Was invited to a Codility assessment, the tests were not difficult per say, however, I was forced into writing code in a language that I wasn't too familiar with. As a result, performed poorly, the job description stated "Fluent in either C# or Java." and the assessment beforehand stated I could use many different languages. They should have been clearer about only being able to use c# at the start of interview process.

Really difficult interview process
Expect difficult questions about data structures, algorithms, complex situations. Big O notation etc,
It’s a really intense interview with some difficult interviewers in my opinion. It was mainly a conversation between 2 senior engineers where they ask you to compare data structures and the tradeoffs.
