React Tests for Hiring Engineers

This quiz assesses a candidate's understanding of React (as distinct from general JavaScript or front-end development). It tests basics like creating components and props, managing state, and event handling, and continues to more advanced topics like performance profiling and Hooks.

Build your Test
The react assessment tests a candidate's understanding of behavior and use-cases of common algorithms and the data structures that support them.

What skills does the React test cover?

• Ability to define elements, components, and props using the JSX syntax. Use these to produce a basic static page.
• Creation and manipulation of React state. Add local state to components, hoist global state to root nodes. Understand React's state model and manipulate state correctly (e.g. avoiding direct state mutation).
• Ability to use event handling to take user input and update page contents.
• Use of composition to define components in terms of other components that share functionality.
• Ability to profile the resource usage of a React app. Understand common performance issues and the appropriate solutions.
• Ability to use Hooks to simplify stateful logic and component hierarchies and know how to convert between Hooks-based and traditional React architecture.

Assessments Engineers Actually Want to Take
Engineers don't want to take your outdated coding tests (you know they don't provide true signal anyway). Screen assessments have an 80-90% completion rate, so you don't have to worry about drop off.

Never miss the talented engineers in your pipeline again

Triplebyte tests are adaptive and use a nominal model for scoring. This allows for “partial credit” on multiple choice questions, to help identify unconventional thinkers vs. random guessers.

[After running an A/B test with both tools], I quickly found that the HackerRank signal was awful. People could score 20% or 80% and you still had no idea how good they actually are. But the Triplebyte Screen scores actually gave you insight.
If [the candidate] scores a 4 or 5 on Screen, we make an offer 50 to 60% of the time. "
