Process
Very standard interview questions asked by overworked engineers. I wish I had stopped the interview process halfway through, but I decided to push through.
The actual questions felt fair, but the line of questioning felt like a one-sided interrogation.
Questions
Array question based on prefix sum.
Graph question. This is a straightforward question, but you are expected to be quick with your implementation. At the end, it will depend on your interviewer's ability to explain the question.
