Process

I applied online.

Online assessment followed by two back-to-back hour-long interviews via Zoom. Each interview consisted of two behavioral questions followed by a coding question. The coding questions were easy to medium, and involved time and space complexity analysis. Received update two days later.

Questions

Have you worked with GenAI tools before?

Given n arrays of k elements (not necessarily sorted), merge them into a sorted array.

Given 3 arrays, return all duplicate elements. Follow up question: What if we extended the input to n arrays instead?

Tell me about a time you received feedback/criticism from a manager and how did you handle it?
