# 🏢 Company OA

> Practice real online assessments on Launchpad, modeled on top companies' hiring tests and mapped to your college's placement calendar so you prep on time.

Launchpad's Company OA gives you realistic online assessment practice for the exact companies visiting your campus. The assessments are modeled on top companies' hiring tests and mapped to your college placement calendar, so you know what to prep and when.

## Realistic assessments

Every Company OA on Launchpad is modeled on the real online assessments top companies use to shortlist candidates. You get the same style of problems, the same time pressure, and the same mix of coding and problem-solving that you will see on the actual test.

## Mapped to your college placement calendar

The assessments are sequenced to match when companies typically visit campuses. Instead of guessing which company to prep for next, follow the calendar and walk into each drive already having taken a mock version of that company's OA.
