Using URHIRED AI with HackerRank
HackerRank covers two very different situations: live interviews with someone watching, and timed assessments you take alone. Check which one you are in before you start.
Audio
For live rounds, the call runs elsewhere — audio follows that platform. Timed assessments have no audio at all.
Screen sharing
HackerRank runs in a browser. For live interviews you may also be screen-sharing over a separate call.
URHIRED AI running alongside HackerRank: the HackerRank window on the left and the overlay on the right, with the coding surface open.

- 1
Check whether the session is proctored
HackerRank offers proctoring features. If your invite says the session is monitored, that is a disclosed condition of the process.
- 2
Snip the problem
⌘⌥⇧G over the problem statement.
- 3
Work in their editor
Type the solution into HackerRank's editor and run the provided test cases before submitting.
- 4
Read the constraints
HackerRank problems state input bounds explicitly. Those bounds usually tell you which complexity class is expected.
Surfaces that matter here
Worth knowing
- HackerRank assessments are often proctored with webcam and tab monitoring. Read the invite carefully.
- The platform runs your code against hidden test cases — passing the samples is not the same as passing.
- For live HackerRank interviews the interviewer watches through the platform, similar to CoderPad.
