Process

It was an entry-level position. After submitting my resume, they sent me a HackerRank assessment. The assessment was quite different from the practice assessment available.

In the practice test, I had 3 hours, 1 coding question, 6 multiple-choice questions, and 1 database question. On the actual assessment, I had 70 minutes, 2 coding questions (which I found to be much harder than the one in the practice test), 2 database questions, and the rest were multiple-choice.

I didn't get to that part.
