Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Got a call from a recruiter who liked my resume.
After a high-level discussion, the role seemed like a good fit for me, so she asked me to slot out some availability for a phone technical screen.
The phone screen was straightforward. I received a phone call and a link to a Coderpad.io doc where I was asked to describe and code an algorithm.
Next steps will involve an on-site for several hours.
Questions
The question was basically inorder traversal. How would I write out the nodes of a binary tree from left to right?
