Process
Was given an hour-long HackerRank assignment. The questions were fairly difficult and long, but doable, and I completed it perfectly.
Recruiter told me they would get back to me to set a meeting to talk details of the job. There was no response for 3 weeks. Finally, I was told the position had been filled and then ghosted.
Questions
Python wrappers, threads, processes, questions about APIs, SQL queries, and LeetCode medium-style questions.
