I applied online and they immediately moved me to a video interview. I'm not sure if this was due to a previous internship application or if it's standard procedure.

I passed the first interview and then received an email inviting me to a virtual interview day. This day included three eliminatory interviews: algorithm, system design, and HR. If you didn't pass one, you wouldn't proceed to the next.

My first interview was for algorithms. The problem was fairly easy, and I solved it within 15 minutes. The interviewer then asked a follow-up question, which I also managed to solve before the interview concluded. The interviewer approved my solution.

However, there was a slight issue. When I was writing the code and mentioned I would revisit a condition at the end to correct it if needed, the interviewer consistently prevented me from doing so. He stated it might be incorrect, and I pointed out that I was aware of this (as I had already explained) and planned to fix it once the function was fully written. Which I did.

I expected to proceed to the next interview, system design, since I had solved and coded two problems within the allotted time. Instead, I received an email informing me of my rejection.

I was taken aback by this news and asked to schedule a call to receive feedback on the interview, which is permitted. However, the recruiter has yet to respond.

I've been told that it's possible to contest a decision and potentially retake the interview if you believe it was unfair. I do not plan to pursue this option.

1st interview: Check if a string is written using an alphabet.

2nd interview: Check if a person on a map can get to another location on the map in X moves (without and with obstacles).
