Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Toptal nel mese di gen 2016
Colloquio
First quick call to check my English with a boring, rigid guy. After that I was to solve some algorithms on Codility which were not even close to the role I applied for, although I somehow managed to figure out decent solutions. Next, live coding and tech screening session was scheduled, but it lasted just for 3 minutes. They do not allow ANY inspiration when you solve those algorithms, which I admitted to have on the last task (looked for a formula) they finish recrutation immediately if it is the case. It was very negative experience and I do not recommend this company.

An integer X and a non-empty zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers are given. We are interested in which elements of A are qual to X and which are different from X. The goal is to split array A into two parts, such that the number of elements equal to X in the first part is the same as the number of elements different from X in the other part. More formally, we are looking for an index K such that: 0 ≤ K < N and the number of elements equal to X in A[0..K−1] is the same as the number of elements different from X in A[K..N−1]. For K = 0, A[0..K−1] does not contain any elements.
Tech screening and then tech interview, leetcode style questions. Then there was a take home project.. not in-person. all done remotely and online. Good interviewers, helpful, easy process and good communication
I applied to Toptal and I'm having an interview days later. What can I prepare for now? I wanna get some details or tips from you. Please help me with your toptal screening interview experience.
