I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NuData Security in May 2019
Interview
Please don't waste time on this company with their take home assignments. I got one interview a year ago and it's perfectly described in previous comment. 1 year later I applied again. Big mistake, another time waste.
They do brief phone call and ask to do a take home test that supposed to take 2-3 hours with 5 questions and give you 48 hours. The questions are about some typical things in web development.
The problem is that you most likely will need to some research, google how to use parts of language and polish things to make it look professional. In reality it takes 2x of time so around 6 hours. After spending more than recommended time I completed all 5 questions with details and the best solution I could come up and compare alternatives online. It was perfectly what was asked and really beyond that.
After submitting the assignment, the first thing is recruiter failed to acknowledge that they got even received an assignment. I sent 2 email to just get confirmation and get timeline. No reply at all. After a week I got a clearly generic email that my application won't be moved forward after 'meeting with the team' (I did not even met a team lol). Zero feedback, no comments, horrible communications from recruiters. Don't waste your time.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at NuData Security (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Initial interview started with a call with the recruiter. She explained that there is a take home test that can be completed within 2 to 4 hours but you're given 24 hours. The test definitely takes more than 4 hours to complete where you have well polished solutions and tests.
After submitting my assignment, I was sent a generic rejection a day later with no feedback. Like the other reviewer, the email said thank you for meeting with the team but I didn't get to that stage either.
It is clear from the other reviews that they're looking for senior developers to join, which is fine. I wish they would say that instead of handing their test to everyone and seeing what comes out of it. I would also appreciate if they would be more realistic with their tests.
I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at NuData Security (Vancouver, BC) in Apr 2019
Interview
I applied through their website, and the whole process took a month and a half. First a 30 minutes interview with a responsible in the HR department, then 45 minutes technical phone interview with a senior developer, followed by a 4 hours algorithms test divided into two sections, mandatory and extra questions. After this stage, there is a last personal interview.
The experience was average for the industry standards, a slow process, an absurd test with questions that don't show your ability for the position, the biased personal interview, and the copy-paste rejection email with no feedback.
