Round 5: technical 2 LPS.
Technical. This threw me off. got some bad JAVA code and was told to correct it.
This dude came in, no greetings, pasted some crappy JAVA code and told me to improve it.
this took me off guard as I didnt knew JAVA much. I did asked him if theres something in javascript, typeScript or python or C/C++ but he was like I just know JAVA
I was able to rectify some logic err's but I wasnt able to figure out alot of syntax errs this just shattered my confidance right away and messed up his LP's as well.

got a rejection after 4 days. -_-
that last round was pretty weird to me.
