So another day another coding interview test. This one was from the company Booking.com located in Amsterdam. The position is full-stack developer so I think I benefited from having a more general knowledge.

The test included 18 multiple choice questions and only 2 actual coding tests. I felt like I got through the 18 multiple choice questions quickly. That left me a good amount of time for the actual coding questions. I decided to use Ruby today. I love how Ruby looks and it feels great when you solve a problem and the code looks nice and clean.

That was the case with the first coding question, my answer was short, simple, and passed all the tests. That said I think it could have been more efficient. 

The final question I kind of screwed up in my reading of it. I remember someone on here was saying sometimes they just want to see how you think. So I submitted my not quite right answer anyways. Had the question been what I thought it was my answer would have been perfect and very clean.

Though the actual problem was slightly harder than what I was thinking.

So I can say my performance was better than yesterday but definitely far from where I want to be.

I think I might start using Ruby more for other stuff. I realize it doesn't have the best performance but I just like the feel of it. Looking at a Ruby script everything just seems to quickly make sense. I've definitely used Javascript a lot more than Ruby but despite that Ruby just looks and reads better to me.
