B: Reports.add(a) is an illegal usage.

C: CustomReport c = Reports.get(0) is legal because CustomReport is a subclass of Report class.

D: CustomReport c = Reports.get(0) is illegal since the compiler does not know that the returning item is a CustomReport. CustomReport c = (CustomReport) Reports.get(0) is legal because casting tells the compiler what is being returned.

Test candidates on core Salesforce Developer Hiring Test topics

Apex Programming: Apex Programming is a server-side programming language used to build robust and scalable applications on the Salesforce platform. It allows developers to extend the functionality, automate business processes, and create custom logic in the form of triggers, classes, and controllers.

Visualforce Pages: Visualforce Pages are used to build custom user interfaces in Salesforce. They allow developers to create web pages with standard HTML tags and incorporate dynamic content using the Salesforce-specific markup language. Visualforce Pages enable the presentation of data, capture user input, and interact with the underlying data model.

Salesforce Lightning: Salesforce Lightning is a modern and intuitive user interface framework that enhances the user experience on the Salesforce platform. It provides a component-based architecture for building responsive web applications. With Lightning, developers can create dynamic and interactive interfaces that streamline workflows and boost productivity.

Salesforce Integration: Salesforce Integration involves connecting the Salesforce platform with external systems, applications, and services. It enables the seamless exchange of data and functionality, ensuring that information is synchronized across systems and processes. Integration allows organizations to leverage the power of Salesforce alongside their existing infrastructure, maximizing efficiency and enabling a unified view of data.

Apex Collections: Apex Collections provide a powerful way to store and manipulate sets of data in Salesforce. They include List, Set, and Map objects that enable developers to work with multiple records, unique values, and key-value pairs respectively. Apex Collections allow for efficient data handling, iteration, and data manipulation operations, enhancing the performance and functionality of Apex code.

Batch Apex: Batch Apex allows developers to process large volumes of data in a controlled and asynchronous manner in Salesforce. It enables the execution of operations, such as data manipulation, calculations, or updates, on multiple records in a batch fashion. Batch Apex is essential for efficiently handling bulk data processing and ensuring the system's scalability and performance.

Visualforce Input Tags: Visualforce Input Tags provide a range of form input elements that can be utilized to create user-friendly interfaces in Salesforce. They allow developers to capture user input, validate data, and pass values to the underlying Apex code for processing. Visualforce Input Tags enable the creation of interactive and responsive forms, enhancing the overall user experience.

Visualforce Charts: Visualforce Charts enable the graphical representation of data in Salesforce. They provide various chart types, including bar, line, pie, and scatter charts, to visualize data trends, relationships, and comparisons. Visualforce Charts facilitate data analysis, improve data-driven decision-making processes, and enhance the visual appeal of Salesforce applications.

Workflow Rules and Actions: Workflow Rules and Actions automate standard Salesforce processes based on predefined criteria. They enable the automation of tasks, field updates, email notifications, and other actions based on specified rules. By leveraging Workflow Rules and Actions, organizations can streamline their business processes, increase efficiency, and ensure consistent data handling within Salesforce.

Salesforce Functions: Salesforce Functions provide declarative formulas and expressions that can be used to perform calculations, transformations, and logic-based operations within Salesforce. They offer a wide range of capabilities, including data manipulation, validation, conditional statements, and mathematical calculations. Salesforce Functions empower developers to build powerful and dynamic formulas and expressions to automate complex business logic.

How to use Salesforce Developer Test in my hiring process?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
