Guys, Prepare Yourselves. Nigerian Companies Now Test With Data Structures. by tensazangetsu20(m): 12:41pm On Aug 12, 2020 |
I have written two code tests this week both from Nigerian companies and the questions were data structures and algorithms questions from places like leetcode and hackerrank. This were high paying jobs so it's understandable. Guys if you are learning to code, please set some time out to learn data structures and algorithms. It's becoming important. I bet very soon all companies will implement it and use it as a standard to hire developers. They both went horribly. I used a brute force approach and my solutions were only able to work for a certain number of test cases. I doubt I would be getting called back but I am going to take this seriously and learn this. 1 Like |

You'd be surprised. From what I've heard most don't really care about the final result, they are more interested in the explanation and approach to the problem. Even if you don't get it right they might still consider you suitable. Besides, a brute force algorithm that works is better than a better one that doesn't. 1 Like |

For me, as a developer, developing complex websites will increase your knowledge about data structures and algorithms. The way you approach problems matters as well 3 Likes |

Data Structure/Algorithm test is part of developer recruitment process just like most job applicants go through aptitude test. In some cases, the company might get back to you for the next stage even if you don't pass all the test cases. I was once called for the next stage of one recruitment even as I didn't pass all the test cases. I pass 12 out of 17 sha. |
