Coding Coding
I had 20 minutes to complete 3 code reviews of react components. I was shown code and needed to find bugs and performance issues, but I didn't get to see the code running and it had no description. I felt this was not enough time for a code review. Then, I had 30 minutes to solve some challenges; I only finished one. It had a description and a simple function to complete, and it was medium difficulty.

Technical Coding
I was interviewing for Ten-x, and it was a Codepad interview. It started with some really basic questions that didn't seem to have anything to do with front end development, which made me wonder what the role was actually about. I managed to solve most of the questions within the given time. Unfortunately, I never heard back from Karat or Tenx, despite repeatedly emailing the recruiter and Karat support. There was no response.

Behavioral Coding
We had a 15-20 minute initial chat for general questions, followed by a 30-60 minute session where we went over the solution for a coding test. It was live coding with screen sharing, but you could use Google and take notes on paper. People spoke clearly and you didn't need to share your screen.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Can you tell me about server demand and its various cases?
