The deterrents

Before using HackerEarth Assessments, GlobalLogic manually screened applications to identify top candidates. And this was especially difficult when they wanted to screen and hire candidates from different universities. The volume of candidates was high, and the team spent too much time evaluating and assessing candidates.

The team wanted an efficient way to:

  • Identify high-quality candidates
  • Decrease the time to hire
  • Increase the scale of hiring

Changing the game with HackerEarth

Now, the technical recruitment process at GlobalLogic is as follows:

  • Screen resumes to shortlist candidates
  • Send a HackerEarth test to the shortlisted candidates
  • Organize a group discussion with the candidates who are selected
  • Conduct multiple rounds of interviews (technical, managerial, and HR) with candidates who are selected

GlobalLogic leverages HackerEarth Assessments for campus and lateral hiring in the ratio of 70:30. The team uses HackerEarth Assessments to hire technical talent across different skill sets and experience levels (0-4 years of experience).

The team evaluated a few other competing solutions and found HackerEarth to fulfill most of their needs. After switching to HackerEarth, here are some of the benefits that GlobalLogic witnessed:

  • Assess candidates across a wide range of skills: GlobalLogic predominantly uses HackerEarth Assessments to hire developers skilled in Java, C#, Python, SQL, and Machine Learning. The vast question library makes it easier for the team to create tests for multiple skills.Apart from using the library with pre-built questions, the team also adds custom questions while creating an assessment.

“Compared to other solutions, HackerEarth provides us with a lot of useful features— the vast question bank to add questions and the ability to assess candidates in real-time.”
