I saw the job posting on Welcome to The Jungle and applied.
Three days later, I received an email from the recruiter to schedule a call to discuss my experience and the role.
After that, I had a call with the hiring manager. He was very interested in my previous experience and asked a lot of questions.
Following that, I had a technical interview, which they called "building from scratch." This was a 60-minute interview where I had to build something in Xcode from scratch while sharing my screen.
I was told I'd get detailed information about what to build during the interview. This was not the case. I was shown a random YouTube video of Pong and asked to build that.
I struggled through it, wondering how this would relate to Quora at all. I was rejected a few days later.
Do you know what Pong is?
Yeah, the game. Build it from scratch in Xcode during this 60-minute interview, and make sure to share your screen the whole time.
