Perl Online Test

About the test:

The Perl Online test uses scenario-based MCQs to evaluate candidates on their proficiency in working with the Perl programming language, including their knowledge of its data types, control structures, and regular expressions. The test also evaluates a candidate's ability to work with Perl modules, handle file I/O, and process text and data using built-in functions and operators. The test includes a coding question to evaluate hands-on Perl programming skills.

Covered skills:

Unix Shell Command in PERL
Anonymous Subroutine in PERL
Numeric Literals in PERL

Nested Arrays
Arithmetic Expressions in PERL

9 reasons why

Adaface Perl Online Test is the most accurate way to shortlist PERL Developers

Reason #1

Tests for on-the-job skills

The Perl Online Test helps recruiters and hiring managers to identify qualified candidates from a pool of resumes, and helps in taking objective hiring decisions. It reduces the administrative overhead of interviewing too many candidates and saves time by filtering out unqualified candidates.

The Adaface Perl Online test screens candidates for the typical skills recruiters look for Perl Developer roles:

Strong Perl and shell scripting skills
Experience with file transfer protocols (FTP, SFTP, SSH, HTTPS)
Object-oriented Perl development experience

The insights generated from this assessment can be used by recruiters and hiring managers to identify the best candidates for the Perl Developer role. Anti-cheating features enable you to be comfortable with conducting assessments online. The Perl Developer test is ideal for helping recruiters identify which candidates have the skills to do well on the job.

Reason #2

No trick questions

Traditional assessment tools use trick questions and puzzles for the screening, which creates a lot of frustration among candidates about having to go through irrelevant screening assessments.

The main reason we started Adaface is that traditional pre-employment assessment platforms are not a fair way for companies to evaluate candidates. At Adaface, our mission is to help companies find great candidates by assessing on-the-job skills required for a role.

Why we started Adaface ->

Reason #3

Non-googleable questions

We have a very high focus on the quality of questions that test for on-the-job skills. Every question is non-googleable and we have a very high bar for the level of subject matter experts we onboard to create these questions. We have crawlers to check if any of the questions are leaked online. If/ when a question gets leaked, we get an alert. We change the question for you & let you know.

Dit zijn slechts een klein monster uit onze bibliotheek met meer dan 10.000 vragen. De werkelijke vragen hierover Perl Online Test zal niet-googelbaar zijn.

🧐 Question

What does the following Perl code print?
Medium Package: Use Base OOPs	Solve
What does the following Perl code print?
Easy Registration Queue Logic Queues	Solve
We want to register students for the next semester. All students have a receipt which shows the amount pending for the previous semester. A positive amount (or zero) represents that the student has paid extra fees, and a negative amount represents that they have pending fees to be paid. The students are in a queue for the registration. We want to arrange the students in a way such that the students who have a positive amount on the receipt get registered first as compared to the students who have a negative amount. We are given a queue in the form of an array containing the pending amount. For example, if the initial queue is [20, 70, -40, 30, -10], then the final queue will be [20, 70, 30, -40, -10]. Note that the sequence of students should not be changed while arranging them unless required to meet the condition. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note: - The first line of the input is the length of the array. The second line contains all the elements of the array. - The input is already parsed into an array of "strings" and passed to a function. You will need to convert string to integer/number type inside the function. - You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases. For the example discussed above, the input will be: 5 20 70 -40 30 -10 Your code needs to print the following to the standard output: 20 70 30 -40 -10
Medium Visitors Count Strings Logic	Solve
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. Example: Input: WWMMWWCCC Expected Output: 4W3C2M Explanation: ‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note: - The input is already parsed and passed to a function. - You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases. - If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’. - If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Perl Online Test in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.

Reason #6

1 click candidate invites

Email invites: You can send candidates an email invite to the Perl Online Test from your dashboard by entering their email address.

Public link: You can create a public link for each test that you can share with candidates.

API or integrations: You can invite candidates directly from your ATS by using our pre-built integrations with popular ATS systems or building a custom integration with your in-house ATS.

Reason #7

Detailed scorecards & benchmarks

Reason #8

High completion rate

Adaface tests are conversational, low-stress, and take just 25-40 mins to complete.

This is why Adaface has the highest test-completion rate (86%), which is more than 2x better than traditional assessments.

FAQ's

Kan ik meerdere vaardigheden combineren in één aangepaste beoordeling?

Ja absoluut. Aangepaste beoordelingen zijn opgezet op basis van uw functiebeschrijving en bevatten vragen over alle must-have vaardigheden die u opgeeft.

Heeft u functies tegen latere of proctoring op hun plaats?

We hebben de volgende anti-cheating-functies op zijn plaats:

Niet-googelbare vragen
IP Proctoring
Web Proctoring
Webcam Proctoring
Plagiaatdetectie
Beveilig browser

Lees meer over de Proctoring -functies.

Hoe interpreteer ik testscores?

Het belangrijkste om in gedachten te houden is dat een beoordeling een eliminatietool is, geen selectietool. Een vaardighedenbeoordeling is geoptimaliseerd om u te helpen kandidaten te elimineren die niet technisch gekwalificeerd zijn voor de rol, het is niet geoptimaliseerd om u te helpen de beste kandidaat voor de rol te vinden. Dus de ideale manier om een beoordeling te gebruiken is om een drempelscore te bepalen (meestal 55%, wij helpen u benchmark) en alle kandidaten uit te nodigen die boven de drempel scoren voor de volgende interviewrondes.

Voor welk ervaringsniveau kan ik deze test gebruiken?

Elke ADAFACE -beoordeling is aangepast aan uw functiebeschrijving/ ideale kandidaatpersonage (onze experts van het onderwerp zullen de juiste vragen kiezen voor uw beoordeling uit onze bibliotheek van 10000+ vragen). Deze beoordeling kan worden aangepast voor elk ervaringsniveau.

Krijgt elke kandidaat dezelfde vragen?

Ja, het maakt het veel gemakkelijker voor u om kandidaten te vergelijken. Opties voor MCQ -vragen en de volgorde van vragen worden gerandomiseerd. We hebben anti-cheating/proctoring functies. In ons bedrijfsplan hebben we ook de optie om meerdere versies van dezelfde beoordeling te maken met vragen over vergelijkbare moeilijkheidsniveaus.
