Frameworks are CodeSignal's suite of validated assessments that are built, proctored, and maintained by our internal team of experts.
What are the benefits of using Frameworks?
- Reduce engineering time spent on building & maintaining assessments
- Screen candidates at scale while reducing time-to-hire
- Increase diversity in candidate pipeline
- Reduce bias by eliminating or supplementing resume review
- Advance candidates with confidence using CodeSignal’s predictive Coding Score
- Improve candidate experience with assessment results candidates can share widely
- Minimize plagiarism with (optional) proctored evaluations
When should I use Frameworks?
CodeSignal's frameworks are ideal for:
- Assessing candidates at the top of the recruiting funnel
- Scaling university, new grad, and early career technical hiring (See General Coding Assessment below)
- Supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) recruiting initiatives
CodeSignal's Frameworks
The following frameworks are currently available:
- General Coding Framework (formerly known as the General Coding Assessment or GCA). The General Coding Framework is the industry standard for evaluating core programming skills at scale. It is ideal for screening early career and new grad candidates at the top of the recruiting funnel. The General Coding Framework includes over 628,000 variations to minimize cheating, and candidates can take the assessment in any of CodeSignal's 45 supported programming languages. To learn more about the research behind the GCA, read our framework paper:
- Industry Coding Framework. The Industry Coding Framework assesses the skills of mid- to senior-level software engineers that have industry experience. To learn more about the research behind this assessment, read our framework paper:
