Is HackerRank a good way to learn how to program? I'm aware that HackerRank is generally used by employers to see how skilled a potential employee is. For someone like me who's in high school and coding leisurely (and professionally in the near future), would HackerRank be a good way to learn?
3 weeks ago, I applied to Tiktok's Frontend 2023 Graduate program and promptly got an invite to their Online Assessment on Hackerrank. I've always sucked at Leetcode , so I studied for it for nights.
Is hackerrank hard or am I just a bad programmer? I've been working through HackerRank (for like almost a year now) and recently I've been focusing on the mathematics, functional programming, and algorithms sections (I've already completed python and regex).
I am in the interview process for a Backend Engineer/Associate Integrations Engineer position and as part of that process I must do a 90-min HackerRank assessment with a follow up Interview to review my results. The assessment is 6 questions, 5 multiple choice and 1 Java coding question.
Hey, I had an interview for what I considered my dream company. It’s a prestigious startup doing exactly what I wanted. The screener call with a founding engineer went really well, the next step was a hackerrank.
Lately, I received an email from Wise that I passed the initial screening and I'm unto the next process: a coding test on HackerRank. the email says "Get ready for some problem-solving exercises (with Data Structures, Algorithms, etc.), Database & Rest APIs"
49 votes, 90 comments. trueSoftware engineer test: A typical swe OA with 2 coding questions on HackerRank (2 hours time limit). One question is a typical LC (easy-medium), the other is object-oriented design. The problem statement is long and cluttered, so be prepare to read slowly and carefully. However, if you have understood the problem statement, the problems are actually easy. (my ...
Some FYI about the HackerRank platform (I never used it at IBM, though): Basic IDE with some auto complete and errors, so hopefully syntax isn't an issue. I do worry you'll find the exercise exceptionally difficult if you need to look up basic syntax. the "report" for the grader, or whatever, does show everything you typed over time.
If you don't finish the coding challenge on HackerRank, is it pretty much guaranteed you won't get the job? I've done 2 coding challenges on HackerRank so far as part of interview processes and both times, I was unable to complete the challenge.
