I wish this company succeeded with its mission, but it turned into a variant of Hackerrank I feel. I hate leetcode/hackerrank type interviews. On the hiring side of things where the company I work for screens candidates this way; it sucks. I would have loved to see a test of more practical programming experience.

Candidates spend their time on stupid coding questions all day instead of actually coding something useful or that they can learn from. I have a relative doing exactly this. No idea how to build a simple RESTful API, yet spends all his time on Hackerrank posting on linkedIn how he's in the top 'X' percent.

When they get hired and put on a "real world" project they are absolutely lost :(.

I also tried Triplebyte after seeing ads on Reddit. Passed a few tests and nothing really ever came of it other than an email.

To me a big part of the appeal to Triplebyte is that their variant is one that does reflect real world programming. Their general coding quiz shows you written code and asks you to find the bug or fill in the blank - things very similar to day to day activities when working on an existing application. AFAIK there isn't anything about tricky algorithms, either.
