Hackerrank technical problem

Nov 18, 2020 3 Comments

I was doing my Twilio sceening test on Hackerrank, not too dificult. The problem is I wrote a function to return a string and the output was not showing tje string but each character of the string. So of course it failed all the test cases.

The code was correct as I ran it on my local machine. What do I do now? Any hopes of getting the job???

Ex:
'this'
Turned into:
't'
'h'
'i'
's'

      Me neither.

      Because I’d rather work for companies and people who have the maturity of talking face to face and have a discussion like adults about how I may be fit or unfit to solve their most pressing problems or whether I am fit or unfit with their culture.

      Sending an online assessment or take home data sets is just a childish way to determine whether someone can do a job. These tasks may never reflect the real problem at the company in the first place. Moreover, if they decide you didn’t do well, they just ghost you or send and auto reject, which means they don’t respect the candidates spending hours to days to weeks doing their shitty assignments to even give a 10 minute feedback.
