It's a remote position! Glad you're excited about Rust too. Just started learning last year, but getting the hang of it now. Good luck on your job hunt, openSourceLuvr.

Is it remote or in-person? The pandemic has made me appreciate remote work even more.

I had a great experience interviewing at ABC Inc. They gave me a Rust coding challenge which focused on data structures and algorithms, and then an interview on Rust memory safety and design patterns. I also met the team during a virtual roundtable.

How much Rust experience do you need to apply? Does experience with other languages matter?

ABC Inc. encourages developers familiar with Rust, but also values experience in C++ or similar low-level languages. They care about understanding system programming concepts, design patterns, and language-specific knowledge.

Do you offer training as a Rust developer at ABC Inc.? Or do they expect you to learn the language on your own?

[parent.id] ABC Inc. has an internal Rust training program for new hires, covering concepts and advanced features. It's expected that new hires have a basic understanding, and they'll help the rest with their own program.
