We are delighted to announce that Bridge Labs has officially partnered with DevMatch, a leading platform for developer skills assessment.

We share a common mission: streamlining the recruitment process and providing exceptional experiences for both companies and developers.

This collaboration signifies a significant leap forward in our ability to identify and recruit top African software developers for global companies.

Why This Partnership Matters

Traditional methods of evaluating developer skills must be updated, often relying on lengthy and impersonal coding assignments. These methods suffer from several drawbacks:

  1. Lack of Real-World Relevance: Traditional assessments may not accurately reflect the day-to-day tasks and workflows developers encounter on the job.

  2. Time-Consuming Process: Creating, distributing, and grading these assessments can be a significant burden for both Bridge Labs and our clients, extending the hiring timeline.

  3. Vulnerability to AI Tools: The rise of AI tools like ChatGPT threatens the integrity of traditional assessments, potentially allowing candidates to bypass genuine skill demonstrations.



DevMatch: A Modern Solution

DevMatch addresses these challenges by offering:

  1. Real-World Coding Challenges: These challenges mirror real-world development scenarios, providing a more accurate picture of a candidate's problem-solving and coding abilities.
    The platform allows you to create practical coding challenges tailored to your specific needs, whether it's backend, frontend, AI, or another area. The length of each challenge can be customized by the employer to fit the specific needs of the role.

  2. Flexibility: DevMatch provides an online integrated development environment (IDE) that candidates can use to complete the challenges directly within the platform. However, candidates also have the flexibility to use their preferred coding environment if they choose. This flexibility ensures a familiar and comfortable testing experience.

  3. Streamlined Process: Bridge Labs benefits from DevMatch's automated grading and evaluation process, allowing for faster talent vetting. This translates to a more efficient hiring process, connecting exceptional developers with exciting opportunities quickly. Additionally, DevMatch offers an API for integration with your existing platform or embedding assessments on your website.

Building a More Equitable Tech Landscape

This partnership goes beyond simply improving efficiency. DevMatch isn't just a platform offering pre-built skill-based assessments; it provides the infrastructure for companies to create real-world coding challenges tailored to their specific needs.

Combined with automated workflows and an API for seamless integration, DevMatch offers a modern and efficient solution for assessing developer talent.


A Shared Mission

With this partnership, we simplify operations and provide a streamlined experience so developers can focus on what they do best: software engineering" says Alan Gonzalez, CEO of DevMatch.
