This post was last edited by Anonymous on 2025-10-7 17:31. Just finished the xAI onsite interview today. The coding wasn't particularly difficult, but it was very demanding. I had to solve the problem and make it run within 35-40 minutes. [hide=119] 祀蹓舲 concurrent job scheduler and workers SD: Distributed KV store [/hide=119] I was focusing on communication and explaining my codes while coding and couldn't test/compile them when time was up. 1st coding: Time up and still fixing compilation errors 2nd coding: I was told to go home and finish it (?) Maybe some people can actually complete all the logic and write test cases within 35 minutes without memorizing it... But apparently, that's not me. I can finish the code within an hour or so, but definitely not within 35 minutes. Requesting points.
