CodeFights Launches CodeFightsR To Deliver Data-Driven Skills-Based Recruiting

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- CodeFights today announced the launch of CodeFightsR, a skills-based recruiting platform for modern hiring teams. CodeFightsR matches employers with technically pre-screened talent from its active community of over a million developers and provides advanced assessment tools to efficiently test and interview candidates. The data-driven approach enables businesses to dramatically improve their hiring process and make better hiring decisions.

Identifying qualified technical talent in a market where everyone has the same resume and LinkedIn profile can be tough and time-consuming. CodeFightsR cuts through the noise. The platform connects you with a large pool of brilliant technical talent whose programming skills are vetted by an advanced skill evaluation system. It improves the efficiency and consistency of your internal evaluation process with state of the art technical assessment tools. And it provides personalized matches for your open roles by putting your team's own assessment data to work with an intelligent machine learning algorithm, which can reveal unknown biases that occur in the hiring process and help companies overcome them moving forward.

"Just two percent of candidates look good on paper, leaving tons of engineering talent left untapped," said Tigran Sloyan. "In revamping our recruiting platform, our goal was to create a recruiting process that surfaced the best candidates and to enable a completely seamless hiring experience."

"The engineers we've hired through CodeFightsR would have been impossible to connect with in a meaningful way without them," says Melanie Thomas, Technical Recruiter at Evernote. "Their scoring system is a great indication of skills and helps us have a deep technical conversation from the moment we connect with candidates."
