  • Database/models

  • CRUD functionality

  • Validations

  • Routes

  • Controller

  • Basic UI or REST API

  • Appropriate associations

  • Basic error handling


Step 3 – Short Coding Questions

Answer or demonstrate the following:

  • README with setup instructions

  • Source code

  • Database/schema details

  • Short explanation of your approach

  • Screenshots or demo link, if available

REcommended Time

Assessment: 60–90 minutes

Practical coding task: 3–5 hours

Candidates are expected to write their own code and should be able to explain their implementation during the technical discussion.

Evaluation

We will primarily evaluate:

Ruby/Rails knowledge + Coding ability + Database understanding + Problem-solving + Code quality + Practical thinking

We are more Interested in how you approach a real Project than in Completing a large theoretical questionnaire.
