Phone Screen.
She asked about my project, then moved on to the coding question: "Remove duplicates from an array."
I said I would insert elements into a set. Then she asked how to implement a set. I replied that I would use a HashSet.
Next, she asked what a HashTable was and its time complexity. I did not know to use two pointers to modify the array in place, and she gave me lots of hints.
That is probably why I was rejected.
