CodeSignal, the online assessment platform for technical talent, just raised $25 million in a Series B funding round backed by early Uber investors Menlo Ventures.

“The pandemic has further accelerated the digital transformation that has been happening over the past few decades leading to a sharp increase in demand for developer talent,” said Tigran Sloyan, CEO of CodeSignal, adding that standard methods of recruitment were “failing everyone”.
“Highly qualified candidates are suffering because they get locked behind their resumes, recruiters are suffering because they spend time with unqualified candidates, and engineering managers feel the burden of spending countless hours on interviews that lead nowhere,” he added.
As well as Menlo, the firm also received funding from Capital One Ventures, CM Ventures, Human Capital, TripHammer Ventures (Alumni Ventures Group) as well as existing investors such as e.ventures, A Capital, Felicis Ventures and Correlation Ventures.
