Process
I am detailing my experience with their initial "CodeSignal" general coding assessment and their recruiters, who did not address issues with their third-party assessment tool when I reported them.
It had major problems, such as the IDE hanging up and system errors while running code. This confused me and consumed a lot of my time.
Tasks #3 and #4 felt like mini-games. I suspect any average coder could only attempt or finish the first two tasks at most if everything functioned correctly on their CodeSignal platform. It seems impossible to complete all four tasks within the 70-minute timeframe.
Questions
The tasks were of a medium to hard LeetCode type.
