The recruiter initially replied super fast (like within a few mins) to set up interviews and what not. After the interview she vanished. I followed up a few times and no reply whatsoever. Have at least some decency to give an update. Shows a bit how the company’s culture is I guess. Was a bit doubtful to work for such an industry, but luckily dodged a bullet.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- ordered array from 0 to 9 with one missing element. how would you find the missing element?
- iterate and if i != numbers[i] return the number
- how would you make it more efficient for a very large array?
- binary search
- fetch from an api (gitlab api with projects)
- print the name
- print the names but ordered (names are in lowercase and uppercase), to sort you can use localCompare
- group by namespace (object is like: [{name: 'hello', namespace: { id: 1 }}]
- can use group by, or iterate and put into an object
- code review: dayofmonth function
- it had like if (month ==2) { day += 31 }, etc etc
- propose better solution, leap year, array with preset dates to be added like: [0, 31, 28, etc]
My interview experience with Super Technologies was positive: the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, and the team remained professional, transparent, and respectful throughout every round.
However, after completing the entire interview process for a role explicitly posted in Madrid, Spain, I was rejected because the hiring manager ultimately selected a candidate based in Zagreb, Croatia.
The job description clearly stated Madrid as the location. If the team was open to hiring outside Madrid, that should have been indicated upfront. Instead, candidates were guided through a full interview cycle under a location requirement that was ultimately disregarded, resulting in a significant waste of time and effort.

Question 1
live coding exercice -> system design -> behavioral interview
Got three rounds:
- Recruiter
- Live coding
- System design
Recruiter was nice enough, live coding was OK, pretty easy task and the interviewer gave good conversation. When taking the system design, I encountered an Engineering Manager from which was very hard to extract information about the design at hand. I gave alternative solutions and reasoned out loud, reaching a solution that had issues but was workable.
Got turned down without much reasoning about.

Question 1
Fine tune a system that receives betting events (be sure to ask about the details on how do those events arrive as my interviewer did not mention them until I produced my solution)
