Taking assessments to highlight your skills
Updated over a week ago

On Pelpr, Software Engineering and Engineering Management candidates have the ability to take our Programming Skills Assessments that help show their coding abilities to employers who are looking to interview them. This is a great way for you to stand out and highlight actual programming ability beyond any previous work experience you may have. Similarly, assessments are available for Dev Ops candidates. However, the assessments made available to Software Engineering, Engineering Management, and Dev Ops candidates differ. Here's how it works:

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I take an assessment?

It can improve your chances of getting hired. Since Assessments were made available on Pelpr, candidates who have earned a badge have been hired more than 2 times as often as those who haven't.

When can I take an assessment?

We recommend taking the assessment early in your promotion period to maximize the benefits of achieving a qualifying result; however, assessments can be taken at any time and they are optional.

Who will see my results and what do they see?

When you earn your badge, companies on our platform will automatically see it on your profile.

Will I get to skip stages in the interview process if I take an assessment?

Each company on our platform manages their interview process, so we can't promise that you’ll be able to skip steps. However, certain employers may feel comfortable moving candidates more quickly through the interview process if they have already demonstrated their programming skills by taking an assessment.

How many times can I take an assessment and in what period?

Each type of assessment can be taken up to 1 time.

Who do I contact if I have a question about my assessment results?
