First full round · see where you stand

Research Engineer · Anthropic40 min planned

Set up the room

We’ve set it up the way we’d suggest. Change what you like; we’ll tell you if a choice makes the feedback less useful.

Length

This practice round is 40 minutes.

Problem

Based on how this company interviews.

Difficulty

Senior, as planned for this job.

Who runs it

Someone you trust can take the interviewer seat.

How you’ll talk

Use voice for spoken practice, or text for a written conversation.

Hints while you work

A coach can nudge you privately. It never reaches your feedback.

The brief, in short

Open the full brief →

Expect to be pushed on

Change a constraint and ask how the approach changes.
Probe time and space costs.

Do

  • Restate constraints, choose a simple approach, and reserve time for a manual trace.
  • Write clear code, then state complexity and check boundary cases verbally.

Avoid

  • Do not optimize before you establish a correct baseline.
  • Do not let time pressure replace explicit assumptions and edge-case checks.

Why this round, now

You picked this round yourself, so there’s no suggestion attached to it.

What we’re watching this round

States a feasible approach before coding and adjusts it when constraints matter.

Done when

Finish the full 40-minute round at their level.
