Custom Tests are Tests designed by Recruiters in HackerRank to suit their specific hiring requirements. You can build a Custom Test to include Questions that assess Candidates for a specific job role, experience and skill level. You can create new Questions and add to your Custom Tests. Alternatively, you can also include Questions from the HackerRank built-in Library or your company Library.
Example: You want to hire Quality Assurance Engineers with 5 years of experience and skills to build optimal Test automation scripts. You can build a Custom Test for this Role, and create relevant Questions to build the Test. Assess your Candidates based on the optimal solutions provided for each Question in the Test.
