Anyone already gone through the Codility test? I haven't coded small, functional non-specialised programs since 3rd year (I finished my Masters year in June) and am scared it's going to be on the level of Leetcode Hards :pinch:. The demo program was easy enough but from my experience in applying,it always is, and the real assessment throws you for a loop!

I would advice you create an account with Codility and try some of their questions to get used to them

Asides the feedback, they've told you you've moved to the next round?

They have not informed me of moving to the final stages, keeping fingers crossed

Thank you. I was moved to the job simulation stage after passing the coding test, however, I don't know if I made it through the job simulation test yet, waiting for the result.

It says my coding showed confidence, I cannot remember the timeline I was expected to take the test except I check

What feedback did you get??

Came in the form of an email with a report link attached.
Basically said along the lines of having a strong grasp of the fundamentals. Didn't expand massively.
Awaiting to hear the outcome now though.

Have you received anything?
