Interview
Great interview process overall. A bit challenging. Had interview with the Talent Acquisition manager, took the hacker rank, and two more interviews with SE manager and guys on the team.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions about my experience in the field in relation to what I had on my resume.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Linode
Interview
15 minute "recruiter" screener, 30 minute manager phone call, followed by an inconsiderately long take-home exam riddled with gotchas and undisclosed test cases. They gave 24 hours to complete but a thoughtful completion of the exam would take even the most savvy leet-coders multiple hours, and in my case about 4-5. I think 2 questions would've sufficed.
Absolutely demoralizing to receive a generic rejection after slaving away on the assessment. I do not recommend you waste your time.
