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)?

        Currently, we have no open positions.

        When we have, we simply look for old projects which people have done and ask them some basic programming questions in interview.

        As for the interrogation, if the cops call me instead of a hiding oversmart ass, I will answer them about my ‘statistics’ of employees!

      Yeah and how many applicants do you have a day? Hundreds? Tens? How long is your average posting open?

      Cause I do interviews as well - the candidates are many and the positions few.
