The final report when we finish an exercise. It is simply awesome. We are able to quickly verify which area we should work harder to enhance/improve our skills.

Inconvénients

The system blocks the final report if our recruiter doesn't allow us to see it. The feeling is like I will remain blind in front of my weaknesses.

Avantages

Evaluación precisa de habilidades técnicas.Ahorro de tiempo y eficiencia con el sistema de clasificación automática que facilita el proceso de revisión y calificación de las respuestas.Flexibilidad en el armado de los tests

Inconvénients

La principal contra es que Codility está enfocado en habilidades técnicas, por lo que sus tests no son los mejores para evaluar habilidades blandas

Avantages

Codility is very easy to setup and user friendly. And one of the few things I really liked is that, for the monthly plan, the number of candidates to add for assessment is unlimited unlike other platforms that would usually have 30 slot Max.

Inconvénients

Can't really think of one, its a great tools for company that hires Tech talents in volume.

Avantages

It's is easy to use and learn new technologies

Inconvénients

All is awesome the technology used and the way assessments are set

Avantages

It's timing would really make you learn to think fast.It also helps me to measure the true capabilities of any developer.I have also improve my skill just by using their platform

Inconvénients

I can't think of any at the moment. They have really met my needs for now.

Avantages

it's very easy to use.
Supports different programming languages and can be fitted to our needs as company.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the ui/ux/layout of the product isn't easy to read the code until the end.
in 1 side we have the task and the other the result of it.
Would be good if we can improve the live code and also have like a whiteboard to interact with the candidate and solve challenges during an interview or even during the challenge.

Avantages

Easy to use. I can manage a lot of candidates and different software languages.

Inconvénients

There is not enough task. My package is not contains plagiarism check.

Avantages

Outstanding choice of candidate tests, good test evaluation review function

Inconvénients

Licence package too broad and expensive , good for body rental companies but not for a company, however large, that manages recruiting internally

Avantages

I was invited to give an online test on this platform. I liked the practice problem that they have provided with every detailed explanations as well. The test cases for each problems are also very diverse.

Inconvénients

When we are doing a problem, every easy test cases are provided. Once we submit the solution, it evaluates on a wide range of test cases depending on correctness and performance. But these test cases are not visible to the programmer. We can't see them for future reference purpose. It just show that this case failed.

Avantages

i like the lesson. We can read the material before we can test our capability in mini test or challenge

Inconvénients

in my first impression with this software, it's very user friendly. Not need many time to adapt with this software

Avantages

The software gives us the ability to create a set of coding challenges tailored to the type of hire, with the right degree of difficulty. It also has the capability to detect cheating, which has been very helpful to root out candidates we wouldn't want. After having used the software awhile, we can now gauge how different candidates compare.

Inconvénients

Not much honestly. It's working out pretty well.

Avantages

I like to take tests on Codility, it's clear about requests and also it helps you through the process.

Inconvénients

no cons about Codility, why would I have any?

Avantages

Codility really lets me add extra value to clients. It is an extra level of service that most of my competitors are providing. It is easy to use and helps me find the best candidates .

Inconvénients

Nothing that comes to mind- very user freindly

Avantages

Easier to use.
Great user interface.
Challenging questions.
Variety of languages.
Tests different areas.

Inconvénients

Very long Interview questions :)
Hidden Tests that are not shown even after the test.
Tests that are shown are very shallow.

Avantages

Having test input/output is quite easy and accessible. Interface is readable.

Inconvénients

When implementing objects from other libraries, it didn't add library automatically. And you did not notice that you have to import library before runtime.

Avantages

This is a great place for coders to prepare for interviews, and for employers to define an effective hiring process.

Inconvénients

No cons I can think of. This is a con of this survey. Why do you force me to write a minimum when I'm just happy with the software?
