Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California
October 1, 2022
Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I applied online. A recruiter reached out to set up a HackerRank interview. I had five days to complete the challenge. There were two questions to be answered over 70 minutes. These were LeetCode Hard level. I did not finish either of them; they were just too hard.
Questions
I'm not sure how much I can share:
- Longest palindrome from other palindromes.
- Dynamic programming: task sharing between two people for maximum reward.
