What is CodeScreen?

CodeScreen is a technical assessment platform.

During the hiring process, it can be challenging & time-consuming to assess a candidate’s technical skill level based on their CV, their educational background, or a 30-minute interview. So CodeScreen screens candidates with realistic and asynchronous coding assessments that are automatically graded, so the user can more quickly identify the best developers.

CodeScreen’s value:

  • Saves time for recruiters & developers that are normally more involved in assessing candidates.
  • Provides a more accurate insight into the candidate's future performance in their job.

CodeScreen customers:

CodeScreen is helpful for companies that hires software developers. CodeScreen is particularly helpful for companies that:

  • Hire many software developers.
  • Hire for fully-remote jobs.
  • Receive many applications for their jobs.
  • Already use take-home tests.

Real-World Assessment

  • Assessments take between 1.5 - 2 hours to complete.
  • Assessments are mini projects replicating a problem that they usually face in the day-to-day job.

Real-World Environment

  • GitHub workflow allows candidates to take assessment in an environment they are most comfortable and familiar with.
  • Internal code editor (IntelliJ, Visual Studio Code, etc) allows companies to use more complex real-world problems in their assessments.

Custom Assessments

  • Import & update existing take-home tests
  • Assessments can be created that test for company/domain specific skills (e.g. FinTech, Web3, etc.)

Live Coding with Context

  • Combines the scale of take-home tests with the personal interaction of live coding interviews.
  • Increases the accuracy of live interviews by allowing candidates to first solve the assessment in their own time & comfort and then discuss their solution in the interview.
