Process

This was for a Dropbox Ignite Apprentice Program.

It started with online timed questions that scaled in difficulty.

Next were three rounds of interviews:

  • The first was with two engineers who asked LeetCode-style questions.
  • The second was a debugging session.
  • The last was a behavioral round.

Then the recruiter ghosted me.

Questions

Design an LRU.
