Almost everyone will have an online assessment, in my case not DSA, but a repo for you to do some refactoring and add some functionalities. Camera, microphone must be turned on. No human join the interview with you. You have to complete the requirement in 60 minutes and push to the designated gitHub repo.

I applied for the job and received an automated email one minute later with a technical challenge using AI.
They provided a large repository for download and asked me to keep my webcam and screen recording active for 90 minutes (probably for training AI models).
They didn't provide any tools. You had to use your own tokens for the tests for 90 minutes without knowing if anyone was going to see them. Basically, that's what happened to everyone who left a review here.
I understand and like pair programming with AI, but doing it this way is impersonal, probably the worst way, and zero privacy-oriented. You never get feedback. It's one of the worst things I've seen this year.
