Process

The hiring process is too complicated. It takes about a month, or maybe more.

HR is totally fine; they are super nice.

The first technical interview was fine.

I was given an illogical task: to create a Match-3 game. I completed it with very good optimization.

However, when discussing the task, I found the technical lead to be unqualified. He was a little angry and didn't even look at me.

Simply put, if you want to pass the code test, don't do it in a good way.

Also, if you pass the test and the code, you might fail the "culture fit" assessment. So, don't waste your time, or ask them to confirm all HR steps and the "culture fit" assessment before you waste your time on the technical test.

The team leads there will not hire you if you have very good technical skills.

I think it would be much better to apply through a recruiter.

Questions

It's very simple questions about shared pointers and how to write good code.
