It's still leetcode actually but it's less rounds and more leniency, also I think the system design round is easier. Probably LC mediums. GS in particular has a hackerrank algorithm test before you even get an interview
I actually didn't do Ikea interview cause the pay wasn't as high as offers I already had on the table and I had to do a gauntlet of interviews with cacs from Sweden. So I passed
Are you in the data science/machine learning field?

What part? closures? ES6? asynchronous programming? Keep grinding

Pure JS. It just hasn't clicked yet. Or just when I think it does, something or some code contradicts the stuff I just learned. I'll do these quizzes and challenges and it's like some of these questions just defy logic. IDK ..

So anyways, I took a step back from JS and Web Developing and looked into the C# course (on Sololearn) and it makes waaay more sense and things "click" more for me. I'm trying to figure out why is that, being as the general consensus is that JavaScript is easier to learn for newbies :jbhmm:

Edit: idk maybe it's the local/global variables that make it difficult to grasp with JS

Could be because of the verbosity and fairly rigid structure of C#. For some people, like me, that's easier to grasp.

Just remember code in a function (local) can see code outside of it (global), but not vice versa.
