Each test will be conducted over 3 hours, during which participants must submit programming source code for 4 algorithm problems. The problems were directly reviewed by LG CNS DX technology experts.

CODE MONSTER is open to applicants regardless of their ‘specifications.’ Anyone who can join within 2 years after final acceptance is eligible to apply. The selected final successful candidates can freely choose their joining date within 2 years from the acceptance date. Desired work departments can also be negotiated.
