Process

A phone interview with brief questions about my resume was conducted.

A few days later, I was invited for an on-site interview.

I had two one-hour technical interviews. Since they didn't go so well, I was escorted out afterward.

Questions

Phone interview:

  • Code up the merge step in merge sort.
  • Conceptually describe how you would implement an LRU cache.

On site:

  • An extremely tricky question I am still working on.
  • Implement in-order traversal of a binary search tree.
  • Implement a schedule that takes as input some number of appointments within a 24-hour period and outputs all the free blocks of time.
