Snowplow Wordpress technical exercise instructions

Snowplow Wordpress technical exercise instructions

Hello! Our exercise is intentionally high level. We'd like you to demonstrate your knowledge of displaying different types of content in an efficient, effective and secure manner. It also creates a basis on which to discuss these approaches at interview. You don't need to worry too much about what the page itself would be used for.

The exercise

Create a Custom Post Type called Snowplow Exercise (slug: snowplow-exercise) that displays the following elements:

  • the page title
  • the page content
  • 5 blog post teasers in a column format, with any information you think relevant
  • 3 customer reviews in a carousel, including the logo and a link to their site

We use the plugin Advanced Custom Fields to create the customer review content - there is a free version you can use for this exercise.

Please send us all files required to run this test locally. As a guide, we're expecting you to spend 4 +/- 2 hours on this task. We're looking to get a sense of how you solve problems using Wordpress. Most importantly, we're looking forward to speaking with you about it!
