Loved it when I was seeking and later when I was hiring

It's a large time saver, it helps us filter out the candidates. It has greatly speed up our recruitment process.

Pros

What I like the most is an intuitive and easy-to-use interface and a work-flow, in just few steps you can create a well rounded pre-employment tests and invite your candidates to solve them.

Cons

I think it would be great if there was some form of an intellisense on their coding tests.

Great bang for the buck

We use it as a primary filter primarily for Engineering roles.

Pros

Easy to get effective questions to candidates. The content is relevant, the times are realistic, and my team is confident in how it reflects abilities.

Cons

The UI is a bit clunky. It seems like it could be a bit more "modern" with fewer clicks to send tests, and it would be great to see more analytics on test performance as it relates to their universe of people who have used a given question.

Poor, did not do what I was told it would do

Pros

Set up technical tests quickly. One of the directors was quick to call when we had questions. Those were the only positives.

Cons

Was assured by one of the business owners/directors that it's possible to run tests without candidates having an email address to hand (we were running the tests in-house, candidates didn't have access to their email accounts). The reality was that without access to an email account they could not start the test. It caused a lot of disruption sorting that out. Then a candidate accidentally made a typo when writing his address, he couldn't access the confirmation email and we lots the test credit, there was no recovery mechanism.

Easy and Reliable

It has been great!

Pros

It is an easy way to automate candidate testing. It takes time out of my busy schedule as a recruiter so I don't have to follow up with candidates, go through the test results and then share with the team. I love that I can email the hiring managers a link to look at the candidates' results. I don't think this is a "make it or break it" solution to knowing a candidate's technical ability but it is a great foundational examination.

Cons

I think my only concern is that sometimes it gets sent to Junk/Spam folders so candidates don't see it in their inbox. It also randomly started taking photos of the candidates and that was awkward.

Simple and Effective

We found that TestDome significantly improves our hiring process and the quality of candidates that we do hire.

Pros

We use TestDome to screen candidates for new development positions. There are a ton of "stock" questions that are perfectly created to judge a candidates talents and the capability to create our own questions that focus on our unique challenges is a huge bonus. I use a candidates results to quickly screen out those candidates that I don't need to follow up with vs. those that I need to contact immediately.

Cons

We tried to use the TestDome platform for non-technical hiring (customer support) and the stock questions were a little to vague or ambiguous for our needs.
