I'm interviewing for a SWE internship role at Plaid. I was told that for this coding exercise interview, it is not "academic" in nature but rather "pragmatic". What does that mean? Does it mean it's not LeetCode-style questions, but rather like building out an API or something of that nature? #plaid #intern #interview
Based on wording, that makes sense; it might not be so much as a full api, but it may be like Stripe's interview questions (Google those)
or like Stripe's HackerRank maybe? I've done one of those before.
