Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online and, after two weeks, received an online assessment. I did not know the OA expired after seven days, and as a result, I missed the first OA.

I took the next one. It featured algorithm questions similar to LeetCode, but the questions were verbose and took time to fully understand.

Questions

I don’t remember, but it was a LeetCode-style question, though not concise.
