I sense there are doubts about hiring you. What is the tell? Another live coding challenge is not the kind of deal-breaking round a company should opt for, if you passed the other 4 rounds. Also not a deal-making round if you failed the other rounds. (It's just a smoke-test.) Assuming there are indeed internal doubts, then chances are there's a person in power who is casting those doubts. Could be for example there's a preferred candidate who that person in power already set their eyes on. And the inexperienced hiring manager is not seeing that. Good luck either way. Edit: I would probably ask which topics the earlier test missed, and whether it's possible to hop on a call with <insert developer name here> to share your thoughts about those topics instead.
