Pretty embarrassing attitude, except for initial meeting. The tech person rushes to the test before having any kind of conversation, and expects you to share your screen (for a moment, I'm not exactly a developer, and my computer has lot of confidential information on it). I can assume same one-sided ethics would apply to contracts if I proceeded doing business with them.
The process started with the video screening, You record yourself answering some Questions. After that, they sent case study, but the instructions and the timeline were very vague. They sent me a rejection after I sent the case study which I worked on For a very short time, out of worry to miss the deadline.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Generic video screening talk about yourself, your experience, etc.
Many steps, rigorous. Good communication (highly automated system), although the timing was unclear. HR screening, online profile. Request to give access to personal Gmail calendar AND ANY CALENDAR ACCESSED THROUGJ GMAIL.
Recruiter made very tempting offer, than as soon as profile was complete (took hours, over days), opportunity evaporated.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Toptal (Dubai) in Mar 2022
Interview
Very technical interview, focused on DSA questions. Less time to solve problems (only 15 minutes were given to solve two ~medium leetcode problems). Focus on studing for technical interview and practicing leetcode.
