Software Engineer Interview Experience - Australia

April 1, 2024
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online and was reached out to by a recruiter.

There were quite a few stages:

A recruiter phone call, an online coding and system design interview by a 3rd party company, then 2 coding interviews by Atlassian, and finally, a system design interview and behavioral interview.

Questions

You are working on a video game where the player has to go through a level without falling into any obstacles.

The player starts at position zero and can move in three ways:

  • L (left) => one position to the left
  • R (right) => one position to the right
  • J (jump) => move two positions, in the direction of the previous move

The player starts at position 0 and the exit will always be at position 10.

The instructions never lead the player outside the level boundaries, and the first move is always right.

Write a function that, given the instructions and the positions of the obstacles, returns True if the instructions lead to the exit position, and False otherwise.
