When we started building HackerEarth, our mission was clear—to help you become a better programmer. Four years and a million users later, we’re well on our way to achieving that goal.

Last year, we launched Code Monk, a weekly tutorial series covering Computer Science fundamentals, accompanied by coding contests to test your knowledge.

23 topics. 27 weeks. 14,661 participants. The response was overwhelming, and now we’re back with an exciting update: Code Monk v2.0 – bigger, better, and more fun!

What is Code Monk?

Code Monk is a weekly series designed to improve your programming skills. Each week, access tutorials on topics like Basic Programming, Algorithms, Data Structures, and Maths.

At the end of the week, test your understanding with a programming contest. For some complex topics, you’ll get two weeks to prepare. Climb the leaderboard and win t-shirts, vouchers, and more!

What’s new in Code Monk v2.0?

To spice things up, every 4–5 weeks you’ll face a CheckPoint contest—a challenge that includes all previously covered topics.

We've been busy at HackerEarth Recruit for the past few months and we have some exciting news—new pricing plans! We have switched from the current pay-as-you-go pricing plan to a subscription-based plan. The new pricing plan offers three subscription types that are tailor-made so that you pay only for the options that you require. The subscription types are designed to integrate seamlessly with your requirement needs. Custom plans can be designed to suit specific requirement needs.

So what changes have we made?

We have introduced three subscription types—Free, Startup, and Enterprise. With each of these subscription types, you need not predict the number of invites that you require during your recruitment season. Based on the type of subscription that you choose, we will load your account with a predefined number of invites. We have no limits on the number of invites because we have introduced a flexible billing plan which charges you based on your usage. The billing system is automated thus reducing the number of times that you have to log in. At the end of each billing cycle, your online invoice is delivered automatically to your inbox.

New Plans

1. Free Plan

   The Free plan is suitable for organizations that aren’t hiring actively. The features of this plan are as follows:

   • You can sign up and start using our platform immediately
   • You will get 5 test invites and 3 interview invites every month
   • You can add up to 2 administrators

   After you have used up all your invites, you can seamlessly upgrade your plan to keep using the platform. Alternately, you can choose to use the platform next month when you receive next month’s invites.

2. Startup Plan

   The Startup plan is suitable for organizations that have smaller hiring needs, such as hiring individuals or building small teams. The features of this plan are as follows:

   • Create tests
   • Schedule interviews
   • Access the HackerEarth library
   • Add up to 5 administrators from your organization with different levels of access
   • Choose to start your subscription by adding your preferred payment method

   After you start your subscription, you will receive 20 test invites and 5 interview invites every month.

3. Enterprise Plan

   The Enterprise plan is a value-for-money plan that is suitable for organizations that are at the peak of their hiring season. These plans are also suitable if you are building big technical teams and have a large number of assessments and interviews to conduct.

   The features of this plan are as follows:

   • Create tests
   • Schedule interviews
   • Access the HackerEarth library
   • Access Recruit API
   • Add up to 10 administrators from your organization with different levels of access
   • Choose to start your subscription by adding your preferred payment method

   After you start your subscription, you will receive 50 test invites and 15 interview invites every month.

In both the Startup and Enterprise plans, you can sign up for a free, 14-day trial during which you can use up to 15 test invites and 3 interview invites.

After you have used up your monthly invites, you can continue using the platform. However, you will be billed for the additional invites that you use. View the Billing & Usage page to monitor your usage.

None of the above? Customize plans for your needs!

Introducing a customizable plan for your custom needs.

We realize that every company is unique and we want to meet all your needs. Therefore, if none of our standard paid plans suit your recruitment needs, we can create a custom plan for you.

After you sign up, you will receive a free, 14-day trial. During this trial, you can do the following:

• Use up to 15 test invites and 3 interview invites
• Use all the features of the Enterprise plan

An account manager from the HackerEarth team will be in touch with you to create your custom plan. You can also choose to switch to a standard subscription plan at any time.
