Legal defensibility is dependent on a number of factors, many of which are under the control of the employer using the test. HackerRank has gone to great lengths, however, to support the legal defensibility of our certified assessments.

For added assurance of legal defensibility, our Professional Services team can help you conduct a local test validation study.

Yes. You can either add or remove skills from certified assessments. If you want to choose your own questions to measure a particular skill, however, you can work with our Customer Success and Professional Services teams.

We believe that deterrence and monitoring are important tools for ensuring the quality and integrity of test scores. We offer a suite of proctoring and plagiarism features that encourage fairness in the assessment process and provide you with the information you need to confirm the integrity of applicants’ scores. Our certified assessments also include active replacement of leaked questions, which minimizes applicants’ opportunities to benefit from outside help.
