You can’t identify the best talent with an interview process built for the stone age

Coding exercises that don’t mimic real work leave you with a weak signal of actual skills.

Time-intensive interviews drain your engineers without guaranteeing better hires.

Generic tools miss critical insights into problem-solving approaches and collaboration skills.

One interview to reveal their full potential:
Live Coding Interviews

Evaluate candidates in a real-world coding environment that mirrors your team’s actual day-to-day challenges.

Traditional Interviews vs. Live Coding Interviews

One was built for today. One peaked in 2015.

Compare
Traditional Interviews
Live Coding Interviews
Skill evaluation
Relies on theoretical or generalized questions that may not reflect real-world job requirements.
Simulates real-world challenges with debugging tools, front-end previews, and interactive coding environments.
Candidate experience
Limited structure, stressful, and time-consuming with unclear expectations.
Provides a collaborative, transparent, and job-relevant experience in a familiar IDE.
Efficiency
Requires multiple rounds, manual evaluations, and repetitive assessments.
Streamlines the process with structured templates, immediate collaboration, and session playback so others on your team can review.
Bias
Relies heavily on resumes and interviewer judgment, which can introduce unconscious bias.
Focuses on objective, skill-based evaluations, reducing bias and prioritizing candidate ability.
Scalability
Difficult to scale due to the reliance on manual processes and scheduling inefficiencies.
Built to scale for high-volume hiring with integrated scheduling, automation, and role-specific interview tools.
