IrelandPosted Aug 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

After a recruiter call, I had a one-on-one with a senior engineer where the discussion started with my background and then shifted into live coding.

The first coding prompt was a concrete algorithmic task—sorting or merging two sorted arrays into a new array. It was doable enough to get momentum, but the next question was significantly harder, and I couldn’t complete it.

The interviewers were friendly and willing to help with questions, but I still felt the gap once the difficulty spiked. There wasn’t much room to recover after that because the second problem was the decisive part of the screen for me.

I didn’t receive an offer. My honest reflection was that the interview felt fair and interactive, but the difficulty ramp was steep
