Contest overview and contest creation

Contest overview and contest creation - private or college contests

Our custom-contest platform is a self-service platform. This means you can now create your own contest and add any challenge from our extensive library of 1,300+ challenges across multiple domains to your private contest. After you’ve created a contest, there will be several tabs that you can access: Details, Challenges, Advanced Settings Moderators, Notifications, Signups, and Statistics

To create a contest and add a challenge, you will need to:

Setup a HackerRank developer/community account - www.hackerrank.com/signup or login via https://www.hackerrank.com/login

Create a contest  through https://www.hackerrank.com/administration/contests/create

On the following page please enter the contest name, start/end time, organization type, organization name and click on “Get Started”

After the contest is created, the  contest name and customized URL that you can share will visible towards the upper left corner of the screen.

 You can share your customized url with all coders you would like to invite to your contest. Or, if you want to make your contest public on our college contest page just email us the link to your contest and we will add it on our end.

Adding a challenge

If you left click the Challenges tab you can choose to either add a challenge from our standard library ( search by name) or you can add a custom challenge that you can create via https://www.hackerrank.com/administration/challenges/create .
