I was asked to take their skills assessment and received a half-hour phone call interview conducted by one of their developers, Shay. Shay was awesome, and I enjoyed the phone call with him. He made the work at Epic sound very appealing, and I would have definitely accepted an offer. I felt like I underperformed in the skills assessment, so I wasn't surprised that I didn't get an offer.

Skills assessment: Be able to manipulate strings and integers in a language. Make sure you are comfortable coding in a notepad-like environment. You have the option to choose from about 7 different languages, including Python, C, C++, C#, and Javascript, among others. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Do you want to be a developer long term?
