Entrevista
Interview was several stages, first it was an hour long online text of some mcqs and 2 peoblems to solve, then i passed a certain score so was proceeded to do 2 interviews with 2 junior software engineers. First interview was good, second one I was actually fasting and tired since it was ramadan so I did really badly, what surprised me was that the interviewer mocked me and told me you seem to know nothing about this topic (was hash tables)

The process started with an online HackerRank assessment. The main coding question involved partitioning an array of server capacities into K contiguous groups while minimizing the maximum group sum. The solution required binary search on the answer combined with a greedy validation function. The assessment focused on algorithms, problem solving, and time complexity analysis.
