Our Entry-Level R Coding Test is designed to help hiring managers and recruiters assess candidates’ basic programming skills in R. This test focuses on evaluating a candidate’s ability to program a small algorithm using the R programming language. By providing a short and straightforward coding task, this online assessment allows you to identify developers who possess the essential R skills required for data analysis, data science, and machine learning roles.
Whether you are hiring data analysts, data scientists, machine learning experts, or professionals in related fields, our Entry-Level R Coding Test is a valuable tool for screening candidates effectively. Make informed hiring decisions with our tailored assessment that targets your organization’s specific needs.
Coding Question
Data analysts, data scientists, machine learning experts, statisticians, economists, bioinformaticians, and any other roles requiring entry-level knowledge of R.
This R coding test forms part of our Coding: Entry-Level Algorithms test.
All entry-level coding languages are now centralized in a single, language-agnostic test to ensure hiring developers is simpler than ever. Offer your candidates a choice of 19+ entry-level coding languages in one test.

R is a popular open-source programming language widely used for statistical analysis, data visualization, and machine learning. R is highly sought after in industries like finance, healthcare, and e-commerce.
Strong foundational knowledge of programming in R is essential for junior programmers. Those candidates are able to hit the ground running and set themselves up for further professional growth.
This R test gives candidates 10 minutes of time to complete a straightforward coding task involving entry-level algorithms in R. The code is evaluated against a set of test cases, some of which are available to the candidate to determine if they are on the right track.
This is a great initial screening test that allows you to effectively screen candidates based on essential R programming skills.
We recommend combining coding tests with at least one of our cognitive ability tests evaluating numerical or analytical skills.

TestGorilla’s tests are created by subject matter experts. We assess potential subject-matter experts based on their knowledge, ability, and reputation. Before being published, each test is peer-reviewed by another expert, then calibrated using hundreds of test takers with relevant experience in the subject.
Our feedback mechanisms and unique algorithms allow our subject-matter experts to constantly improve their tests.
TestGorilla helps me to assess engineers rapidly. Creating assessments for different positions is easy due to pre-existing templates. You can create an assessment in less than 2 minutes. The interface is intuitive and it’s easy to visualize results per assessment.

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.
