Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions. We recommend you go through these questions first to resolve your queries. If your question is not addressed over here, please reach out to .

Before the test

You will receive a mail from IBMRecruitment_noreply <enterprise@trm.brassring.com> from where you can find your reference number. You can log into your candidate portal. On the top right-hand side of the portal, click on the bell icon and click Messages. A message Congratulations! is displayed. Open the message. At the bottom, you can find your reference number.

If you face any issues while uploading documents, we advise you to reach out to the IBM Hiring team. ()

If you have concerns with online proctoring, please contact IBM Recruiting at eschoolhiring@in.ibm.com

For any help related to your profile, you can reach out to IBM at .

If you have completed your registration successfully on the IBM portal with all accurate details and are eligible for the program, you will have already received the link. Recommend checking other folders (including spam) in your email service. If you still cannot find the invite, it could mean that you are not eligible for the test at the moment. 

If you miss your test slot, it won't be possible for us to reschedule the test. We recommend you make yourself available for the test 10 mins in advance of your scheduled time slot to not miss taking the test. 

If you have received multiple invites for this test, request you to take either one. Please ensure you don't take this test twice.

During the test

Before losing the internet connection, all the work you submitted will be saved on our servers. After the internet connectivity is resumed, you can log on to the test again (if it is not past the test completion time) and resume answering the questions. The test timer does not stop ticking when you are offline, and the test ends at the scheduled time. We advise you to have a backup internet connection in a worst-case scenario as you can not retake or extend the duration once the given time is over. 

This message usually shows up when you have an unstable internet connection. We recommend you check your internet connection before joining the test to see if your internet is working fine.

This may happen due to poor or no internet connection at your end. We recommend you check your network strength before starting the test. 

Whenever you type the answer for a coding, subjective question or select the answer for a multiple-choice question, the HackerRank interface saves your answer immediately. Learn more about the auto-saving functionality from here.

It is not possible to extend the test duration. We advise you to be prepared ahead of the test to avoid unwanted scenarios like loss of Internet connectivity or electricity to ensure you complete your test in the given time. Please go through the test preparation checklist shared above to help yourself be well prepared for the test.

After the test

IBM will review your test attempt and get back to you with your test result as soon as possible. Request you to be patient during this period.

Note: We advise you to write to us only at the mentioned email addresses. Writing to the general support of HackerRank or IBM will not warrant a reply. We wish you all the best for the test.
