Our take
CodeSignal offers an AI-evaluated, plagiarism-sensitive coding assessment, certification and candidate interview platform that allows companies to quickly pre-screen thousands of potential employees while tackling hiring bias.
The company’s call to action is to empower hiring teams to look "beyond resumes”, which are infamously scan-read for only seconds. The knock-on effect of this is that the best talent often gets overlooked, and the hiring process becomes biased towards details like the university a candidate attended, previous experience, or geographical location rather than their technical abilities. In addition to this, the platform also helps individuals cultivate the skills they need to level up.
CodeSignal’s offering has become popular among some of the tech industry’s biggest names, with companies like Netflix, Capital One, Meta, and Dropbox all using its skills assessments to pre-screen candidates. As the tech industry comes under increasing pressure to remove bias from its hiring process and increase diversity, the value of a CodeSignal platform is only set to go up, especially as AI tools become more accepted within the workplace.
