F.A.Q.
Does every candidate have to answer the same questions?
Yes. The HTML & CSS & JavaScript test consists of the same questions for every candidate.
In order to properly compare candidates, they need to answer questions of the same difficulty level, and different questions always mean different difficulty levels.
However, the order of questions and answers is randomized for each applicant.
How should I interpret the exam scores?
First of all, you need to keep in mind one very important thing:
The purpose of this HTML & CSS & JavaScript online test is not to help you find the best developers.
Its purpose is to help you avoid the worst ones.
For example, you have 5 candidates who get scores of 35, 45, 60, 65, and 80, based on a maximum possible score of 100.
We would recommend you invite the last three (those scoring 60, 65, and 80) to a live interview, not just the one who scored an 80/100.
What is the format of the test?
We chose a multiple-choice, or quiz, format for two reasons.
- It removes performance anxiety. Many developers freeze when asked to write code under time pressure while being watched. Picking an answer from a list lets them focus on the problem instead of the stress, giving you a more accurate read on their actual knowledge.
- It tests the right skill for the AI era. Today, most code is written with AI assistance. The skill that matters now is judgment: reading unfamiliar code, spotting bugs, and choosing the right approach. Multiple-choice questions built around real code snippets test exactly this.
What skill level is the test for?
The test is primarily created for mid and senior-level developers.
Resumes are easy to inflate, and "senior" means very different things at different companies. This HTML & CSS & JavaScript skills test is a fast, objective way to find out who can actually deliver what they claim on paper.
