Question 1
What would you improve in you implementation?
Tip: make your code complex and try to show off on the call lol.
Interview was really fast and the responses for each step were coming within 1-2 days. The technical challenge required me to use a specific technology I wasn't that used to, but it was still doable. I was asked to do the project for 5 or so hours and just write what I would have done if I had more time. Since it required me to learn many new things I took more time with it, but I could still submit it within around 5 days.
Each interview had a very friendly atmosphere and I was in contact with HR in between in case I had any follow up questions.
