same here....The feedback was the code was not optimized. My argument was u expect 3 questions to be solved within 60 min and not 1. Hopeless system.

Not bad in my experience. It's reviewed by a human. Write comments talking about your approach and solution. Show that you understand the problem. Write time/space complexity of your solution in a comment I solved debug problem, solved one other, and the 3rd was not correct for all test cases. I explained brute force solution in a comment for that one. Passed, went onsite and got offer. Good luck

Codility reviewer here, if you get 100% you pass automatically, if you’re below 60% you’re rejected automatically, in between you go through the review. Most of candidates pass the review. Also those 2 coding tasks are leetcode easy, find a bug task should take 3 mins. There’s isn’t anything hard about these codility tests, really, if you can’t do it, you won’t pass onsite

What does "go through the review" mean here ?

Pretty easy, if you're able to ace it you should be able to do well onsite.
