Interview
There are a few rounds to pass. The first is the standard coding challenge. It was comparatively easier than most other round ones, however, they require a perfect completion. I, unfortunately, didn't make it past this round, so I cannot offer anymore details.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was a question that essentially asked us to make a count of contiguous subarrays of a certain type from an array.
3 technical questions about computer science one was about python linked lists and another was about something else but I forgot what it was about and why do I have to type 30 words this is stupid just to see the website.
Received a passive request to meet on the role and agreed to hear more. I did not apply. During the call, the recruiter was rude and sounded audibly annoyed. Insisted on me answer questions on why I was qualified before even hearing more about the position, company, and why I should be interested. Felt as if she was clearly agitated with my answers. Then preceded to explain the team structure in not the best light, and let me know that she would follow up if interested. I received a standard not moving forward email this morning, and I was not interested in proceeding anyway.

Question 1
Basic background questions. The issue is with the style and tone rather than the qualifying questions.
