Process

After submitting my application, in 5 minutes or so, I received an email with a HackerRank test link for an online test. It felt like a bot just clicked a button to send the test to any applicants. After a while, I received another email from a Fortinet recruiter about the online test. To this point, everything was bot/AI driven.

Questions

Total 14 questions in 120 minutes, straight from HackerRank. It's not very relevant to the job I applied for, if I may say so. It came with 10 mixed multiple-choice questions, with typical cognitive questions like those from middle school and some basic coding questions, and 4 coding problems.

Most questions were the same as those already posted on other discussion boards. For example, one question was about a father's age with some information from his son's age and the father's lifespan. Another was a physics question about speed and distance.

The 4 coding questions needed you to read the API requirements, i.e., what result format was needed.
