# Implement the authentication service
class AuthService:
def validate_user (...):
pass
We need to implement secure user authentication. Walk me through how you'd approach this.

The Modern Take on Interviews

Evaluate engineering skills and problem solving rather than memorization in a collaborative environment. Just like a real job.

Concept Discussion

Fundamental Knowledge
What are the differences between GET and POST requests?

Candidates demonstrate fundamental knowledge through voice-driven discussions, starting general and drilling down into details. Just like a real interview.

Vibe Coding Competence

Coding Agent

Let's implement the auth service. What should we do with the salt?

async def hash_password (self, password: str ):
salt = await gen_salt (self.salt_rounds)
return await hash (password, salt)
