    Hello All
    Actually i got a chance for a good job
    but they sent me a task that i can't understand what they want exactly
    and the most words that i can't figure is
    "
    YOUR TASK is to create a logical code structure that ALLOWS FOR this
    project to scale PERFORMANCE-WISE."

    so any one can explain , they want to code in unity or use something out side unity
    thanks

    Code that can scale and still maintain performance is what it sounds like to me.

    If you have to ask that you are most certainly not the right person for this job for now.

    The single sentence from their request that you posted here doesn't specify engine or language. Just that you create a code structure.

    Sorry how you judge someone like that without knowing his level of english and not sure about the meaning and want to ask native speakers to make him sure the meaning he understood is right or not
    please don't behave like that

    I'm sorry to say, if the problem was you couldn't understand the instructions due to a language barrier, this issue will be an ongoing and significant problem. While the instructions appear intentionally open ended, they should have been pretty clear and simple to understand. If you get the job you should expect far more complicated instructions for the actual work you would be doing.

    Being told the truth is always a form of help, even if you don't like what is said.

    He's not a Unity employee and can state his opinion, as long as it's not breaking the forum rules, which it's not.

    Hrmm... where's this position at?

    I bet I could answer the question adequately without having to come to the forums and ask other people for help.

    Come on, give me a chance!

    What does this even have to do with Unity?


    Also I would recommend working on improving your English, and being less defensive. You're going to have a really bad time if you can't understand simple instructions from your employer, and you're going to have an even worse time if you can't handle people pointing out things you're not good at.

    i am sorry but he has every right to judge you. we all do.

    if you dont know what they are telling you. because of a language. then your not cut for the job as simple as that.
    if you dont know what it mean's Performance - wise scaling your Not cut out for the job.

    sorry to say this but you're simply not cut out for a job in that company if you dont know this.

    and also what has any of this to do with unity?

    It's at www dot get-Interviewees-To-Write-Our-Code-For-Free dot com. Well, maybe not -- maybe the "logical" before "structure" is a hint to only describe what and where various data structures need to be swapped in, which could be a decent question.

    But when the interview process involves an hour or more of actual work, aren't the magic words "we'll pay you"?
