Case Study: Nubank improves hiring efficiency and candidate quality with HackerRank

How Nubank Uses Data and Analytics to Measure the Effectiveness of Hiring Strategies

Nubank, one of the world’s largest digital financial services platforms, needed better ways to measure and improve hiring effectiveness across a high-volume, multi-country recruiting operation. Using HackerRank, Nubank leveraged skills data, candidate experience metrics, and interview analytics to support more informed talent decisions and optimize its hiring strategy.

HackerRank helped Nubank build a customized skill catalog and skills ontology, streamline engineering interviews with live coding cases, and speed up decision-making with results available directly on the HackerRank platform. The partnership also improved assessment integrity through AI-driven detection of tab switching and copy-paste behavior, helping Nubank make faster, higher-quality hires while strengthening fairness and efficiency in the process.
