As a part of a job interview I have been asked to create a new account and complete a number of codewars katas. The criteria for completing the given task was "The account you’ve created must contain only listed below kata". |

You should recommend Qualified to your potential employer which is much
better suited for the interview use case: https://www.qualified.io/
Copying your solutions from your "main" account to your "interview"
account, strictly speaking, is a ToS violation and can result in one or
both accounts being restricted.

Some of the katas I have already completed in my main account. Am I
allowed to use my own solutions (all original code with no crossings with
any other users, I have never skipped any katas in neither accounts) from
the main account in the interview account? Or will it count as a violation
of rules?

Qualified does look interesting, but I have no influence on the interviewing process. |

Main reason for penalizing you would be the fact that moderators do not know that both account are yours, and the "interview" account would look from our perspective like someone copying solutions from your main account. You can help by giving the interview account some similar user name, for example your main account would be "Olek", and the interview account would be "Olek-Interview" - this could give mods a hint. You let us know here too, and this also can be helpful. Maybe a small note in the "Skills" or "Name" fields that both accounts are connected. Ideally, you would use your main account for the interview. If you can't, you can create another one, and make it obvious that it is also yours. You risk that some moderator unaware of this conversation will take some action on it, but maybe we could handle this internally until your interview is done. Then you would delete the interview account. |
