“We will fix the problem of unemployability for software developers in Industry 4.0.,” says Abhishek. “We create a competitive environment for programmers /developers /coders to build real-world applications of industry relevance. They learn on our platform,
they compete worldwide and get ranked as we evaluate their “source code of the application” automatically. This brings prior expertise to them in professional software development that they would be doing in future.”
The Startup has identified that HR hiring agencies cannot guarantee the competence of the candidate, especially software programmers.
“They cannot confirm if the candidate has prior application building experience. They cannot tell if the hacker/developer is a fast learners. They cannot either truly answer if the developer can use programming libraries/frameworks to connect the dots while solving
a business problem,” says Abhishek.
Some of the tests include building a mini amazon.com, a machine learning application,a small version of dropbox, a website, a search application or a logistic mvp.
