Senior Frontend Engineer Interview Experience - Madrid, Spain

Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
It's an absurd process.
It takes a long time, with LeetCode-like exercises which will be of no use for a frontend position.
If you don't pass the first coding challenge, they won't inquire anything else about how you work.
Not recommended.
