HackerRank

We're building assessments that feel like the actual job, with the tools you'd use on it. x.com/rvivek/status/…

Most interviews still don't test how developers work with agents. To create an interviewing experience built for the agentic era, we had to change three things: > Tasks: LeetCode puzzles → Real bugs in actual codebases > Evaluation: Functional correctness → AI fluency and judgment > Experience: Simple code editor → Agentic development environment 0:26 - The setup 2:01 - Exploring the codebase with AI 4:40 - Generating a plan with the assistant 6:07 - Interviewer asks questions about the plan 14:17 - Build phase 18:37 - Interviewer asks questions about the code

@space_techy Hi Nikhil, submissions are now closed, thanks for participating! 🙌🏼 We’d love to see what you built, feel free to share it here & tag us. We’ll be back with another edition of Orchestrate soon, hope to see you then!

@hackerrank I was a bit late to submit my zip for hackerrank orchestrate hackathon Can I still submit? I started this morning only but I had it finished but my file zipping took time So can you guyzz do something?

A few weeks back we hosted university recruiting leaders from Microsoft, Google, Nike, Uber, IBM, Cisco, Wipro, CRED, and more in Bangalore. University recruiting is where companies compete hardest for technical talent. We had good conversations around how to find next-gen talent, nurture it, and ensure assessments are trustworthy in an era where AI makes plagiarism trivial. Bangalore was first. More cities coming!

I'd much rather hire an AI-native junior developer today than a senior who refuses to work with AI. The junior who's reviewed 1,000 AI outputs and knows the fundamentals beats the senior who's written 1,000 lines by hand.

Writing code used to be the job. Now AI does that. We're hosting Orchestrate, an agentic hackathon where you build an AI agent in 24 hours, then defend every decision you made to an AI judge. Win up to $1,000 in AI tools, 1:1s with industry experts, opportunities at leading tech companies, and merch you can't buy anywhere else. Registration closes April 30.

Opus 4.7

Next week, our team will be at the 41st @SIOPtweets Annual Conference in New Orleans (April 29–May 2), and we can't wait. We're thinking a lot about what it means to hire for the agentic era -- how do you assess for it? How do you know who's going to thrive when AI is part of the team? These are the conversations we're most excited to have with I-O psychologists, TA leaders, and anyone else wrestling with the future of work. Come find us at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center!

Excited to be heading to Seattle next week for @FD1conference at the Seattle Art Museum. HackerRank is the title sponsor and I am taking the stage to talk about what it actually means to hire for the agentic era, why the traditional technical interview is broken, and what leading companies are doing differently. If you're going to be there, come find us. Would love to connect. fromdayone.com/conferences/20…

@ihonomic We won't be providing any API access, you are free to use any tool of your choice.

@hackerrank hi, quick question: Do we get paid API access to any of the listed tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex? This would be helpful on that day.

The role of a developer has changed. You're not just writing code, you're orchestrating agents. Introducing HackerRank Orchestrate, a 24-hour hackathon to design, build, and ship an AI agent that solves real-world problems.
