How Mercury Insurance builds and upskills technical talent with CodeSignal
Challenge
Mercury Insurance is a long-standing leader in the insurance industry with teams distributed across the US. As the organization continued to modernize its technology stack and expand across a range of data science and engineering roles, the Talent Acquisition team faced two challenges: hiring the right talent with the right skills for their teams, and upskilling engineers and managers to stay current with rapidly evolving technologies—particularly generative AI. The team needed a partner that could both optimize their technical hiring at scale and deliver solutions for ongoing learning and capability building across the organization.
Solution
For hiring, Mercury Insurance implemented CodeSignal’s technical assessments and interviews across a broad range of roles, including data science, data engineering, front-end, back-end, and full-stack engineering. The platform provides a fair and consistent evaluation experience for all candidates, while also giving hiring managers a strong signal of candidates’ skills.
Beyond hiring, Mercury Insurance adopted CodeSignal Learn to support internal upskilling. With many technology leaders having a long tenure at the company, the team wanted an effective and engaging way for employees to stay current with emerging technologies—especially in fast-moving areas like generative AI. Learn’s practice-based approach helps employees apply concepts in real-world scenarios, and the interactive AI tutor, Cosmo, provides real-time feedback and support.
Results
Since adopting CodeSignal, Mercury Insurance has seen process improvements in both hiring and internal upskilling. Both candidates and hiring managers report a fairer, more objective evaluation process for technical hiring. On the learning side, leaders and engineers are proactively requesting access to Learn.
