Overview
HackerRank Tests integrates with Jobvite to trigger HackerRank Test invites directly from Jobvite. Recruiters managing candidate profiles in Jobvite can use this integration to carry out a seamless and efficient candidate skills assessment for different requisitions without leaving their Jobvite account.
This article provides useful troubleshooting tips for some common issues encountered while enabling and using the integration.
Troubleshooting
View the Application Details section of the Candidate profile to note any issues encountered which failed to send the Test invite.
The ‘HackerRank Test Status’ will be set to error status in case an invite could not be sent or there was some other such error. Here are the possible error statuses and the possible resolutions for them:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

- A change in the candidate score
- A change in the status of the test report - for e.g. from Completed - Evaluation Required to Completed - Failed.
The HackerRank servers poll the Jobvite servers once in 60 minutes. So in the worst case, your candidate can take up to one hour to receive the invite email.
