Recommended Time in Question Creation and the Library

To make it easier to choose the right questions for your screening tests, we’ve added Recommended Time to the question creation process and enabled the ability to sort questions using Recommended Time.

We have updated all questions in HackerRank library with a recommended time to complete the question. We’ve also performed a one-time update on your custom questions. The time recommendations for custom questions were set based on the amount of time it took 10 or more candidates to solve the question correctly. 

For custom questions where fewer than 10 candidates have completed the challenge correctly,  the Recommended Time is calculated based on attempt data for HackerRank Library questions of the same type. In this case, the Recommended Time reflects the amount of time it took most candidates to solve the same type of question correctly.

With this update, you can easily adjust the Recommended Time by editing the question:

You can also sort questions according to Recommended Time in the Library:
