Seriously, been working as a software developer for 9 years now and never passed a single coding test.
The jobs I got were always the ones giving me weekend projects or just no coding test at all.
I have a job opportunity that looks exciting but they sent me this coding test link and I know I’m gonna fail for sure. Any tips aside from the obvious (practicing in advance on leetcode etc)?
I’m bad at tests due to anxiety. Tests usually just elimiate me on the spot so I wish I knew.
Same here. I can’t stand the countdown timer
Never heard of a countdown timer. Usually I’ve seen these either as whiteboard problems in which interviewers will help you if you’re struggling and be forgiving of the stress the situation creates, or you get days to complete a task you turn in later.
The ticking clock is weird and unnecessary
Yep I wish it was like that. These days mostly it’s just links to online coding platforms where you do everything on your own and there’s a ticking clock like this
Yikes
