Love their environment and tutorials!
What do you like best about the product?
The tutorials. They are really useful, well organized, and just a joy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inability to skip ahead in tutorial if you want to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Practicing on their tutorial significantly improved my python skills.
Good Product and Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to Use and good IDE interface. The problems are also well written with helpful examples.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would appreciate a wider array of practice interviews. Additionally, the content from practice problems seems to be much less than that of the interview.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code signal provides an assessment location that is easier to use than other services.
Great Experience
What do you like best about the product?
The platform provides lots of examples for practice.
What do you dislike about the product?
Running line by line was a hustle and made it a bit too much work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Online platform for testing coding skills
Well-written prompts and attractive metrics report to measure performance.
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy looking at the reports and receiving feedback with good visuals and numbers that are easy to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
I disagree with the randomization. I think the combination of difficulty between problems in an assessment could be balanced better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CodeSignal helps programmers understand which concepts they need more practice in and also highlight their thought process.
A little difficult to reach the best scores. However, the coding exam seems fair.
What do you like best about the product?
Diversity of problems. I find that the different problems provided by code signal are helpful in assessing overall coding expertise.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some problems can be extremely difficult. This makes it more difficult to truly understand how a testee performed. It would be nice to have assessment feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Codesignal has been used by several companies that I have interviewed with. One of the best things I noted about Code signal was that the general assessment could be used for several companies. In that way, Code signal is definitely streamlining the interviewing process for new graduates who apply to several companies.
Great coding practice and interview prep
What do you like best about the product?
CodeSignal has a wealth of exercises to practice. They're organized into sensible categories, and are available in an Aracde format (if you just want to do a ton of practice) or into categories by subject matter or even little mini-courses for interview prep. The problems are well-explained. I also really like the ability to see other answers and so that I can see how other people solve the problems I did. The IDE is easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
CodeSignal is pretty much dedicated to pure programming, so the problems are kind of generic. It would be interesting to get some language-specific content. For example, Python is hugely important for data scientists and data analysts, so some exercises built around Python-only packages (e.g. Pandas) would be a huge benefit. I understand that this is not as attractive to CodeSignal (because you can't really make them available in all languages, so it's less bang-for-the-buck in that sense), but I think it would be totally worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I approach CodeSignal as a candidate, so for me it's solving the problem of getting a daily dose of language practice. I'm a little more senior in my career, and it helps to have exercises I can work on to stay sharp. It's also beneficial because CodeSignal is used by recruiters, so practicing the exercises and getting familiar with the system makes me better-prepared when possible employers use CodeSignal to screen / vet candidates.
Overall good as an interviewer
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the ide. It was very similar to vscode. Offered intelligence and allowed me to focus on Schwab code instead of worrying about syntax and the name of functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
As an interviewer. I found the platform to be extremely confusing. I was trying to set up an interview for a candidate and struggled. Questions and templates are confusing and it should be simplified
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving how to interview people using code and to get an accurate assessment of what they do. I am not as interested in running code but I like seeing their code stored
Codesignal is a great optimization for candidate review.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to filter candidates out by ability to code, and screen those without the necessary ability to even get to the interview process. It is a much more standardized approach compared to competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nicer to get more insight as to candidate ability - I feel that the question bank varies a lot and some candidates that are suitable to a position could be screened out while others make it in
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps entirely with the screening of candidates - cutting down on interviews that waste our time. I think it is a huge time save for interviewing and adding to a holistic review of candidates.
Overall great platform
What do you like best about the product?
Overall a great platform and you get results back very quickly with a detailed analysis about how you did. The platform is really easy to use and has auto fill, test cases, etc. in order to help out with your code. There are also practice tests to help study for exams
What do you dislike about the product?
The questions vary greatly in their difficulty, and if you just so happen to have seen a question before you'll be at a great advantage which makes the process a little bit unfair.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making the interview process easier by allowing users to send test results to multiple companies. CodeSignal is also removing unfair bias by allowing users to only be able to take a test once every two weeks.
Good experience
What do you like best about the product?
It is efficient and visually appealing and easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about code signal
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a good way to complete pre screening for interviews
