Process
They were pretty fast. I applied in late January-early February and they responded within the next week.
I got to the phone interview, which took about an hour. Some of the questions were to design simple algorithms, e.g., given a sequence of numbers, print the non-duplicated elements. They also kept asking about the time and space efficiency of the implementation and tried to have you come up with better ones.
Questions
Given a sequence of numbers, is it possible to recover the original tree structure of the array before it became an array using inorder traversal? What about preorder traversal?
