Show HN: Candidate Code – take home coding test management

  • I've found well-designed take home coding tests to be a great way of assessing potential hires during a recruitment process. I've also found that take home tests can be really hard to manage for a growing team; lost emails from HR are common, incomplete submissions are returned ad-hoc via zipped attachments and google drive uploads, and reviews and feedback from your own engineers are often difficult to keep track of.

    I created Candidate Code to make it trivially simple to issue your existing take home coding tests through Git, collect the results and review them collaboratively. Feedback is welcome.

  • I refuse take home tests, we need better ways of triaging talent not better ways of wasting my time.
