Process

The first round is the HireVue Coding test. It includes seven Java-based questions and two video-recorded questions. The solution to the next question depends on how you answered the previous one, so do not skip any and run all the test cases perfectly.

Questions

Questions start with the implementation of a basic split function in Java. Remember, all questions are somewhat linked, and you are asked to copy your code into a local editor, as you might use them later. The difficulty increases with every question. There is no time limit for writing this test, and you can finish it in multiple sittings. The questions were not intended to test your data structure skills but your Java skills.
