Got a 730 on CodeSignal. Finished 1 and 2 and got a suboptimal solution for 4. Probably could have made 4 optimal in different circumstances or figured out 3. Not my best hour - went braindead halfway through (haven’t been getting much sleep with newborn). Any chance I’ll get a a phone-screen for L4 (SDE 2) or am I out of luck?
I don’t think. I failed for 735
Sounds good. Kinda what I figured.
I got either 736 or 743 and was invited for phone screen.
Why do candidates and interviewers have such an obsession for LC? This isn’t what will get you the role or what will make you successful on the job.
I agree totally. It’s weird we have to go through an LC gauntlet to get to the in-person interview (where I feel I do better anyway). I feel at a certain seniority level we should skip the code round and just interview.
Exactly, @justapleb!
Are you interviewing for l4?
Yep, L4/L5a though assuming I’ll get L4
I think you’re fine. The cut off to go to the next round is 725
Did they lower the bar? Last year the cut off was 775
