Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Talked with the recruiter for the phone screen for 30 minutes, then scheduled the tech screen.

Met with a CB engineer for the tech screen.

Did not get past that step. Had a meeting scheduled to discuss feedback. That meeting was cancelled. Then, got an email the following week saying the team wasn't interested.

Questions

  1. Implement an in-memory file system.

  2. What time complexities are involved?

  3. How would I implement it as an API on something like AWS?
