How our Scala coding interview questions work

DevSkiller Scala coding interview questions are powered by the RealLifeTestingTM methodology. Our tests not only assess your candidates’ general knowledge but also their coding abilities in real-world situations. Analyze applicants’ development coding know-how, analytical ability, and programming efficiency.

Caractéristiques principales

  • Determine your candidates’ coding skills and not just their general knowledge
  • Remote testing that can be held at your convenience, anywhere in the world
  • Le RealLifeTestingTM methodology creates a better user experience where candidates can use their own IDE, clone to GIT, run unit tests and access Stack Overlow/Github/Google for research
  • Stringent anti-plagiarism tool that ensure test accuracy
  • Automatically generated results that non-technical recruiters can easily understand
  • Scala coding interview questions for junior, middle, and senior developers

What to look for in a Scala developer

Scala is a general-purpose programming language that provides support for functional programming and strong static type system. The design for Scala began in 2001 by Martin Odersky. The key advantage of Scala is that its functional, object-oriented, and can work with all programming styles.

Experienced Scala developers should have extensive knowledge of the pattern-matching system, and Scala’s uniques case classes. In addition to this, a proficient Scala developer should understand the main object-oriented patterns of Scala; Singleton, Value object patterns, and lazy initialization.

Want proof that our Scala coding interview questions work?

You might feel that our Scala coding interview questions sound like just what your company needs, but it is understandable to be a little apprehensive when it comes to investing your company’s finances. Take a look at what some of our clients have said about us in the past:

Victoria Cyczewska - Spécialiste de l'acquisition de talents à Stepstone Services

"Nous disposons désormais d'un outil qui nous permet non seulement de collaborer pour créer des tests évaluant les compétences techniques dont nous avons besoin pour nous développer, mais aussi de communiquer en interne et en externe (avec les candidats). De plus, notre processus de recrutement technique est désormais plus structuré. Par exemple, nous utilisons les résultats de nos tests techniques pour amorcer la conversation lors des entretiens techniques".

Sabu Pappu - Responsable de l'acquisition de talents chez Veriday

"Nous avons réduit le nombre de rejets techniques, ce qui est très bien. Nous avons constaté une amélioration de 25% à ce stade après la mise en œuvre de DevSkiller. La plateforme nous aide vraiment à évaluer les compétences en programmation des candidats et à fournir une approche logique des compétences en résolution de problèmes des professionnels de l'informatique. DevSkiller nous a fait gagner beaucoup de temps pendant la phase de montée en charge et nous a aidés à inviter des candidats de bonne qualité ayant obtenu de bons résultats au test, ce qui a finalement permis d'améliorer les critères de sélection."

Patrycja Kiljańska - Spécialiste de l'acquisition de talents chez Spartez

"Nous avons remplacé une solution interne nécessitant beaucoup de maintenance par DevSkiller. Notre processus est le même, mais le produit nous donne de meilleures performances. Les résultats sont également beaucoup plus faciles à évaluer."

Questions fréquemment posées

How are DevSkiller Scala coding interview questions evaluated?

Our DevSkiller Scala coding interview questions have been designed from start to finish, to be as automated and simple to use as possible, in order to take the pressure off recruiters. Our aim is to simplify the recruitment of developers and to quicken up the whole recruitment process.

With our Scala coding interview questions, once a candidate has completed their test, or the allocated time has elapsed, then the DevSkiller platform automatically gets to work on evaluating the results. Once the results are in, an automated report is produced on how well the candidate did, designed so that even the most non-technical recruiter will easily be able to understand.

Candidates are evaluated on their coding skills if they have made any errors and the quality of the code itself. They will also be assessed on whether the solutions they have provided would run (an essential factor in all software development). Robust plagiarism features are also implemented to ensure that results are verified and have not been plagiarized from previous tests.

How do candidates take Scala coding interview questions?

Our Scala coding interview questions are accessed remotely, from anywhere in the world. This is a great time-saver when it comes to recruitment testing as it means the candidate can take the test at their earliest convenience, with no waiting around.

When taking a test, candidates can use their favorite IDE and clone the project to GIT afterward. If they prefer, DevSkiller has our own state of the art in-browser IDE, which candidates can use to complete their Scala test. Recruiters can observe candidates taking tests in real-time if they like. During the assessment, candidates have the option to run unit tests to ensure their solutions are working in the required way, much like they would in their real development work.

Dois-je être un programmeur pour utiliser DevSkiller ?

No. We have our own Scala programming experts who have designed our tests to be able to challenge expert developers, while still being simple and easy to use for recruiters who don’t necessarily know much about Scala themselves. This means you don’t have to be an expert to be able to find one for your business.

Our Scala coding interview questions are automated when it comes to evaluation and when generating progress reports for recruiters.

Quelle est la durée du test ?

All our Scala coding interview questions come ready-prepared with default settings. However, if you decide to alter the default settings, then the duration of each Scala test can be easily adjusted. For greater control, recruiters can even attach specific time-limits to each question within a test, if they desire.
