@May 他们的简历，请你点击进去 Candidates 数据库的 CV 栏目点击pdf文件在浏览器中查看即可。以下是按我个人非常直觉的优先排行，逻辑好像是：电话主动沟通过优先、区块链项目经验优先、然后是懂中文优先。建议你自由重新排序。

📺 = Lark video conference minutes available

🐉 = comment by Terry after Lark interview

🍚 = have existing stable job

💥 = open to partnership

🧪 = algo or AI trading experience

⚓ = willing to accept Coderbyte-powered online coding challenge

🍉 = Lark video conference call reviewed by May

💕 = DONE both I. and II. Assessments; James rated okay

👎 = Failed James I. Coding Review

👍 = Passed James I. Coding Review

🦑 Interview Only Nothing Else Yet

🐣 coding challenge 👍. Finished in 25m, the [🐉2nd] fastest so far. [🐉Ringo is 21m]

🐣 我重新给👍了。他做题的那天突然遇到3个cheater，做的很快。我看他的recording，他的屏幕都没把scroll bar拖到底看完题目就开始写了，而且两道题都写的特别快，25分钟就搞定了。所以我猜他是和另外3个一样，已经知道题目了，所以给fail了。现在看看，他是PHD，可能不需要作弊。我那天有点bias，现在改正了

🐣 coding challenge 👍. Sorry I marked him a cheater, but he didn’t cheat. Coderbyte encounter server error, not able to run code. He coded in PyCharm and pasted into editor.

@James Yang FYI. He replied with the following. He’s a PhD. Would that change your mind about his cheating status?

Hi Terry,

It is OK, as I learned from this assessment and the questions were fun.

But in terms of copy and pasting in Coderbyte: The editor in Coderbyte has problems. I tried to print the input to see what I am working with, but I wasn’t successful. It didn’t work. So, I had to use my own IDE (PyCharm) in order to solve the problems and then pasted the solution to the Coderbyte. I solved the problems myself as I already solved problems on LeetCode.

Anyway, this weak assessment strategy shows how it will be in the future if I wanted to work with your startup!

Hope you will find the best candidate.

Best,

Mohammad

  • What’s your strength and weakness (from your own point of view, and/or from friends/family/co-workers)? — diligent hardworking — as reflected from his publication that he did. very dedicated goal-oriented. self-starter. perhaps too idealistic or perfectionist.

🐉 2022-09-22T21:00:00.000-07:00 see if how the Lark con-call goes. He refused to work on the Coding TTA. He’s too pride to be “timed”

2022-09-15T19:21:00.000-07:00 Hi Terry,

Sorry but this conflicts with several things I avoid with interviews:

  • timed assessments (I’m a thinker not a race horse),
  • writing code for free that could be commercialized by the company (especially code you lack, since your data downloader is buggy),
  • moving goal posts (goes against good faith). Sorry but I’m no longer interested in the position. Many startups engage in interview scams, and this seems like one. Too bad as I have almost finished the code.

Best,

Jozsef

🐉 Interview standard questions and answers
  • Tell me a time when you disagree with either your team, manager, or colleague, and how you work through it together — clear things up early on — no harboring ill feeling — prefer problem solving — solve things first and move on — pretty smooth myself — normally work with relational peoeple.
  • Tell me a time when you encounter a challenge and how you conquer it — two things combined, such as heavy rock not to be cracked. for the weigh, i try to tihink before i attack the problem. try to examine from the outside — observe it first — once examine it — try to come up with ideas — don’t stop there — at least 2-3 approaches — pick approach keep others in mind — start impleentation cracking — carefully — do as a good as possible — perfectionists — nothing is perfect — but try to polish it — try to remove mighty goal as much as possible. —- coding even doesn’t work — overcoming obsticles — keep a stone mind that way — not get discouraged.
  • how would you characterize your leadership traits, what u consider to be good leader? — done a lot of teaching or coodinator for other lecturers. lead by example, or epect others are reasonable and reliable. myself as reasonable and reliable. — can be changes in plan, but if i promise something or achomblish something in certain time - if boss tell me deadline — then i try to design the around the deadline — not to ignore deadline — work around deadline.
  • What’s your strength and weakness (from your own point of view, and/or from friends/family/co-workers)? — high standard or asking someone else to meet high standard for others. weakness — too introverted sometimes — seems too detached sometimes — in cocoon when working shut off sometimes it seems — when heavily something only check email twice a day — but if working with teams on Slack so the communication is not as detached — consistancy and maximalist giving my best on anything even not shack the world. push to be as good as
  • When can you start your position? When can you start a new job? — available ASAP.
  • What’s your compensation in the current/previous job? / What’s your expected compensation? — 92k - 120k CAD/year; 85k is the the absolute low startup.
