   I think this project approach is excellent - this seems to map much better to real experience in a job.

   The features they include are nice, but it would be really helpful to have dependency support for languages Scala and Java like IntelliJ does.

   Yep, that's the first thing that came to mind for me too - not sure why they chose to keep it.

   Interesting I suppose, but doesn't this select for candidates that can parse through code that doesn't self document?

   I don't think you have a choice, you'll have to use MapReduce if the data is too big to fit into memory. I believe that's what Facebook and Google do: https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering&

    Thanks, if you mouse-over the Batch and Database, you'll see more categories. Presto is under Batch SQL and Elasticsearch is under Document Oriented. We see Flume, Solr, and Impala a lot but decided to omit them to strike a balance b
