Three days after submitting my resume, I received an email from a recruiter to schedule a phone call. The link to book the phone call was not working. I replied to her the same day, stating the link was broken. She did not reply.

The next day, I received two emails from Revolut: one with a link to the HackerRank exercise, and another, one minute later, saying they wouldn't be moving forward with my application. I sent them another email to the recruiter, telling her about these two emails, and she never replied.

In summary:

• I received a broken link for stage 1 of the hiring process.
• I received a working link for stage 2 of the hiring process.
• I received a cancellation of the process.

All of this occurred while I did nothing and received no reply from the recruiter.

I understand they receive hundreds of resumes, but as they invited me to the initial phone call, they should at least have explained the confusion with the other two emails.

HackerRank questions: 3 questions with medium difficulty and a little more than 1 hour to solve them.

My advice: read the "Cracking the Code Interview" book and be prepared to solve medium difficulty questions in 20 minutes each.

Topics involved in the questions:

• Grids
• Hash maps
