Had an interview with FAANG the other day. They sent a screening HackerRank.
Got rejected because I only passed 3/7 unit tests because I didn't fix a bug that I was seconds away from fixing.
The sad part is the code was well architected, well-made, idiomatic Python that showed my production experience with it.
- high_byte 5y agothat's a stupid way to interview. is that a US thing or do they do it all around the world? I've never seen it around my group, but it definitely doesn't reflect real job tasks, where you can google, pause, have coffee and ice cream breaks. what kind of job gives you seconds to finish tasks like an Amazon packaging line?
- tudelo 5y agoFrom my experience the only "FAANG" that has tried to get me to do a hackerrank was the one you listed in your last sentence so you might have hit the nail on the head.
