Overview
Codility is technical assessment software for engineering hiring. Screen sends coding, SQL, multiple-choice and AI-skill tasks, and Interview runs live technical interviews. The library uses engineering work simulations, and leaked tasks are removed. Plagiarism detection, proctoring snapshots and an AI Copilot with reviewable activity come on every plan. Enterprise adds Skills Intelligence for mapping the skills of your current workforce.
Teams pick Codility when they want realistic engineering tasks rather than puzzle questions. Online plans start at $4,800 a year, or $800 a month for 25 invites a month, and scale from 200 to 1,400 invites a year with 5 platform users (10 at 1,400 invites) and one standard ATS integration such as Greenhouse, Lever or Ashby. Enterprise is quote-based and adds every ATS integration including Workday and SAP, plus SSO and full API access.
