I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Machina Labs
Interview
It took almost a month just to get to the second interview. There was a lot of miscommunication, technical problems, and lengthy times without communication. The first interview was with a hiring manager and I was not told that it would be technical but it was easy enough. The hiring manager mentioned that the company had openings for front end and back end, so I decided to go for the front end role. The second part was a take home assignment. It was supposed to be a few hours only but after reviewing the requirements, it was clearly about a day and a half. There was an option to do front end only but the instructions were poor. The take home assignment follow up interview asked nothing about the front end portion of my code. No more interviews after that.
There was first a take home project that you complete which involved creating a full-stack application. Then, there was a livetechnical assessment, where I was given a fair problem to solve.

Question 1
What is the difference between a Unique and Shared pointer
Phone screen with recruiter, 1 hour coding interview. The connection was bad on their end. I finished coding in 30 minutes and the interviewer wanted to cut the interview right away afterwards. Ghosted for more than a month since then.
