New Level of Interview Hell (reddit.com)
4th stage interview, 2nd coding challenge (first one was in js). Expected completion time: 4 hours, including cloud deployment. Build and style single page with a table of users and a form to add those users via Ajax. "Frontend" must be built with bootstrap and jQuery, none of which I have used in the past 10 years. No css preprocessors or js pipeline, no virtual/docker environment.
