HubSpot Software Engineer interview experience

The scoring wasn’t just a straightforward points total, and the structure was four levels, each worth a significant chunk of points, with a specific minimum score needed to pass.

By the time I finished, I felt like I’d made it through the hardest part of the flow—getting to a passing score within the time limit—rather than hitting a wall on the technical content.
