- Passed the first interview.
- Passed the first code challenge (2-hour test with 2 coding challenges).
- Failed the second code challenge, where the interviewer was monitoring my screen and seeing me through my webcam. I got anxious, and I literally couldn't do anything, so I failed the challenge.

Entrevista
The interview process has been structured and professional so far. It started with the initial application and screening, followed by an online coding assessment with algorithm-style questions focused on correctness, edge cases, and problem solving under time pressure. After completing that stage, I was invited to schedule a live technical interview. Communication has been clear, with detailed instructions about the interview format, environment requirements, screen sharing, and expectations around working without external assistance. The process feels rigorous and time-sensitive,.
