London, EnglandPosted Nov 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first real technical step was an OA with three questions in 60 minutes, and it set the difficulty immediately.

One problem was dynamic programming, and I struggled enough with that one that I didn’t pass all the test cases. The other two questions were a SQL question and an API-based question, and I did pass those.

Even though I was able to get through most of the assessment successfully, the dynamic programming part was the blocker. What surprised me was how much the test outcomes depended on that first problem—because once that piece didn’t work out, I didn’t get to progress.

I didn’t make it to the next stage. Honestly, it was a reminder that even when the later parts match day-to-day SWE work
