Smooth, interactive experience for both candidates and interviewers. The playback function is very helpful to remind me of candidates' behavior. It allows you to set up interview questions in a template and export the interview session as a short link.
Good shared coding experience Lots of test cases run after submission Having a score generated after submission is neat
I like that Codesignal allows a user to code in any language that they want, which breaks down the barrier that I as the interviewer don't need to know the language the candidate is coding in and they have their entire setup ready to go. I also like that you can input secret test cases that the candidate cannot see in addition to the test cases the candidate can see to make sure their solution accounts for various edge cases. I also like that I can see where the candidate is typing and that the prompt is shown to them on the side so I don't have to type the prompt out and I can also go and help them with their code exactly where they are currently typing.
The thing it tested starting to get off topic with everyone using AI now in their day to day life. Timed coding assessments are useful for screening but they cannot simulate how candidates perform in real-life environment. Also, some of the icons on the buttons may not be self-explanatory.
The problem library seemed to have a lot of very easy or very hard problems, harder to find intermediate tasks to set The coding window doesn't feel as ide like as it could, need to run code to find errors that could easily just be highlighted automatically Cant see where everyones cursor is/what they have highlighted
I think 1 weakness is that sometimes the test cases assume there is 1 correct answer but based on what the candidate's solution is, there could be more than 1 correct answer that is just outputted differently, which I don't think is accounted for. I also dislike that there is not an easy way for me to prep for a test interview with the candidate's setup - I have to go and create a separate interview which might interfere with the recruiting team's pipeline. I also think an improvement can be ensuring that once I exit an interview after a certain period of time, it automatically closes the interview. Sometimes I forget to hit the final submit and close button, which isn't great because the candidate can go back in and see the question again, potentially leading to leaked information to future candidates.
