About

SkillTesting is the ultimate software developer vetting platform. Test, select, and vet multiple candidates’ technical skills using one of our tests, or create your own. With SkillTesting, it’s never been easier to find out how technical your candidates really are.

Not all programmers are created equal
As former programmers ourselves, we know how hard it is to find candidates with the right skills. Many candidates and other technical talent claim to have what it takes, but once hired, reveal major gaps in their respective skill sets. What can you do to ensure this doesn’t happen to you and your business? Use SkillTesting.

A robust set of features
SkillTesting is powerful, predictive and fast. Our vetting platform lets you create a test for candidates, edit code without any browser plugins, grade and compare candidates, and retain important data. With just a few clicks, a candidate can actually prove they’re the right person for the job!
