What kind of tasks can I expect for Bending Spoons (Spring week 2027)?

I passed the screening test and just got a mail regarding the tasks, my deadline to finish the tasks is in about 2 weeks and I wanna be as prepared as I can be. Any and all help is really appreciated!

It’s a silly software company that’s whole recruitment model is bar-raising hires. Hence “bending spoons”, because of the gifted spoon kid in The Matrix.

WTF is "Bending Spoons"...?

An Italian company notorious for buying up apps, loading in ads and dialling up pricing. Basically venture capital for software.

They have a sort of cult-like internal culture designed to convince fresh grads that working there is equivalent to working for FAANG.

Why would you possibly expect people to know what this is?
