Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was invited to take a HackerRank test a week after applying online.

There were two medium-level questions in the test, and I was given three hours to complete them.

While these were understandable after some thinking, it would have been good if the questions were written more clearly.

Questions

Q: Write an algorithm that can calculate the number of folds in a protein sequence.

Q: Write an algorithm that replaces words in a paragraph with corresponding words from a thesaurus.
