Happily using GitHub Classroom for programming assignments for the interview process at work. HR has the URL they send to the assignment, candidates do the work and create a PR, and then HR assigns developers as PR reviewers when the candidate is done.

I was just wondering if GitHub Classroom could be used as an interview step. I've not looked at Classroom very closely but I have a couple of questions; how do you handle the interviewees? Do they have to create their own user or do you re-use some generic ones?

If it works like I expect it to, you should be able to create different "classes" for different roles; SysAdmin, Programmer, Designer, etc. And you could create increasingly more difficult tests; build a web page, personalize it, add a cart, etc.

How are you guys using Classroom?

Does it allow you to set a hard time limit on how long the candidate has to complete the challenge?

Yes you can set deadlines for assignments.
