DevSkiller TalentScore Reviews

Summary: DevSkiller TalentScore has helped us expedite our hiring process. It has eliminated candidates without the proper skillset for our organization.

Positive: The quantity and quality of tests. The easy deliverability and quick feedback are very important to our organization.

Negative: I don't have any negative feedback on the platform so far, it has worked very well for our needs.

Summary: Really powerful and feature rich platform, that is missing a few things to be almost perfect. Highly recommended.

Positive: - Feature rich platform
- Highly customizable
- Lots of examples and templates
- Easy to navigate
- Great support

Negative: - Apple platform support still a bit rough
+ Still geared to simple coding exercises, not project exercises (e.g. iOS app)
+ Complete logs not shown
+ Poor feedback to candidates while doing the exercise (missing logs)

Summary: Our experience has been quite positive. There is always space to improve, but overall we have become faster hiring and having less false positives.

Positive: It helps us create tests to easily validate the knowledge of candidates for our interview processes. Where we were before plagued by candidates that would be a clear no-go after a few minutes on a first call, we are now able to just focus on the candidates likely to succeed.
The interview fatigue has reduced on interviewers although we are passing much more people and faster via our process.

Negative: We have some edge cases that aren't still handled. For example for our internship pipeline we have multiple tests (FE, BE, Mobile..) for the candidate to pick and choose the one (or ones) they want to apply to.

This is possible, but in a hack way by adding all the tests and informing the candidates that they don't need to do them all, just pick the ones they want instead of a checkbox at the beginning style approach. Also at the end all are taken into account for the evaluation of the candidate since the platform isn't aware that the tests are "opt-in" a candidate might just want to do one of them.

Summary: Overall this is a great product and very helpful in helping us weed out candidates who have actual technical skills vs those who are familiar with a technology but haven't necessarily had their hands on it. The business value to us is reducing interview time and speeding up time to hire.

Positive: I did an extensive evaluation of more than a dozen tools and chose DevSkiller primarily because of ease of use and candidate experience, along with its rich catalog of questions and coding challenges and ability to customize. The integration with our applicant tracking system made it really easy for recruiters to send the assessments and see the results afterwards. The account team was responsive and helpful. Support was only needed once but they resolved the issue quickly. User interface is intuitive and the candidate experience is streamlined and elegant. I didn't have a single candidate complain about any part of the assessment experience itself.

Negative: My team found one obscure bug which was fixed quickly. I would also like to be able to customize the email notifications more. I like being able to add my own company logo but I couldn't remove the DevSkiller logo from the invite emails.

Summary: We are using this platform to accurately assess the skill levels of our potential hires. It completely automates the process, increasing our performance and efficiency, while also allowing complete manual control and customizability of all tests and tasks.

Positive: We are using this platform to assess hundreds of candidates in a great number of different technologies. DevSkiller makes this process easy with an extensive collection of premade tasks and a huge variety of languages and tools. All of this coupled with a great support team that handles any issues swiftly makes an amazing overall experience for anyone trying to organize technical assessments.

Negative: Currently, DevSkiller is one of the best platforms on the market for what it does, and there aren't many things that are missing. We could use a few quality of life features, such as dark mode and better test descriptions, but I have no doubt these are coming in the future.

Summary: The platform is great! I highly recommend DevSkiller TalentScore to accurately assess the technical skills.

Positive: It is efficient and user-friendly. I have been using DevSkiller TalentScore for over three years now and I am very satisfied with their services. The available features allow me to easily create the tests, share access, filter the candidates, monitor the completion of assessments and even more. LOVE IT!

Negative: Nothing comes to my mind - even the smallest details are considered in the design of DevSkiller TalentScore.

Summary: We are really happy with the solution. It definitively helped us to reduce the time we spend doing interviews and improve the quality of the developer we get. Those tests are also a great starting point for a technical interview. We also used this solution to understand the actual dev skills of our team and then target resources and classes for them to learn and grow.

Positive: - Set up your own test based on your codebase
- Target candidate test based on your stack
- Test basic to high-level skills
- Get a quick overview of your candidate, easily followup
- Save time in the interview process by quickly filtering out underperforming developers and unmotivated ones.

Negative: - Tricky to send multiple tests to a single candidate (Base + front, Base + back ...)
- Takes some time to correctly set up tests that match what you are looking for. Altho, pre-created tests and exercises definitively help there!
