Code tests are ingenious tools designed to help you discover the crème de la crème of coding talent, ensuring that your next hire is not only proficient in their craft but also able to look at problems critically while adhering to best practices.
At their core, they are a curated collection of problems and exercises to measure a candidate’s coding skills, problem-solving abilities, and knowledge of specific programming languages and tools.
They also come in various forms, from online coding challenges to whiteboard interviews to fully simulated real-world projects (like Codeaid, of course), and can cover a wide array of topics, including data structures, algorithms, and various other software design principles.
