The document discusses plans to improve the technology hiring process at a company. It proposes increasing candidate outreach by 50% through alternative sourcing channels like GitHub and LinkedIn groups. It also suggests introducing coding tests and hackathons to better evaluate candidates' skills and filter out weaker performers. Examples are provided of innovative hiring practices used by other companies, such as predictive candidate engagement software and skill-specific coding challenges.

12. Introduction to Coding Challenges/Hackathons
Evaluation based on Logical Correctness:
Each question has a set of test cases. These test cases are designed to cover all possible scenarios that
may occur in the problem statement.
Code Execution Time:
Code execution time is calculated by taking cumulative against each test case.
Memory consumed in code execution:
Memory consumption is calculated by taking cumulative against each test case.
Size of the code, semantic analysis of code
Advantages
Great way to target top candidates (3-8 yrs. Experience) for a skill
Can be done as real-time problem solving contest, Ux Design Competition, Gamification etc
Take a series of contest for branding & engagement of dedicated skill professionals
This platform supports multiple languages including C, C++, C++, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Perl, etc.
