HackerEarth, a leading developer assessment and interview solutions provider, announced the addition of fullstack assessments to help recruiters efficiently evaluate the coding skills of fullstack developers.
HackerEarth’s CEO, Sachin Gupta, made the announcement at Hire10(1), HackerEarth’s flagship virtual conference to help recruiters and engineering leaders hire top developers and build great tech teams.
According to the 2020 HackerEarth Developer Survey, more developers — over 35% — have expertise in fullstack development than in any other category. Yet evaluating these skills is notoriously difficult because fullstack development spans across multiple skills and requires a high level of customization based on the specific technology stack that an organization uses.
HackerEarth’s fullstack assessment solution is highly flexible and customizable, supports a large number of out-of-the-box tech stacks, while simultaneously allowing any custom stack to be installed in the development environment. These assessments also include a powerful browser-based IDE built on top of Theia editor, providing developers the same code writing experience in the browser as they would get on their own systems.
“Organizations are increasingly looking to recruit fullstack developers. In fact, recent data from a survey done by Indeed shows that the demand for fullstack developers in the U.S. increased by 206% between 2015-2018.However, finding a good fullstack developer is hard since the assessment process is notoriously difficult and can take hours, days, and even weeks” said HackerEarth CEO, Sachin Gupta. “We added this feature to simplify the process and are working to make it easy for recruiters to proctor over longer time periods and assess using various programming languages. Our goal is to enable recruiters to evaluate developer skill from early candidate screening to more in-depth assignments in the later stages of recruitment, as well as to provide the best performance and experience possible for fullstack candidates.”
