Process
Received a phone call from a recruiter.
The next stages were an interview with the Hiring Manager, followed by four technical onsite interviews.
Overall, I got the impression that their interviewers were not excited about their own product.
Questions
Technical onsite interviews were related to data structures and algorithms.
- Implement Pascal's triangle in any of your chosen IDE.
- Implement matrix traversal in a zig-zag manner.
