I'm genuely interested, what kind of test could that be? Some tests they have gave me in several interviews:
- Online shops.
- Hackerrank questions.
- Read from a big log file in an efficient manner with Python (did it but there was also a 3-4 hour on-site interview).
Any test that:
1) is similar to the work in the day-to-day role
2) doesn't require more than a 1-2 hour time commitment from a candidate
3) is interesting
HackerRank questions typically don't meet criteria 1 or 3. The best tests are often ones that the engineering team has designed themselves.
