United StatesPosted Mar 2016 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

The process started with a recruiter call, and then I was given a take-home assignment.

A couple of working days later, I got feedback that there were failed test cases, and the process stopped there.

The recruiter had framed the evaluation as being about smartness more than any specific programming language, but the take-home seemed like it would heavily reflect execution and correctness anyway. The recruiter was nice throughout, but the lack of continuation left me with very little to work with beyond the fact that certain tests didn’t pass.
