Process

I only reached the first stage. I was asked to live code a URL shortener. This would have been easy to do, if it weren't for the fact that the entire code had to be written following TDD. This was never mentioned, neither in the screening nor in the job description. I am quite rusty with TDD, so naturally, I failed the test. However, it is quite disappointing that a company of this size would not give a clear explanation of what to expect. Particularly if you are using a technique that is not common and you expect candidates to be acquainted with it.
