December 1, 2014

Process

I submitted the application in mid-October and received notification for a phone interview about a month and a half later. The interview was finally scheduled for December 12th.

The whole process was easy and relaxing. The only problem was that the speaker on the other side did not work very well; I could hardly hear the interviewer's voice.

Questions

  1. Merge two sorted arrays. This problem has been mentioned several times in other reports.

  2. Find the largest difference in an array, with the constraint that the larger number must come later in the array.

  3. Verify if you can find two numbers in an array that sum to a given number N. After I provided a trivial O(n^2) answer, I was asked if a better method exists.
