While the weather cools down, things at CodeSignal are heating up—with new features designed to make your hiring process smarter, faster, and more efficient. This month’s highlights:
Early release: Proctoring in live tech interviews
This month, we’re rolling out early access to proctoring for CodeSignal Interview. With this new feature, you can add integrity checks to your interviews. This ensures you’re getting a trustworthy signal of skill from your interview sessions, without interrupting the flow of conversation or requiring tedious manual review afterward.

New Certified Assessments
We’ve expanded the Certified Assessment catalogue again—this time with offerings for both emerging AI-assisted roles and a new skill area that customers have been asking for: code review.
Customers now have access to new assessments, including:
- Code Review Assessment
- AI-Assisted Data Engineering
- AI-Assisted Data Science
- AI-Assisted Data Analytics
Our three new AI-Assisted assessments measure a candidate’s ability to conduct analyses, build data pipelines, and more with the assistance of AI, while still demonstrating foundational knowledge and problem-solving skills.
You can check out these assessments via the Assessment Explorer. Simply go to Assessments → Create and search for the assessment you’re looking for.
