Entrevista
The interview consists of a timed Codility test, a live coding interview and a test project (a TODO-style CRUD app). The Codility test was pretty simple, it tests for some basic coding skills, no knowledge of esoteric algorithms is required. Be prepared to explain your solution during the next stage of interviews. During the live coding focus on solving the problem any way possible, they don't care about your thought process and you'll fail if you don't solve the problem in time. Be prepared to spend a few days on a test project, make sure you fulfil all project requirements and communicate as much as possible asking questions during the process. They test how you'd work on a real-life project and you communication skills. Be prepared to have a tough conversation about desired rate, they'll try to low-ball you.

Pregunta 1
the easy was the count words in the biggest string
1 HR, 2 leet code, 1 project, 1 project defence
If you fail one of the leet codes you have a chance to re-apply again after a year. It wasn't bad, but its going downhill now. 2022 there weare about 300+ job offerings for my role, now less than 60
After two technical rounds that went over 1.5 hours, in which I was told I was going to move forward I got an email saying that they found someone else.
