CoderPad vs. HackerRank

We were looking for tech guy (coder) for an idea and rather than going through the whole process of finding and hiring the people we opted for CoderPad. It did the job very well in filtering out people who were fit and not fit for our role. This way our time was saved.

I think HackerRank is very good for companies who have many candidates applying for specific coding related roles and they do not have time to interview all of them for the positions. It is a quick and easy way to screen out candidates before moving on to interviews. In situations where there are less qualified candidates for a role, or if the role is more specialized, it may be better to use another method than HackerRank.

• Occasionally IDE parsing of code will mark correct code incorrect and will update late
• Listing functions callable by a given object is sometimes slow
• Could provide a small non-login required demo site for interviewees so they will be more used to the development environment before interviews

CoderPad is incredibly easy to use, not much to note.

Coderpad provides many features which HackerRank doesn't, such as Candidate comparison, 24*7 customer support. It also provides integration with several other applications such as greenhouse, workable, Smartrecruiters, Linkedin Talent Hub, Prelude, Okta, etc. Also, It's free for candidates who want to gather credibility by putting up their scores on the profile.
