Seriously, been working as a software developer for 9 years now and never passed a single coding test.

The jobs I got were always the ones giving me weekend projects or just no coding test at all.

I have a job opportunity that looks exciting but they sent me this coding test link and I know I’m gonna fail for sure. Any tips aside from the obvious (practicing in advance on leetcode etc)?

      Never heard of a countdown timer. Usually I’ve seen these either as whiteboard problems in which interviewers will help you if you’re struggling and be forgiving of the stress the situation creates, or you get days to complete a task you turn in later.

      The ticking clock is weird and unnecessary
