A brief phone call with a recruiter. He said the next step would be a CodeSignal assessment. I couldn't get the assessment to work for weeks, for whatever reason. Then it was proctored, which is patronizing and artificial. I stressed to the recruiter that these assessments are not very valuable for us, since they only test us on how well we've internalized certain patterns we almost only see in these tests. He was like, "that's nice."
