   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

  Is this a monorepo setup? It looks like one from the graphics. I also think when it comes to these SaaS starter kits its helpful to have visuals of the out of the box look and feel. I would also recommend creating a docs page. For example I've used this a few times https://usegravity.app/ and the thing that sold me on it is the Docs, it gives the feeling that its very robust. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• 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. I also remembered doing an online knowledge test of various web technologies when I used to be a web-dev - which could be useful for assessing Unity/C# knowledge. Source: almost 4 years ago
