SingaporePosted May 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

Before the technical test, I had a quick vibe-check call.

It was basically a conversation to get to know me and my experience, and it also felt like they were assessing how I approached a difficult problem.

The question format they referenced suggested they’d look at my chain-of-thought style when a hard problem came up, not just whether I produced an answer. I went through the screening process but didn’t end up with an offer.

What stuck with me was that the early evaluation centered on thought process, which raised the pressure even before the actual coding happened.
