Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States

Process

The pre-screen take-home test process is pretty ridiculous.

You are given a four-part problem where the first part is trivial, and then the second part is like a LeetCode Hard. You can't proceed to the final two questions without getting the second one correct.

I was rejected two days later with an automated response. I totally understand that they must be inundated with submissions, but I wish they asked a series of LeetCode-type problems, the kind you'd see in other interviews, or if they'd allow for more time to actually think through the problem.
