Ask HN: Do you know a good online tool for assessing developers

Posted by sonsofhn on Monday December 09, 2013 @08:09AM
from the ask-hn dept.

We are thinking about adding a test to our interviews when hiring developers. We hire mostly .NET and Java developers. Is there a site you have used and recommend?

I have not used a site specifically, but when I interview developers, apart from the normal technical questioning on their CV, I get them to design a simple object diagram, and then lead them to a PC. I ask them to code it test first. We observe them doing it to see how comfortable they are with the tools and that they can even complete the code for the design.
