Interview
Online, either interviewer won't show up or false interviews are conducting. They intentionally take many people for interviews just to show fake hype to clients. False company should be banned from operating. I escalate this to FTC in US gov as per jurisdiction.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Turing in Jun 2021
Interview
Interview started with the practical test for first 30 mins followed by Theory Q/A for another 30 mins. Interviewer was on time. He assigned me a small practical test which I needed to complete in any programming language without any help from internet via screen sharing.

Interview
Horrible!
During my "Live" (why quoted - below) Coding Challenge, while working on the second task, I had to fix THEIR own issues with the testing system:
- their parser of the input data was NOT working, thus I had to replace it's logic with the hardcoded test data.
- the pre-defined arguments for the function you're expected to write were not enough to solve the issue (specifically, the only argument provided to the function-to-be-implemented was of type "int []". It's impossible to figure out the size of a C-array in C++ without explicitly providing it e.g. as a second argument. Or, you should use std::vector<int> instead)
Finally, when I submitted my second task to the system I got "timeout" response, even though there were still some seconds left and I spent last minutes writing comments for them to fix their(!) issues.
Another weird thing was that in their email it's stated that the interview would be "held over a video conference. During the interview, you will be asked to share your screen and webcam", but in fact no one contacted me at all, I solved the challenge on my own, without any web-conference/web-cam/talking/chatting. The only "live" element was the timer, preventing me from spending more than half an hour on this stupid platform.
