Software Engineer Interview Experience - United Kingdom
Process
I was asked to complete an OA and achieved the maximum score with 15-20 minutes remaining.
After waiting a week, I received an email stating that they are not proceeding.
It appears the OA serves as an initial barrier before a human reviews your CV.
Questions
A multi-step coding question. It's reasonably simple but has quite a lot of functionality to implement. The problem itself isn't complex, but you have to be able to code somewhat quickly.
