The process as others mentioned consists of 2 or 3 technical steps. General Coding Challenge, in my case handed by proctor test with CodeSign. This is such an underwhelming way to attempt to measure a candidate. This challenge measures only how much you spend time on LeetCode. It follows the same pattern and expects you to do 4 exercises under 1h 10mins. One easy, easy-medium, medium-hard, hard. These expectations are not realistic in real-world situations. Wake up Circle.
Then you have a take-home assignment where they do not mention what they really want you to do. So you have to find out over the internet to try to do well. Honestly, I do not care too much at this point since this is not the type of behavior and company I want to be part of. Even If I passed this step I was not going to move forward. This whole process is unfriendly and frustrating for the candidate.
No questions discussed. I got directly moved to Coding Challenge
