HackerRank helps thousands of companies like OpenAI, NVIDIA, and Amazon hire developers based on their skills vs. pedigree, and also nurtures a community of millions of developers to upskill themselves to become next-gen developers.
The people at HackerRank care deeply about their work and have an extremely intense work ethic. In many companies, speed & quality is a tradeoff.

The only way to make this happen is if you truly love your craft and are deeply committed to growth.
