Interview
I am excited about interview process. Interviewer was very friendly and helps me to understand hiring process a lot. First general HR manager have contacted me, tell about the company and role of the SW engineer, then asked to tell about myself to see "soft skills" - ability to communicate and check how I act in different situations at work. Then we agreed about technical interview. Tech interviewer checks programming skills.

The technical round hit me with a classic array manipulation problem: moving zeroes to the end without disrupting the order of non-zero elements. As I tackled it, I felt a wave of familiarity wash over me; I had just practiced a similar challenge on PracHub. The rest of the interview followed a straightforward path, with some easy behavioral questions sprinkled in. Overall, it felt very easy, but I wasn’t quite the right fit for what they needed, so I didn’t receive an offer.
