Technical Presentation

Their approach to picking candidates feels like real-life experience. The interview process had 5 stages: first a phone chat, then an email chat, followed by an interview with managers. They also sent a real-life question 24 hours before the interview.

Coding

It was 2 questions on codesignal. One LC easy and one LC medium. I only got to the first round, which was the coding challenge and got rejected even after solving all the test cases mentioned. The coding challenge by itself was very doable.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Write a program to validate a Sudoku solution.
  • Create a program that parses two strings formatted as hash tables.
