Screen candidates with the highest quality questions

We have a very high focus on the quality of questions that test for on-the-job skills. Every question is non-googleable and we have a very high bar for the level of subject matter experts we onboard to create these questions. We have crawlers to check if any of the questions are leaked online. If/ when a question gets leaked, we get an alert. We change the question for you & let you know.

How we design questions

These are just a small sample from our library of 15,000+ questions. The actual questions on this FastAPI Test will be non-googleable.

What will the following Python code output?

Session
File Handling
Dictionary
Solve
 image
The function high_sess should compute the highest number of events per session of each user in the database by reading a comma-separated value input file of session data. The result should be returned from the function as a dictionary. The first column of each line in the input file is expected to contain the user’s name represented as a string. The second column is expected to contain an integer representing the events in a session. Here is an example input file:
Tony,10
Stark,12
Black,25
Your program should ignore a non-conforming line like this one.
Stark,3
Widow,6
Widow,14
The resulting return value for this file should be the following dictionary: { 'Stark':12, 'Black':25, 'Tony':10, 'Widow':14 }
What should replace the CODE TO FILL line to complete the function?

Below are code lines to create a Python function. Ignoring indentation, what lines should be used and in what order for the following function to be complete:
 image

Medium

Recursive Function
Recursion
Dictionary
Lists
Solve
Consider the following Python code:
 image
In the above code, recursive_search is a function that takes a dictionary (data) and a target key (target) as arguments. It searches for the target key within the dictionary, which could potentially have nested dictionaries and lists as values, and returns the value associated with the target key. If the target key is not found, it returns None.

nested_dict is a dictionary that contains multiple levels of nested dictionaries and lists. The recursive_search function is then called with nested_dict as the data and 'target_key' as the target.

What will the output be after executing the above code?

Medium

Stacking problem
Stack
Linkedlist
Solve
What does the below function ‘fun’ does?
 image
A: Sum of digits of the number passed to fun.
B: Number of digits of the number passed to fun.
C: 0 if the number passed to fun is divisible by 10. 1 otherwise.
D: Sum of all digits number passed to fun except for the last digit.

Test candidates on core FastAPI Hiring Test topics

FastAPI Basics: FastAPI is a modern, fast web framework for building APIs with Python. It's built on Starlette and Pydantic, offering high performance and automatic API documentation. Understanding FastAPI basics is crucial for efficient API development.

FastAPI Routing: Routing in FastAPI defines how the application responds to client requests. It allows developers to map URLs to specific functions, enabling clean and organized API structures. Effective routing is essential for creating intuitive and maintainable APIs.

Request Handling: Request handling involves processing incoming HTTP requests in FastAPI. This includes parsing parameters, handling different HTTP methods, and extracting data from request bodies. Proficiency in request handling ensures smooth communication between clients and the API.

Response Handling: Response handling in FastAPI deals with formatting and sending appropriate HTTP responses. It covers status codes, headers, and response bodies. Proper response handling is key to providing clear and consistent API outputs.

Data Validation: FastAPI leverages Pydantic for automatic data validation and serialization. This feature ensures that incoming data meets specified schemas and types. Robust data validation is critical for maintaining data integrity and preventing errors in API operations.

Dependency Injection: Dependency Injection in FastAPI allows for efficient code reuse and separation of concerns. It enables developers to declare dependencies for route functions, promoting modularity and testability. This skill is vital for building scalable and maintainable API architectures.

Authentication and Authorization: Implementing secure authentication and authorization mechanisms is crucial in FastAPI applications. This involves user identification, access control, and protecting sensitive endpoints. Mastery of these concepts is essential for developing secure and reliable APIs.

Database Integration: Integrating databases with FastAPI involves connecting to various database systems and performing CRUD operations. This skill covers ORM usage, query optimization, and managing database connections. Effective database integration is fundamental for data-driven API development.

Asynchronous Programming: FastAPI supports asynchronous programming, allowing for non-blocking I/O operations. This capability significantly enhances performance in I/O-bound applications. Understanding asynchronous concepts is crucial for building high-performance, scalable APIs.

API Documentation: FastAPI automatically generates interactive API documentation using OpenAPI (Swagger) and ReDoc. This feature simplifies API exploration and testing for developers. Proficiency in API documentation practices ensures clear communication of API capabilities and usage.

Python Fundamentals: Strong Python fundamentals are the backbone of FastAPI development. This includes understanding Python syntax, data types, functions, and object-oriented programming. Solid Python skills are essential for effective FastAPI implementation.

Python Data Structures: Proficiency in Python data structures is crucial for efficient data manipulation in FastAPI applications. This covers lists, dictionaries, sets, and their advanced usage. Mastery of data structures enables optimal data handling and processing in API development.

Can I combine multiple skills into one custom assessment?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.

What is the cost of using this test?
