You don't need to solve 1000 problems of 1 topic.
Just solve in the ratio of 50, 30, 20.
50% Easy level
30% Medium
20% hard.

Once you're done with the above, solve company specific problems.

Hello! I joined a company in the UK 6 months ago, and received a £20,000 gross sign on bonus - clause associated to this however was that I stay for a minimum of 12 months. Unfortunately, the role is really proving to be the wrong fit, and I am looking to leave.

Question for you all - if I resign, I assume I would be expected to pay back the sign on bonus despite me only receiving approx 12k after tax. Anyone know the process for a tax clawback for something like this? Thanks in advance!
