HackerRank Interviews offers a dynamic live coding platform for conducting technical interviews online, simulating the experience of an on-site interview. This approach allows interviewers to efficiently assess candidates' coding and problem-solving skills in real time, making the process both time-efficient and cost-effective. Below, you will find an overview of the platform and its key features.
Key Features
Access to the Library: Interviewers can choose questions from their personal library or the HackerRank library, or create new ones. This flexibility allows for seamless interaction with problem statements and code stubs during the interview.
Code Collaboration: Participants can collaboratively edit, run, and test code in real time. The interviewer can monitor the candidate's progress, providing immediate feedback and assessment.
Templates: Interviewers can use and share templates to standardize questions across interviews.
Call and Chat Functionality: Integrated text, voice, and video chat features enable smooth communication between the interviewer and the candidate. The chat widget can be moved freely on the screen.
Playback Feature: Post-interview, a detailed report with the interview playback is generated, allowing other team members to review the candidate's performance.
Scorecard: Interviewers can provide feedback using an interview scorecard, which includes different focus areas or skills with a star rating system. The scorecard remains confidential from the candidate.
Built-in IDE: The platform supports multiple programming languages, ensuring candidates are evaluated according to job-specific requirements.
Built-in Whiteboard: The whiteboard feature is integrated for system design evaluations, helping assess the candidate's architectural thinking.
Interviews are dynamic, just like on-site interviews. It allows interviewers to change and customize questions after seeing the candidates' progress. For instance, if a candidate can solve the given questions quickly, the interviewer might decide to test the candidate on other skills in the questions that follow.
