They automatically sent me a coding challenge after I applied. I knew this would probably be a waste of time, but I have a lot of time on my hands at the moment so gave it a go. The test was an hour long, I completed it - fair enough if it wasn't to their standard - but there was no acknowledgment of receiving it. Just got a generic rejection a couple of weeks later. Don't bother - the arrogance of having AI send you a task taking an hour of your time when no human on their end spends even a second reviewing you... what's the point?

First step is a takehome React challenge after speaking with the recruiter. Nothing complicated. Took less than 1hr.
Next step is a live coding screen with an engineer. I did not feel this was a good assessment of a candidate's abilities. Basically, they want you to implement a lot of–albeit, relatively simple–functionality in ~50 minutes, which I feel like the only way to do so is by cutting tons of corners. Even then, I wasn't able to get to a working implementation. They didn't care much about edge cases, React best practices, implementing good UX, etc. and just wanted to see working code quickly. All in all it was relatively simple functionality, but a lot for a 1hr interview. IMO not a great indicator for whether a candidate can succeed in the role to write good, modular, clean code.
Spec was relatively clear, and there wasn't much need or opportunity for collaboration with the interviewer. There was a lot of silence throughout the interview.

Implement functionality for creating, editing, deleting elements in a list based system (ie similar to a todo list). Requires multiple components, stage management, and input handling.
I applied online and received the online assessment immediately. If you pass the OA, you can move on to the phone interview, but I didn’t pass. The assessment had two questions: the first was a straightforward algorithm coding problem, and the second involved React—state management and component building. The React question was well-structured and formatted. If you are familiar with React and have solid experience, it should be manageable. I was able to handle the initial framework setup, but I struggled to get the detailed rendering to work.
Following my initial application, I was prompted to complete a technical assessment via CodeSignal. This evaluation consisted of a rigorous, one-hour coding challenge requiring the development of a ReactJS application inclusive of comprehensive unit tests.
