How do I pass a coding test? (lemmy.world)

Seriously, been working as a software developer for 9 years now and never passed a single coding test.

The jobs I got were always the ones giving me weekend projects or just no coding test at all.

I have a job opportunity that looks exciting but they sent me this coding test link and I know I'm gonna fail for sure. Any tips aside from the obvious (practicing in advance on leetcode etc)?

Yeah idk why that comment is being upvoted so hard... It sounds very weird like a copy pasta or a bot. He didn't even answer anything 😅

I like how they said it wasn't a flex when it clearly was only a flex

Really, it isn’t meant to be. I’m Just trying to say it’s not always the candidate at fault.

This is one example from a great many interviews I’ve had in my time, most of which went much better.
