Seriously, been working as a software developer for 9 years now and never passed a single coding test.

The jobs I got were always the ones giving me weekend projects or just no coding test at all.

I have a job opportunity that looks exciting but they sent me this coding test link and I know I'm gonna fail for sure. Any tips aside from the obvious (practicing in advance on leetcode etc)?

Yeah and how many applicants do you have a day? Hundreds? Tens? How long is your average posting open?

Cause I do interviews as well - the candidates are many and the positions few.
