An online assessment is a method of evaluating an individual's knowledge, skills, or abilities using digital tools and platforms. These assessments can be used for various purposes, such as educational testing, job screening, or even personality assessments. Online assessments offer several advantages over traditional assessment methods, such as flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. However, they also come with some challenges, such as ensuring the security and integrity of the assessment process and minimizing the risk of cheating or fraud. Overall, online assessments are becoming increasingly popular as more and more organizations and institutions adopt digital technologies for their assessment needs.
Medium level leetcode and then a very basic system design question as a final round interview. Overall, smooth and simple process. Only one technical and it was the first one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you design a system to minimize wait time at a health care center?
[OA] OA was fair. Programming part are leetcode easy and easy-mediums, straightforward simulation, backtracking, dfs, strings, etc. No DP/graphs but ymmv.
[Final interview] (Case Study) I think the interviewer came up with their own prompt. It's mostly discussion-based, with a virtual white board. It's not too technical. I'm guessing its testing your communication/logical reasoning than system design skills. (Pair programming) 1 question, same format as the OA on the same platform, leetcode easy.
[Overall] Technical difficulty isn't bad. Interviewers who are current software devs seemed friendly. Had a good experience, yet got rejected.
First round is a thirty minute phone call with one of their developers. The other part of the first round is a three hour exam with IQ test style logic questions and coding questions.
