Online Programming Test that lasts 1h and 11 min maximum.
The questions are under pressure, hard, requires knowing things by heart and irrelevant for real life applications.
The time is too short for such questions. And the web "IDE" (if you can even call it that) is TestDome, which works awfully. You are required to use your own IDE.
Not to mention you're required to record yourself and your screen (which is pretty sketchy and feels a privacy violation for just a job interview). Recording with the browser uses a lot of computing power and if you have a laptop or a normal-ish computer it will struggle with the browser + IDE.
The "puzzles" sometimes are weirdly worded and have unnecessarily long, complex and sometimes incomplete descriptions (which you will realize when it's too late, when testing).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Algorithm to find the count of inner nodes (nodes with no children) to a tree which is a list where list[i] is the parent of node i.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Profitap (Amsterdam) in Mar 2025
Interview
Terrible online coding assessment environment and questions. Passed to the next stage where I was told I would expect a interview with the Hiring Manager. They cancelled that interview on the premise that the job was closed and no longer hiring. They opened a same posting within 2 days time.
