   Solid Skill Testing Platform — Good, but Not Perfect for Every Hiring Need

   We’ve been using TestGorilla as part of our hiring process to screen applicants before bringing them into interviews, and it’s proven quite useful. The idea is simple but helpful: instead of spending hours reviewing resumes, you give candidates a relevant test right away. Seeing how people perform on real job-related tasks gives us a much clearer picture early on.

   The test library is broad, covering everything from coding challenges and software proficiency to logical thinking and communication skills. Setting up and sending tests doesn’t take long, and the results are laid out in a clear way that makes comparison between applicants straightforward.

   Where it falls a bit short is in the depth of some tests — a few feel like they’re too surface-level to really separate top performers from average ones. Creating your own custom assessments is possible, but the interface for doing that could use refinement. Also, once you scale up hiring, costs add up — especially if every team needs access.

   Overall, TestGorilla adds real value to the recruiting process by helping weed out unfit candidates early and giving objective data on skills — which is why I give it 4 out of 5 stars.

   👍 Pros:    Clean dashboard makes it easier for hiring teams to review re

   👎 Cons:    Custom test creation could be more intuitive

• Need advice on hiring process for dev team

  What I had in mind was using either SHL-style aptitude tests, or third party assessments like testgorilla.com rather than a take-home exercise that I'd be moderating.

• React scrimba course

  I just wanted to know if anybody took both or the react-tutorial.app course. I mostly like the flashcards part of the course. I was thinking of taking the Scrimba course and just using the other courses study materials. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Current self taught developers who started of with no knowledge and then used a large free course online. How much of your knowledge came from said course

  The Jad Joubran courses on the other hand really upped my skill level and helped me make the jump from passive learning, exercises and very small projects to making legitimate web apps. That was probably the biggest/scariest jump I've made in my learning journey, and without those courses and the hands-on skill checks and projects he makes you do, I wouldn't have gotten to where I am (which is close to finishing...

• What are some good online sources/courses for learning React?

  I learned through https://react-tutorial.app/ and absolutely loved it. I'm also a hands-on guy. Source: about 3 years ago

• I'm having difficulty learning react

  Try this and see if this learning method works for you (first 70ish lessons are free): https://react-tutorial.app. Source: about 3 years ago

• Learning React

  React-tutorial.app is a great step by step one, although you do have to pay for it. If you're comfortable learning things based off documentation that should work as well. Source: about 3 years ago
