Process

I applied online and was contacted by HR within a week.

The first step was a phone interview. I was asked to talk about my resume. Specifically, they were interested in a project I had completed and the way I balanced the group dynamics in my work environment.

The phone interview included one technical question. It wasn't very stressful; the interviewer was quite friendly.

The next part of the interview process is an online assessment. It has four parts: speed math picking up a made-up computer language coding

The speed part is only two minutes long and consists of quick math questions. The other three sections don't have time limits, but you are scored on speed and correctness.

The math section is pretty straightforward: arithmetic, algebra, recognizing sequences of numbers, and a few riddles.

The section where you learn a new language (M) is a logic test.

The coding section has four different tasks to code. They give a list of languages they want you to code in, but also say it's fine to use pseudo-code. The list of languages included C++ and Python.

One task involved writing a program that, given someone's weight, could match it with a set of weights using the smallest number of weights. Another one consisted of scoring a game board (like a large version of tic-tac-toe) given a set of rules.

Questions

An apple is $0.40, a banana is $0.60, and a grapefruit is $0.80. How much does a pear cost?
