Welcome to the final phase with Defacto.
It's time to code and to hack something together. Let's find something cool to work on, sit down 2h30 and make it happen. At the end of the hackathon, you will present the result to the rest of the team, and there will be some questions.
We can work on anything as long as we're motivated to work on it and it is ambitious.
We believe this is an exercise that is aligned with many qualities we're looking for
- turn an ambitious project into something fun, simple and doable in few hours
- leverage your team by breaking down the projects so that we can work in parallel
- focus on delivering something meaningful
How to prepare for it ?
- [ ] ASAP, send your whatsapp to [email protected]. We will create a thread with the people you'll be working with to find a cool project. Don't hesitate to throw stupid and crazy ideas.
- [ ] Find a 3h time-window in our schedule. The sooner, the better !
- [ ] To collaborate together during the interview
What are we evaluating for ?
- leadership: define the project, motivate your teammate, organize the team work
- technical: design, code structure and debugging
- business: focus on doing something meaningful
- productivity: the goal is to deliver at the end
- cultural fit: capability of working together and disagreeing on some topics
