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.

How we design questions

These are just a small sample from our library of 15,000+ questions. The actual questions on this C# Online Test will be non-googleable.

🧐 Question

Easy Arrays and Exceptions Arrays Exceptions	Solve
What is the output of the following C# code?
Medium Multiple Namespaces Namespace Management	Solve
Class Student exists in both firstnamespace and secondnamespace namespaces. Which of the following are the correct ways to use the Student class?
Medium Static and constructors OOPs	Solve
What is the output of the following C# code?
Easy Registration Queue Logic Queues Sorting By Custom Order	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 String Parsing Character Counting	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.

C# Basics
Understanding of OOP concepts (Objects, Classes, Methods)
Proficiency in Inheritance and Polymorphism
Dealing with Errors and Exceptions
Handling Nulls and Null Reference Exceptions
Understanding Garbage Collector and Memory Footprint
Knowledge of Structural and Creational Design Patterns
Experience with C# Multithreading
Understanding of C# Networking
Proficiency in C# Generics

Once the test is sent to a candidate, the candidate receives a link in email to take the test. For each candidate, you will receive a detailed report with skills breakdown and benchmarks to shortlist the top candidates from your pool.

What topics are covered in the C# Online Test?

C# Basics: C# Basics refers to the fundamental concepts and syntax of the C# programming language. It includes topics such as data types, variables, control structures, and basic input/output operations. This skill is measured in the test to assess the candidate's foundational understanding of C# development.

OOP concepts (Objects; Classes; Methods): OOP concepts in C# involve understanding the principles of object-oriented programming, including objects, classes, and methods. This skill is important to measure as it demonstrates the candidate's ability to design and implement modular and reusable code using object-oriented principles.

Inheritance and polymorphism: Inheritance and polymorphism are crucial concepts in OOP. In C#, inheritance allows classes to inherit properties and methods from parent classes, while polymorphism enables objects to take multiple forms. Evaluating this skill helps determine the candidate's proficiency in leveraging inheritance and polymorphism to create more flexible and scalable code.

Dealing with Errors/ Exceptions and Nulls: Handling errors, exceptions, and null values is essential in any robust software development process. This skill measures the candidate's ability to identify and handle potential runtime errors, exceptions, and null references in C# code, ensuring the application's stability and reliability.

Garbage Collector and Memory footprint: The Garbage Collector in C# automatically manages memory allocation and deallocation. It is responsible for reclaiming memory occupied by objects that are no longer in use. Understanding the Garbage Collector and keeping memory footprint in check is crucial for optimizing application performance and preventing memory leaks.

Structural and Creational Design Patterns: Structural and Creational Design Patterns provide reusable solutions to common software design problems. Evaluating this skill allows recruiters to assess the candidate's understanding of design patterns such as Singleton, Factory, and MVC, and their ability to apply these patterns to create flexible and maintainable code.

C# Multithreading: C# Multithreading involves executing multiple threads simultaneously to achieve concurrent execution and improve performance. Measuring this skill helps identify candidates who are proficient in writing efficient and thread-safe code, enabling them to leverage parallelism and optimize resource utilization in multi-threaded applications.

C# Networking: C# Networking involves developing applications that communicate over network protocols such as TCP/IP or UDP. This skill is important to measure as it assesses the candidate's ability to implement networking functionalities, handle client-server communication, and troubleshoot network-related issues in C# applications.

Read more about the proctoring features.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.

I'm a candidate. Can I try a practice test?

No. Unfortunately, we do not support practice tests at the moment. However, you can use our sample questions for practice.

What is the cost of using this test?

You can check out our pricing plans.

Can I get a free trial?

Yes, you can sign up for free and preview this test.

I just moved to a paid plan. How can I request a custom assessment?
