About the Next.js test

Hiring a great Next.js developer will lead to your web applications giving a great user experience due to their fast load times and great search engine optimization (SEO). A skilled Next.js developer can also optimize your server-side rendering, implement caching and revalidation, and improve your application’s scalability, as well as streamline the development process and reduce project timelines, resulting in faster time-to-market and cost savings. Additionally, they can create custom solutions that meet specific business needs and integrate well with existing systems.

This Next.js test evaluates a candidate's ability to develop, configure, style, and optimize Next.js applications for production. It covers a range of skills, including rendering and data fetching, static-site generation, server-side and client-side rendering, caching and revalidation, layout design, code splitting, and search engine optimization.

The test also assesses candidates' ability to customize Next.js applications and implement server and client components, among other advanced concepts. Overall, the test evaluates a candidate's proficiency in Next.js development and their ability to deliver high-performance, scalable, and optimized applications.

This screening test will help you identify Next.js developers who possess these skills and can translate them into tangible business results. Candidates who perform well on this test will be able to develop efficient and optimized Next.js applications with seamless navigation and enhanced user experience, ultimately resulting in a better experience for your customers and an increase in your revenue.

Review from

David Felipe C.

VP of engineering, mid-market (51-1000 FTE)

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.

FAQs

An assessment is the total package of tests and custom questions that you put together to evaluate your candidates. Each individual test within an assessment is designed to test something specific, such as a job skill or language. An assessment can consist of up to 5 tests and 20 custom questions. You can have candidates respond to your custom questions in several ways, such as with a personalized video.

A video question is a specific type of custom question you can add to your assessment. Video questions let you create a question and have your candidates use their webcam to record a video response. This is an excellent way to see how a candidate would conduct themselves in a live interview, and is especially useful for sales and hospitality roles. Some good examples of things to ask for video questions would be "Why do you want to work for our company?" or "Try to sell me an item you have on your desk right now."

Besides video questions, you can also add the following types of custom questions: multiple-choice, coding, file upload, and essay. Multiple-choice lets your candidates choose from a list of answers that you provide, coding lets you create a coding problem for them to solve, file upload allows your candidates to upload a file that you request (such as a resume or portfolio), and essay allows an open-ended text response to your question. You can learn more about different custom question types here.
